Now I have little excuse than to try making gf bread again.
I'm not sure if a loaf on its own counts... think the bread has to be an ingredient in a recipe - which, of course, gluten free bread could be
I was thinking of making a loaf too (but not your bog standard loaf)
Anything using bread dough (leaven or unleavened) but a bog standard tortilla or pizza won't inspire me. (It doesn't mean you can't enter it though.)
Making a loaf of bread is fine. Just a normal loaf of bread /sourdough won't be interesting interesting enough to qualify. Something extra needs to be done to lift it out of the zone of normal and make it interesting. How is up to you.
One could argue that both cheese and cake have a standard recipe as well. Carrot cake has additions to that basic cake recipe. What is referred to as cottage cheese of the home-made variety (heat milk, add vinegar or lemon, separate curds) is then added to our modified to create other types of cheeses, Wensleydale Springs to mind as an example, or Lancashire or Cheshire. All very similar fresh cheeses. Bread being both the ingredient or a recipe isn't any different in that sense, at least that was what I thought.Maybe its just never come up in the past as this is the first time the ingredient itself already has 'a recipe'.

Plus I thought keeping it as using bread within a recipe limited it quite a bit, hence taking it to the dough concept expanded options a tad.
Haven't we already had other examples though? I thought we had. Certainly I have entered recipes to make cheese where cheese had been chosen (or thought I had). And I was certain we'd had a recipe to make Marmite.My point was that it is not any different - it just opens up the way the ingredient challenge works if ingredients are chosen which in themselves have recipes.
Didn't' have time Friday and now away from home but still have plans. Next week sometime.Intrigued...

Very nice. Are you posting it as an entry?
Probably not - I've most likely posted the recipe before (albeit under a different name).
I've got some really good (I think) ideas for this challenge but am decorating this week and in Scotland (hopefully sampling delicious seafood) next week.
