Poppyseed Bloomer (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Hello everyone, my latest recipe is for a Gluten and Dairy Free Poppyseed Bloomer. I thought it was time to share another bread recipe.  This time I’ve gone for a crusty bloomer topped with poppyseeds.

Gluten free bread can be tricky to make. I personally find that using a sour dough starter works best for me. I 've also had more luck making it by hand rather than using a bread maker. I think with bread making it is all about finding a technique and recipe that works well for you.
