GF dough consistancy

1st time in trying a recipe from  GF Artisanal in 5 mins.

Oatmeal Maple.

Should the dough consistency be like regular bread or somewhat slurry-ish?

 The following link is to the original author's site that shares the master GF recipe.  This is where I got the quote that the dough should be "like soft biscuit dough" for the master recipe:

I could not find the ABin5 recipe for GF Oatmeal Maple bread anywhere on the internet and I do not have the book. I would assume that the added ingredients may change the dough consistency but I don't know how. My recommendation is to try it again in a small batch and use all the recommended ingredients,perhaps changing only 1 thing. Humidity,weather,ambiet moisture in the ingredients, harvest individuality characteristics , measuring cups size,etc can all influence the outcome. A lot of GF I have made is a batter consistency but there are many recipes that call for the "soft biscuit dough" consistency. You can also go to the author's website and message them.

Here is a website that has an Oatmeal Maple bread and other interesting links.

thanks for the links.  The gingerlemon has lots of good info.

Made a dough last night.  So far seems like what the book says.  Dunno why I didn't see any info on consistency of the dough in the book.

Perhaps I skimmed something.

I'll try a bake tmrw, after it's had 24 in the fridge.
