As I sit writing this I have a small dog chilling near my feet.

Once again I am dog sitting, this time a 6 month old puppy who wants to jump on the sofa and play a lot…not at all conducive to work but a good insight into what it might be like if we bite the bullet and get ourselves one.

I think at some point I might have mentioned that I would tell you about our trip to France? To be honest, there isn’t much to tell.  One day we attempted to eat lunch out and stupidly didn’t take any food with us.

Happiness is paddling!

Picture this…

A long walk in the sun to a beautiful but touristy town.

Another long walk around all the restaurants and cafes asking if they had anything gluten-free.

Hearing a lot of “non!”

Seeing a lot of chicken nuggets appearing on menus (rendering the frites unsuitable for Roo). Since when are chicken nuggets French???

A huge thunder and lightning storm with Roo hysterically crying because she is terrified of lightening which was directly over head.

Me leaving my soggy family under shelter while I searched all tourist shops for something edible to get us back to the campsite…and eventually finding an incredibly expensive bag of toffees with no warning about gluten (but which of course contained dairy – beggars can’t be choosers).

Two incredibly resilient children walking back to the campsite in the rain with absolutely no moaning and a very late lunch…

img_6902

Looking across the bay to the ‘very touristy town’ from our campsite.

That just about sums up our experience and after that we didn’t attempt to eat out again.  We did find a couple of restaurants that didn’t fry anything else with their frites so our food adventures stretched to a couple of portions of them and a bowl of moules!

So as per all holidays, I ended up cooking.

Anyway, tales of France over I thought I would share this recipe with you.

I created it a long time ago when I was experimenting with scone recipes.  

Rather than create round scones I put the batter in a small loaf tin and hey presto had myself a rather lovely and quick loaf of bread, free from gluten, dairy, eggs, soya and sugar.  Also, being made with my flour and ground almonds it has a high protein and fibre content.

The nutritional yeast adds a savoury ‘cheese’ type flavour to it, along with much-needed (if vegan) vitamin B12. A deficiency in B12 can cause all manner of symptoms including extreme tiredness and muscle weakness. You can find out more on the NHS Choices website here.

I hope you enjoy it.

    This is a lovely tasty and quick bread alternative, thank you Vicki. I like to make it alongside a ‘picky tea’ or with soup or a stew. My only problem with the recipe is the ‘leave to cool’ part! ๐Ÿ™‚ I can never resist the warm end of a fresh baked loaf!

      Hi Clare, I’m so glad you like the recipe. I’m with you when it comes to leaving bread to cool…no chance! I can’t even listen to my own instructions!

    Vegan and gluten free cheese bread! That is impressive! Im not vegan, but I do LOVE nutritional yeast and I am always looking for new and exciting bread recipes. This looks great!

    • Vicki Montague says

      14th October 2016 at 12:41 pm

      Ah thanks Charlie. It goes very nicely with a bowl of soup I’m finding! I hope you enjoy it.

    I love baking with almond! This bread looks really delicious! And it’s made with home made flour too:) Making anything from scratch is satisfying but using your own flour in a recipe must be ten times more satisfying!

    • Vicki Montague says

      28th September 2016 at 11:13 am

      Hi Monika thank you for your kind words. Yes, I am very happy to have my flour available for others to buy. A real achievement and I know just how nutritious it is!

    Oh good. Let me know what you think!

    Oh that must have been so hard! It’s bad enough travelling as a vegetarian – I hope you had a good time despite the food challenges. The bread sounds lovely – thanks for sharing X

      Thanks Mandy. We had a wonderful time and are used to food challenges!

    Oh no, so sorry to hear about your experiences in France! That sounds perfectly horrible. I’m amazed they aren’t a little more accommodating these days – surely there are people with food allergies in France too!?! Or maybe they all stay at home and cook for themselves…How were the shops? Were they any better?? Love the sound of your ‘cheese’ bread – it really looks good too! Xx

    • Vicki Montague says

      22nd September 2016 at 1:50 pm

      Hi Eb, yeah I guess people with allergies and intolerances keep quiet and stay in! The supermarkets were pretty well stocked with things so Roo got some treats that she hasn’t ever had in the UK!

      19th September 2016 at 10:46 am

      Hi Carole, yes Italy is firmly on the list of places to take Roo. I just need to make some money now ;)!

    Looks like a great loaf Vicki. Beautiful texture! I have never tried nutritional yeast (although have heard about it). Is it very ‘cheesy’?

    • Vicki Montague says

      16th September 2016 at 1:21 pm

      Hi Kate, no it’s not very cheesy…more savoury, but it does have a kind of cheese-like taste without being that dreadful vegan cheese!!

  9. Rebecca (Glutarama) says

    13th September 2016 at 3:06 pm

    Looks good, love to see a slice of bread with a chunk bitten out of it!

    I miss cheese so will defo give this a go. Wil have to buy some more of your flour soon too, its nearly all gone. ?

Vicki Montague, the Free From Fairy

Welcome!

Hi. I'm Vicki Montague, scientist and mum to 'Roo' (15) and 'Sunshine' (13). I'm a freelance recipe developer specialising in 'free from' food and spend many hours in my kitchen experimenting to create exciting healthy recipes that are all gluten-free & mainly dairy-free. In July 2016 I launched the world's first wholegrain, gluten-free and rice-free flour blends. In May 2018 I launched my first online programme to help people adapt to a gluten free life. I can be found at food festivals giving cookery demos and I love nothing more than teaching people how to cook and lead a positive wholesome life. Find out more about my story...
