Can You Make Bread with Sorghum Flour?

Yes! In fact the only flour in this recipe is sorghum flour. When it comes to baking, most people (myself included) don’t have multiple kinds of uncommon flours sitting around. I want to keep the recipe uncomplicated using only sorghum flour and other common ingredients. 

Gluten-Free Sorghum Bread Ingredients

• Sweet Potato
• Egg
• Pure Vanilla Extract
• Coconut Oil
• Maple Syrup
• Sorghum Flour
• Baking Powder
• Cinnamon Powder
• Sea Salt
• Raisin

Do I Have to Use Sweet Potatoes?

I used sweet potatoes to add extra nutrients, fibre and sweetness to the bread. If you skip the sweet potatoes, it may throw off the ratio of the ingredients. However, you can be quite flexible with this recipe. For example, you can replace sweet potatoes with bananas, or cooked winter squash, or pumpkins. 

Can I Freeze Sorghum Bread?

Yes. You can store unfinished bread in the freezer. Thaw the bread before you need to eat it. Freezing extends the shelf life significantly and makes a quick snack or meal with made-ahead bread.
