Gluten-Free Sorghum Flour Bread is a hearty, earthy loaf made primarily from sorghum flour, a whole grain native to Africa and widely used in gluten-free baking. It typically includes binders like xanthan gum or psyllium husk, along with eggs or flax eggs, and liquids such as water or plant-based milk to achieve a satisfying texture.
This bread is a good source of complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber, with a moderate amount of protein and minimal fat. A single slice (about 60g) generally provides around 150-180 calories, along with essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and phosphorus.
Sorghum is one of the world's oldest cultivated grains, prized for its drought resistance and natural gluten-free properties, making it a nutritional cornerstone in many arid regions. Its flour adds a distinctive, slightly sweet and nutty flavor to bread, offering a wholesome alternative for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.
