Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan lightly.

6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just incorporated, avoiding overmixing to keep the bread tender.
7. Fold in the drained raisins until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
8. Tip: Dust the raisins with a bit of the flour mixture before adding to prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking.

5. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with a bit of olive oil, then transfer the dough into the pan, smoothing the top with wet hands to prevent sticking.
6. Cover the pan loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 1 hour, or until it nearly doubles in size.
7. Preheat your oven to 375°F while the dough rises, ensuring even baking from the start.

8. Remove the pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing; this resting period allows the structure to set, preventing it from crumbling.
Soft and moist with a delicate crumb, this bread offers a subtle sweetness from the honey and a rich, nutty aroma that pairs beautifully with avocado or a smear of almond butter. Serve it toasted with a drizzle of olive oil for a savory twist, or enjoy it as a wholesome snack straight from the loaf.

Serving: 8 | Pre Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
– 1 cup of almond flour, for that nutty base
– ½ cup of tapioca flour, to add a bit of stretch
– ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, because cheese makes everything better
– 1 large egg, to bind it all together
– 2 tablespoons of olive oil, for a smooth dough
– 1 teaspoon of baking powder, to give it a lift
– ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, for a savory kick
– A pinch of salt, to balance the flavors
– A splash of warm water, if the dough feels too dry
– ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, for that gooey topping
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of almond flour, ½ cup of tapioca flour, ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
3. Add 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms; if it’s crumbly, mix in a splash of warm water, one teaspoon at a time, until it holds together.
4. Tip: For easier handling, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 5 minutes before shaping.
5. On a lightly floured surface (using extra tapioca flour), roll the dough into a rectangle about ½-inch thick.
6. Cut the rectangle into 8 even strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
7. Arrange the strips on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
8. Sprinkle ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of each breadstick.
9. Tip: Press the cheese gently into the dough to prevent it from sliding off during baking.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the breadsticks are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
11. Tip: Rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking for even browning.
12. Remove from the oven and let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before serving.
13. Here, the breadsticks boast a crisp exterior with a soft, chewy interior, enhanced by the melty cheese and savory garlic notes. Serve them warm alongside marinara sauce for dipping, or crumble them over a salad for a crunchy twist—their versatility makes them a standout addition to any meal.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, baking powder, and sea salt until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a fork until frothy, then stir in the olive oil, milk, and honey until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just incorporated—avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
5. Fold in the chopped olives and minced rosemary evenly throughout the batter.
6. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with the spatula.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing—this prevents it from becoming gummy.
9. For best results, slice with a serrated knife to maintain the bread’s delicate texture.
