Ingredients

• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Gluten-free dark rye flour
• 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1.5 teaspoons Sea salt
• 3 tablespoons Dark molasses
• 1.5 teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1.5 cups Warm water (about 110°F/43°C)
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil or melted butter
• 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds (optional, for flavor)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free dark rye flour, psyllium husk powder, xanthan gum, instant yeast, sea salt, and caraway seeds if using.

Step 2

In a separate smaller bowl, combine the warm water, dark molasses, apple cider vinegar, and vegetable oil or melted butter. Stir until well mixed.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to mix the dough until it forms a thick, sticky batter.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 10 minutes. This will allow the psyllium husk to absorb some moisture and thicken the dough.

Step 5

Grease an 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan. Transfer the dough into the pan and use damp hands or a spatula to smooth the top.

Step 6

Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 45-60 minutes, or until the dough has risen slightly and appears puffy.

Step 7

During the last 15 minutes of rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 8

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is firm and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
