Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Gluten-free wholemeal flour
- 10 grams Baking powder
- 5 grams Xanthan gum
- 5 grams Salt
- 50 milliliters Olive oil
- 300 milliliters Warm water
- 10 milliliters Apple cider vinegar
- 20 grams Chia seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and grease a medium-sized loaf tin or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free wholemeal flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Add the olive oil, warm water, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until you have a smooth batter.
Gently fold in the chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the mixture.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin. Smooth the top with a spatula to create an even surface.
Place the tin in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the tin for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the bread once it has cooled sufficiently. It's great enjoyed as is or with your favorite toppings.
