We love our cauliflower bread and pizza crust as much as the next lower-carb eater, but every once in a while you might be tempted to nibble on a piece of bread. Even Primal Kitchen founder Mark Sisson has been spotted biting into a fresh-baked slice of high-quality bread at a restaurant, and he doesn’t stress about it.
For those times when you want something to mop up the saucy drippings of a cozy stew or skillet of marinara-sauced meatballs, want an oozing, scrumptious handheld for watching the game but can’t muster the energy to make pizza, or plan to host family supper with picky kids in attendance, our gluten-free garlic bread recipes can be your saving grace. Even with gluten-free bread, our garlic bread has a crackly crust, oven-toasted interior made luscious with oil and butter, lightly sweet but assertive garlic essence, and sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley. For an easy pizza shortcut, add shredded mozzarella to the garlic bread, pop under the broiler until the cheese begins to puddle and blister, and serve with warmed tomato basil marinara sauce.
