Description

Gluten Free & Dairy Free Options

Cheese, pesto, tahini, and bread.  Can you name four things you love more?? Put them together and you’ve got a loaf of your dreams.  This bread is moist and decadent and flavorful and actually pretty darn HEALTHY too!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole wheat flout
  • 3/4 cup pesto tahini*
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 – 1 tsp salt
  • Extra cheese for topping


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Combine your tahini, eggs, water, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and cheese together in a bowl and mix.
  3. In a separate bowl combine your flour, salt, and baking soda.
  4. Add your dry ingredients to your wet and mix until combined.  Pour into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper (or greased) and top with more cheese if desired.  Bake for 20-25 minutes until edges start to turn golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

*if you don’t want to get the pesto tahini, you can use 1/2 cup tahini and 1/4 cup pesto (or all plain tahini if you want to omit pesto!). I have a great vegan pesto recipe on the blog.

Use vegan cheese for a dairy free option.

Use gluten free all purpose flour for a gluten free option.
