I've been searching for a bread that I could make that is gluten, dairy, and egg free to satisfy as many of my alternative eaters as possible, while being full of nutrients, delicious, and hearty to eat. But most of all, I wanted it to be bread-y. You know, like bread is supposed to be. I wanted to toast it, slice it, spread stuff on it, and generally, enjoy it like bread.
