Gluten Free Garlic Bread with a Dairy Free Garlic Butter

A delicious tear and share garlic bread which is both Gluten Free & Dairy Free. Be prepared to let it prove so read the recipe through to see how long you will need... it's so worth it!

Ingredients

  • 250 g gluten free bread flour Dove's do a Gluten Free BREAD Flour.... Or use your own Gluten Free Flour Blend - there are plenty of GF flour blend recipes online
  • 1 tsp gluten free dried yeast
  • 30 g gluten free breadcrumbs optional
  • 3 cloves of crushed garlic or a tbsp garlic paste
  • 160 g dairy free spread at room temperature
  • 1/3 lemon zest
  • small handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley finely chopped
  • 1/3 tsp cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Place your gluten free bread flour/flour blend into a bowl alongside your yeast and a pinch of salt.
  • Make a well in the middle of your dry ingredients.
  • Gradually pour in 170ml of tepid (luke warm) water & stir continuously until you form something a little like a rough dough. (don't worry if it feels a little sticky)
  • Transfer your dough onto a lightly gluten free floured surface & knead for 10 minutes (important!)
  • Once you have kneaded, place your dough in a bowl covered with clingfilm or a damp tea towel. Leave in a warm place for about 1 hour.
  • Whilst you wait... make the garlic butter. Mix your garlic into your room temp spread.
  • Add your lemon zest, finely chopped parsley & cayenne pepper.
  • Spread around a 1/3 of your garlic butter over an oven proof dish, all over the base & sides. (the dish doesn't need to be very big)
  • (Optional) Scatter the breadcrumbs across the dish evenly.. this will give a crispier tasty base to your garlic bread, but is definitely not necessary if you don't have any bread crumbs lying around.
  • When the hour is up, take your dough and divide it up, rolling it into even balls.
  • Place then in your oven proof dish & spread over another 1/3 of your garlic butter mixture.
  • Cover once more & leave to prove in a warm place for a further 1 hour - 1 hour 30.
  • Preheat your oven to 190degrees celsius.
  • Bake on the bottom shelf of your oven for about 30 minutes, they might need a little longer to make them go more golden.
  • If you are going to serve immediately, you can then spread your final third of garlic butter on top to them, it will melt and ooze everywhere!
  • Enjoy!

Notes

This delicious gluten free & dairy free garlic tear & share bread is perfect to accompany so many dishes. I love it alongside a Gluten Free Spaghetti Bolognese, but it really can go with anything, or be enjoyed on its own!
