🌿 Gluten-Free Garlic-Stuffed Bread Recipe

Soft gluten-free bread, loaded with a gooey garlic-butter filling—perfect as a side or snack.

🧄 Ingredients:

For the Dough:

  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)

  • 1 tbsp psyllium husk (for stretch)

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 2 tsp sugar

  • 2 1/4 tsp (1 packet) instant yeast

  • 3/4 cup warm milk (or water), ~110°F

  • 1 large egg, room temp

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

For the Garlic Filling:

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

  • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or grated parmesan (optional but delicious)

🧑‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Activate Yeast (if using active dry yeast):

In a small bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.

2. Prepare Dough:

In a large bowl, combine gluten-free flour, psyllium husk, salt, and baking powder.
Add the egg, olive oil, and activated yeast mixture (or just mix everything if using instant yeast).
Mix until a soft dough forms. It may be sticky—that’s okay. Let rest 20 minutes.

3. Make Garlic Filling:

In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt. Add cheese if using.

4. Stuff and Shape:

  • Lightly oil your hands.

  • Divide dough into 6–8 equal pieces.

  • Flatten each piece into a small disc.

  • Place 1–2 tsp of the garlic butter mixture in the center.

  • Pinch and seal the dough to enclose the filling. Gently roll into a ball.

  • Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

5. Second Rise:

Cover and let the shaped dough rest in a warm spot for 30–40 minutes.

6. Bake:

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brush tops with olive oil or beaten egg.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

💡 Tips:

  • Add shredded cheese into the filling for melty centers.

  • Brush hot baked rolls with more garlic butter for maximum flavor.

  • Best eaten warm, but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
