Ingredients

Yeast

  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour
  • 1 cup millet flour
  • 1/2 cup sorghum flour
  • 2 Tbsp + 1 tsp psyllium husk powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 eggs (room temperature)
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

Activate the Yeast

  • In a small bowl, combine the yeast, warm water (around 110°F / 43°C), and maple syrup. Stir gently, then let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until foamy and bubbly. This ensures the yeast is active.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients

  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together the dry ingredients.

Combine the Wet Ingredients

  • In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients.

Mix the Dough

  • Pour the activated yeast mixture and wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
  • Stir until well combined. The dough will be thick and sticky, more like a batter than traditional wheat bread dough.
  • Let the dough sit for 5–10 minutes. The psyllium husk will absorb moisture and thicken the dough.

Shape and Rise

  • Grease a 9x5-inch (23 × 13 cm) loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • Transfer the dough into the pan and smooth the top with a wet hand (don’t pack it down).
  • Cover loosely with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm spot for 60 minutes, or until slightly puffed. It won’t double like wheat bread, but should appear noticeably risen.

Bake

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Bake for 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool

  • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing — this prevents it from being gummy.
