Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca starch, instant yeast, and xanthan gum. Stir well to mix these dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm water, pineapple juice, coconut oil, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and salt until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
Add the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, blend on low until ingredients are just combined.
Add the eggs to the mixture and increase the mixer speed to medium. Beat the mixture for about 3 minutes until the dough is smooth and sticky.
Pour the dough into the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to level the top. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, or until the dough has risen slightly above the pan's edge.
Once risen, place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
