This type of bread, or more like savoury cake, is something I like making a lot, and there are many recipes on the blog. This one is different from the others because this is a gluten-free version!<\/p>\n
The ingredients for the base of these loaves of bread\/cakes mostly stay the same; only the measurements might change: olive oil, milk, yoghurt, eggs, baking powder, salt and, of course, flour. The rest change with each recipe: nuts, cheese, olives, tomatoes, dried fruits, vegetables etc.<\/p>\n
Apart from these, there are two more crucial ingredients in this recipe: psyllium husk and xanthan gum. These ingredients act as binders, and they also give gluten-free baked goods elasticity and flexibility.<\/p>\n
Generally, I try to make the flour blend myself in my gluten-free bakery recipes. However, in this recipe, I used a store-bought gluten-free flour blend. Even though there was already some psyllium husk in the blend, I still added some myself as a previous trial without this addition resulted in a crumbly cake.<\/p>\n
Whether you are following a gluten-free diet or not, you will love this recipe anyway!\u2014<\/p>\n

oil to grease the pan<\/p>\n
*I used Pirkka vaalea gluteeniton jauhoseos.<\/p>\n
Note: I\u2019m using the conversion chart in this link for the measurements.<\/p>\n
Preheat the oven to 200C. Grease the loaf pan and put a baking paper inside to cover the base and two sides.<\/p>\n
2. In a medium bowl, put the first three ingredients and mix with a spoon.<\/p>\n
3. Add dried cranberry and pecans and mix them all together.<\/p>\n
4. In a larger bowl, put the eggs and whisk a little.<\/p>\n
5. Add olive oil, milk and yoghurt and whisk until smooth.<\/p>\n
6. Add cottage cheese and whisk again gently.<\/p>\n
7. Add the dry ingredients mixture to the egg mixture and fold until everything is wet.<\/p>\n
8. Add psyllium husk and xanthan gum and fold well.<\/p>\n
9. Transfer the batter to the loaf pan, and smoothen the surface using a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. When it\u2019s out of the oven, leave it in the pan for 20-25 minutes and then gently take the cake out. Put on a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy with a fresh salad as a light lunch or with tea\/coffee as an afternoon snack!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
