Brazil Nut Free Gluten Free Brioche

Brioche is one of those breads that feels almost impossibly luxurious — rich, buttery, and golden with a tender crumb that practically melts on your tongue. Getting that same experience without wheat flour is a challenge most recipes fumble, but this one nails it by combining white rice flour, tapioca starch, and potato starch into a blend that genuinely mimics the soft, pillowy structure of the classic French loaf. Xanthan gum holds everything together while the butter gets worked in gradually, just like a traditional brioche method, building that signature glossy, smooth dough. The result crowns beautifully above the pan and bakes to a deep, burnished gold that looks every bit as impressive as it tastes. Because every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify, you don't have to stress about hidden tree nuts or cross-contamination from complex store-bought flour blends. Let it cool long enough for the crumb to fully set, then slice it thick — it's stunning on its own, and even better toasted with a generous smear of butter or jam.
