My husband goes goo-goo over garlic bread, but the nutritional profile of the stuff is enough to make me cringe. Refined carbs, trans-fat filled margarine and “dough conditioners” (whatever those are) make up the junk you get from the takeout pizza place up the road. If you’re lucky, it’ll have real cheese.

My version is completely grain free, gluten free and low in carbs. The smell that wafts throughout the house while it’s baking is simply mouth-watering. Butter, cheese and garlic? Sign me up, right?

For taste authenticity, I added a bit of yeast to this recipe. No, yeast won’t work on grain free flours (boo!), but it definitely lends that familiar flavor of “real” bread. I baked my dough in a 9×9 square cake pan (greased very well) and then turned it out onto a cookie sheet. Next time, though, I’d probably just free form it. The dough isn’t incredibly thick, but it’s thick enough that you’ll get a rustic bready base. If you want the square, just do what I did and bake it in the pan. If you do bake it in the pan, it’ll probably be thicker than it would be free-form. Honestly, that sounds good to me. I can’t wait to make it that way next time!

Is this super chewy like wheat-based garlic bread? No. It’s definitely more biscuit-y, but I promise– it’s also deeeeelicious!
