4 Go-to Gluten Free Bread Recipes

By: Bob's Red Mill | April 29 2017
Springtime is here, which means family get-togethers, barbecues, and Easter dinners! With all the preparation that happens before parties, it’s hard to take into account the different food preferences or allergies guests might have. To make things easier this Easter, we’ve found four gluten free bread recipes that will give traditional bread a run for its money and have your gluten free guests lining up for seconds at the dinner table.

Homemade Wonderful Rolls and Buns

Homemade dinner rolls are one of the most sought after dinner sides at any party, and for some families, Easter dinner just wouldn’t be complete without them. The problem with most store bought and homemade dinner rolls is that they often contain gluten, making it hard to accommodate gluten free guests. Because we couldn’t stand the thought of anyone missing out on some delicious dinner rolls, Bob's Red Mill whipped up a recipe that the is completely gluten free and perfect for those who have a gluten allergy or celiac disease. With only six ingredients, including Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Homemade Wonderful Bread Mix, this bread can be made in under an hour and is perfect for family barbecues. Not only can these buns be used as a delicious dinner side, but they can also be used to replace hamburger buns. Now everyone can enjoy a hamburger without having to go bun-free or switch to a lettuce wrap!

Gluten Free French Bread

While becoming gluten free can have many advantages, it can also mean saying goodbye to some of your favorite foods, including French bread. French bread can be used in so many different ways, making it hard to eliminate from your diet completely. This spring, why not make a French bread dish that is free of gluten and grains with a gluten free French bread recipe. This recipe is also dairy free, nut free, and soy free, making it safe for almost anyone to eat! The Gluten Free All Purpose Baking Flour from Bob’s Red Mill used in this recipe assures that the bread remains light and fluffy when baked. For a hint of extra flavor and to customize this bread to your taste buds, feel free to add your favorite seasonings to the bread mix and make it your own!

Gluten Free Sandwich Bread for Conventional Oven

Bread, we can hardly get through a meal without it. And sandwich bread has to be the most common of them all. Sandwiches are favored by both children and adults alike, and are easily one of the most versatile meals out there. The great thing about sandwiches is that you don’t have to add anything you don’t want to them, they're completely customizable. When it comes to gluten free sandwich bread, it can be challenging to find an alternative that tastes the same as traditional bread. This lack of flavor causes many to turn away from sandwich bread altogether, making many meals off limits to those living a gluten free lifestyle. With celiac disease and gluten allergies becoming more talked about, the gluten free items available in grocery stores are increasing drastically. The problem with many gluten free breads on the market is that if they taste good, they usually require a specific amount of care in order to stay fresh. Special requirements like refrigeration and freezing are not uncommon when it comes to gluten free bread. We promise your favorite grilled cheese and club sandwiches will taste fantastic with this bread. Plus, you’ll be able to eat and enjoy this bread knowing it’s completely gluten free and tastes great!

Gluten Free Flatbread

Flatbread can be dipped, layered, heated, topped, and even folded into your favorite sandwich. This gluten free flatbread combines the feel, look, and flexibility of pita bread with the texture of traditional bread to create a flatbread that is delicious and unique! It uses coconut flour and arrowroot starch to create a recipe that is completely grain free! Have any other go-to gluten free bread recipes? Share your best kept secrets in the comments below!

    Why are there pics of obviously gluten based bread in this recipe? When you follow the link the pic for French bread is nothing like a baguette. Just seems kinda cruel.

      There is a gluten free sourdough recipe on line. Have made it many times comes out incredible. It takes a couple weeks to get the starter going but it worth it.

    I tried to use the 1 to 1 gluten free flour to make bread-because I saw that it had the xanthar gum in it, but it was a major fail! So I guess if I really want to make gluten freebread I must use the specific bread mix?? bummer.

      I read in a review for a " no knead bread" using BRM products, the reviewer substituted 3 cups 1 to 1 + 1/2 cup All purpose gluten free for the 3 1/3 cups All Purpose Gluten Free flour. The reviewer was using2 1/4 tsp instant yeast.
      Always read all the reviews as the people that use this product will tell the tips that worked for them to help others.

    GF friends, here is a REALLY delicious gf bread recipe using Bobs 1-1 gf flour:

    2 1/2 C 1-1 flour
    1 C warm milk
    1/4 C sugar
    2 1/2 tsp yeast
    1 tsp salt
    1/4 C butter, melted
    2 lg eggs

    Combine sugar, milk yeast & let sit 10 mins. Blend flour & salt in a bowl, then add yeast mixture. Blend on low 30 secs. Add butter & eggs, blend again 30 secs, then beat on high 3 minutes. Heat oven to 200, shut off , let cool to about 100. Cover bread bowl and put it in oven for 1 hour. Grease a loaf pan, stir dough after 1 hr, & put it in loaf pan. (Dough is kinda wet and “paste-like”, don't panic, just spread it in the pan, it turns out fabulous) Cover w/saran type wrap for 20 mins. (Til dough rises to the top) bake at 350 degrees 40-50 minutes. My oven it takes 45 mins. So very good, I had to share. wow. :)

      Thanks, going to try this! I just tried my grandmother's recipe swapping only the wheat flour for 1:1, and it was a total disaster. Haha

      Best bread I ever made. Even better than bread with gluten. And super easy to make and I can’t wait to make it again. I ate half the loaf before I had a chance to use it for a sandwich .

    What can I add to the homemade wonderful bread mix to increase the fiber in the bread. Can I actually mix something into it like flax seed or does it just need to be a topping?
    Reply
    1. Whitney Barnes
      Hi Kelsey - You could add flaxseed meal to the dry mix. I'd start with 1/4 of a cup and increase from there as you like. Oats, chia seeds or protein powder could also be added o the mix to up the fiber content, but may affect the bread texture. Those three ingredients absorb moisture, so if you experiment with adding those, I'd also increase the liquid.

    I bought a ton of gluten free 1:1 flour blend hoping to use it for baking bread - and just found out it's not recommended for yeast breads. :( Is there a way I can adjust recipes so that I can use the 1:1 flour??

      Hi there--our 1-to-1 flour isn't suitable for yeast breads due to the ingredients. You can use it for quick breads, so you may want to try something like Irish Soda Bread: https://www.bobsredmill.com/recipes/how-to-make/easy-gluten-free-irish-soda-bread

    I am allergic to rice so this flour is a blessing to me. Do you have a drop-biscuit recipe I can make with it?

    This was an easy recipe to make, and the bread was excellent. What kind of changes would I have to make to use this recipe for dinner rolls?

    I followed D Lynn's recipe exactly and all went beautifully till the baking when the center sank down and the edges flowed over the pan edges and started to burn at the 36 minute mark. Any ideas?? it did seem a wet dough, but rose well both times so I don't know.
