Combine rice flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture, followed by melted butter, eggs, and milk.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-10 minutes.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf.

Place the shaped dough in a greased loaf pan, cover, and let rise again for about 30 minutes.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30-35 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack before slicing.
