Ready in just over an hour, it’s the ultimate choice for healthy, homemade gluten-free baking!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free whole wheat flour blend, psyllium husk powder, ground flaxseed, all seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, chia, sesame), salt, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, instant yeast, olive oil, and maple syrup. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to activate. You should see slight foaming on the surface.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until a sticky dough forms. The consistency should be thick but pliable.
Lightly grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
Transfer the dough into the pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Spritz the surface lightly with water to prevent drying out during the rise.
Cover the pan loosely with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Once the dough has risen, sprinkle the top with additional seeds for garnish, if desired.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
