In a small bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum (if needed), and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, warm milk, and eggs until evenly combined.
Pour the wet ingredients and the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the mixture on medium speed for 5 minutes. The dough will be thick and sticky.
Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil or line it with parchment paper.
Transfer the dough to the loaf pan and use a silicone spatula to spread and smooth the top evenly.
Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 30-45 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) during the last 10 minutes of rising time.
Bake the bread for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for longer storage.
