Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a clean surface lightly dusted with gluten-free flour, roll out the gluten-free bread dough into a rectangle roughly 12x16 inches.
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, pepper, fresh basil, and parsley. Mix until well combined.
Fold the cooled spinach and garlic mixture into the cheese mixture, stirring until evenly distributed.
Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Carefully roll up the dough starting from one of the longer sides, like a jelly roll, and pinch the seam to seal.
Place the rolled dough seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the top with a little olive oil or additional beaten egg for a golden crust, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing to serve.
