Ready in just over an hour with minimal hands-on time, this homemade bread is proof that gluten-free baking can be bold, flavorful, and satisfying!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free bread flour blend, psyllium husk powder, instant yeast, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, mix warm water, olive oil, and honey until the honey is fully dissolved.
Pour the liquid mixture into the dry ingredients. Use a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to mix until a sticky dough forms.
Gently fold the crumbled blue cheese and chopped chives into the dough. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout.
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise in a warm location for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a loaf pan.
Once risen, shape the dough into a rustic loaf by using wet hands to form it gently into a round or oval shape. Place it on the prepared baking sheet or in the loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack before slicing it.
Serve your gluten-free rustic blue cheese bread slightly warm or at room temperature. Delicious on its own or paired with butter.
