Comment on Gluten-Free Sourdough Without Psyllium by Chantal.
Yes, oat flour is very absorbent. It’s ok if you needed to add more water to make it into a consistency that you can mix. Not sure how it will turn out though but great job for trying! Let me know how it turns out.

Hi Sherry! Sorry for the late reply. Did you end up trying the recipe with your new starter? Ten days is fine if it was showing signs of growth and was bubbly. If you need more help with a recipe for your son let me know.

Hi Abigail! Replacing the tiger nut flour with oat flour should work fine. You can probably increase the oat flour to 1-1/4 cups to replace the tiger nut flour, as tiger nut is a bit heavier than oat flour. As for the water, add enough to create a nice thick soft batter. And if you decide to add one egg, that is fine too, and it will replace a bit of the water. Note that I haven’t tried eggs in this recipe.

Hi Marilyn! You can pretty much make any of my GF sourdough bread recipes with a sorghum sourdough starter. https://www.freshisreal.com/category/bread/sourdough-bread-2/
Even if the recipe calls for a brown rice starter, using a sorghum version will be just fine. Just note that you might have to tweak the ingredients a little if you need to swap out rice flour or add another flour to replace the sorghum flour in the recipe. Let me know if you need more guidance.

What did you decide to try? Yes, in a pinch place the dough overnight in the fridge, no problem. When you take it out, you can leave it at room temperature for an hour or two or bake it if your oven is already hot.

Hi! Was that the first time you used your GF sourdough starter? If you got about an inch of rise, that’s pretty good. Did you sub or change any of the ingredients? GF sourdough won’t rise as much as regular bread when baking. Did you use a Dutch oven to help trap the initial steam or did you bake the dough in a bread pan?

Hi Debbie! You can for sure sub the tapioca with arrowroot starch or even more potato starch if that is better for you. Replace it by weight.

Hi Rose! The reason for the overnight rest is to help the ingredients breakdown to make the bread easier to digest. You can make the recipe without this step. You can bake the dough in a regular bread pan, if that’s all that you have. I miss this bread, I’ll try and bake one tomorrow without the overnight rest and I’ll bake it in a bread pan and report back. It should be fine if you try it before me. If you have a bread pan with lid, you could cover the dough for half the baking time.

Hi Ann! I think using sorghum flour instead of oat flour for 1/2 cup should be fine. Alternatively, almond flour would work too if you’re not allergic to nuts.
