Ingredients

• 2.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Psyllium husk powder
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1.25 cups Warm water (110°F/43°C)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.75 cup Kalamata olives (pitted and chopped)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the active dry yeast, sugar, and warm water. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add it to the dry ingredients along with the olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Mix until a sticky dough forms.

Step 4

Fold in the chopped Kalamata olives and fresh rosemary until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rest for about 1 hour in a warm place, allowing it to rise slightly.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 7

Turn the dough out onto the lined baking sheet. Using damp hands, shape the dough into a round loaf or oval shape, about 2 inches high.

Step 8

If desired, use a sharp knife to score the top of the bread with shallow slashes to create a decorative pattern.

Step 9

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 10

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
