Gluten-Free Noodle Recipe

Homemade gluten-free noodles are soft, chewy, and perfect for soups, stir-fries, or pasta dishes. This simple recipe uses a gluten-free flour blend and xanthan gum to hold everything together, making noodles that taste just like the real thing.

Ingredients

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum, or add separately)
• 1 tsp xanthan gum (if not in flour mix)
• ½ tsp salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2–3 tbsp water (as needed)

Directions

1. Step 1 – Mix the dough:
2. In a large bowl, combine gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, and salt.
3. Make a well in the center and add eggs, olive oil, and water.
4. Mix with a fork until a shaggy dough forms, then knead by hand for 2–3 minutes until smooth. Add a sprinkle of flour if too sticky.
5. Step 2 – Rest the dough:
6. 4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 20–30 minutes at room temperature.
7. Step 3 – Roll and cut:
8. 5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough thinly.
9. 6. Use a sharp knife or pasta cutter to slice into thin strips (like spaghetti, fettuccine, or egg noodles).
10. Step 4 – Cook the noodles:
11. 7. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
12. 8. Drop the noodles in and cook for 3–5 minutes until tender but firm.
13. 9. Drain and toss immediately with sauce, butter, or olive oil to prevent sticking.
