Making the dough

  • Prepare the psyllium gel by mixing the psyllium husk and lukewarm water in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together tapioca starch, millet flour, sorghum flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
  • Create a well in the dry ingredients and add the psyllium gel, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
  • Knead the dough until smooth and all ingredients are incorporated.

Shaping & Proofing the loaf

  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, roll it out into a rectangle, and shape it into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
  • Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover with plastic wrap, and proof in a warm spot for about 1 hour.

Baking the loaf

  • Preheat the oven to 425ºF (220ºC) and prepare a cast iron skillet on the bottom.
  • Once proofed, brush the loaf with whisked egg white and score with 5-7 diagonal slashes.
  • Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 400ºF (200ºC) and continue for another 25-30 minutes.
  • Cool the bread on a wire rack until at least lukewarm before slicing.

Notes
