This Paleo herb bread is a perfect side for any meal – so good to mop up those extra juicy sauces!
By now you may have guessed that I really, really like recreating bread-type things for my special snowflake stomach. Check out these recipes for Paleo bread, English muffins, and pizza crusts, all grain-free, gluten-free and dairy-free, with minimal to no sugar. But you know when you have an awesome soup, or casserole, and you’ve got all that yummy sauce at the bottom of your plate? And all you want to do is get a chunky piece of bread to mop it up? Well, this Paleo herb bread recipe has you covered.
I found this recipe through one of the awesome bloggers I follow on Instagram – Charlotte at Press-start Nutrition has some amazing recipes and ideas across the board, so you should go and check her out, after making this recipe though! This recipe is adapted from her magic bread which I have to admit I made first and loved. But then I thought to myself, with some gentle promptings from Grant, that I really should look at having a more garlic/herb bread recipe on this website as well. So I made this herb bread and I loved it.
Originally it was going to be called a garlic and herb bread, but you don’t really get the garlic flavor coming through to my satisfaction. It could be because I’m not that great at crushing garlic cloves into finer portions (because I always get chunky garlic through this bread) so you can either leave it out, or maybe actually buy minced garlic. Or be so much better at crushing garlic than I am!
Whatever you call this bread, enjoy it as a side dish, with a dollop of ghee on top. I even tried it with some nut butter … but I probably wouldn’t recommend that option! Just try it and let me know what you think in the comments below!
