Easy Rosmary Herb Bread (vegan, gluten free, citrus free, easy)

Im sorry I have been MIA, I have been cooking, but I started a new job, so things have been hectic. One of my new favorite recipes is this rosmary herb bread. It is strongly flavored, and stands well on its own or with a dip or with a veggie burger or veggie sandwich.
