Many people have asked me for a simple beetroot bread recipe that is quick to prepare.

And this recipe for beetroot and oat bread simply involves mixing the dry ingredients, processing the wet ingredients and then mixing the two together.

The bread is soft, tasty and is gluten and dairy free, perfect for people with intolerances.

BEET BREAD WITH OATS

To make a simple gluten-free beetroot bread we always need mixing more than one gluten free flour.

Oats are the flour that is most present in the dough, but we also need rice flour and sweet cassava starch.

See below the main ones functions of these flours in the beetroot bread dough:

  • Oatmeal: promotes elasticity and softness to the dough.
  • Rice flour: allows for a more structured bread, with a firmer and more stable slice.
  • Sweet cassava starch: adds binding and helps with the softness of the dough.

It is important to maintain the balance of the recipe using all the recommended ingredients.

RAW BEET BREAD

To make the recipe even easier, you will use raw beetroot, just peel and chop it.

I do not recommend using cooked beets., as it is already hydrated and this extra moisture will ruin the recipe.

You can peel and chop a small beetroot and measure 1 cup or else weigh 100 grams on the scale.

DURABILITY BEET BREAD RECIPE WITH OATS

In bread recipes that have more fiber and still include fresh vegetables in the dough, the shelf life decreases.

Therefore, I recommend leaving it in the fridge from the first day and consuming it little by little within the expiration date. 1 week.

Out of the fridge it can spoil in about 2 days, if it is very hot, even faster.

When refrigerated, the simple beetroot bread becomes firmer, but you can simply heat it quickly in the toaster or in a frying pan.

And if you want to increase durability even further, I recommend slice and freeze.
