Are you looking for a recipe for high protein gluten free bread? You can achieve high protein bread easily using almond flour as in my previous recipes for Almond Flour Gluten Free Bread. However, if you’d like to avoid nuts or just don’t have any on hand, a healthy alternative is the use of pea protein. If you cannot tolerate pea protein, use brown rice protein instead. This recipe results in a very flavorful bread that isn’t just all starch. Enjoy!
Do I Need a Bread Machine?
While I used a bread machine with a gluten free setting for this recipe, you can easily make it in the oven. Just follow the instructions in the “Tips” section at the bottom of the recipe. You can also play around making it in a bread machine without a gluten free setting. Just choose the longest baking time. Wheat settings usually work harder at rising a heavy loaf and may be perfect for this gluten free bread dough.
How Much Protein Does Brown Rice Protein Powder Add?
The half cup of brown rice protein in this recipe adds an additional 30 grams of protein to the entire bread recipe. That’s not even counting the protein the eggs and other ingredients like brown rice flour. Brands of brown rice protein vary. The above amount is based on the brand that I used, NOW Foods Sprouted Brown Rice Protein Powder.

How do I substitute pea protein for the the rice protein?
Carol,
Pea protein and brown rice protein powders are interchangeable, in equal parts.
Carla
My daughter is allergic to pea protein and whey protein so will this recipe be good?
Susan,
How about rice protein?
Carla
While I loved the ease of making, the finished product, the feel and taste of the bread, there was a definite after taste that we didn’t care for. Could it possibly be too much baking powder? All my flours were new and I just got the protein powder. Any suggestions will be appreciated as the texture of this bread is wonderful. Thanks.
RoseAnn,
You probably just don’t like the flavor of brown rice protein powder. What brand did you use? I use Now Foods.E
