Ingredients

• 1 cup Teff flour
• 1 cup Sorghum flour
• 1 cup Tapioca starch
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
• 1.5 cups Warm water
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 packet Dry yeast

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and honey. Stir gently and allow the mixture to rest for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix together the teff flour, sorghum flour, tapioca starch, ground flaxseed, chia seeds, and salt.

Step 3

Once the yeast mixture is foamy, add the apple cider vinegar and olive oil to the bowl.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a mixer or whisk until a smooth batter forms. The batter should be thick but not rigid; if too stiff, add water a tablespoon at a time.

Step 5

Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease well with olive oil.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Cover the loaf with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes or until it has risen to about double its original size.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 9

Bake the bread for 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
