Gluten-Free Herb Bread

There are two things we love most here: bread and quick and easy recipes. This tackles both of our loves. This quick gluten-free herb bread recipe is bursting with flavor and is as easy as it is delicious.

When we originally made this recipe, we used olive oil. After our trip to Banff, we discovered this little local shop, Evoolution, that sold premium olive oils and balsamic vinegar. Since our one trip to the store, we have been hooked and have now been ordering their oils online. I ended up getting Joe their holiday advent calendar, which has been allowing us to try new oils and vinegar in different recipes all month long. One of the oils we pulled out was their butternut squash seed gourmet oil.

Having just one ingredient: roasted pressed squash seeds, it was the perfect oil to try in our herb bread. The gently processed oil imparts a nutty flavor to whatever you use it for.
