Without a doubt, one of the toprequests thatI receive is for gluten-free bread recipes. Not just any bread recipes, mind you, but the best gluten-free bread recipes!
So today I’m sharing a newly updated version of this collection of the very best gluten-free bread recipes. Recipes for amazing loaves of bread! Here’s a photo of one of the new recipes. Can you believe how pliable and sturdy that slice of bread looks? You’ll find more info on this bread recipe at the bottom of this post.
There are recipes here that I call “mainstream”—gluten free only—but there are also “more-free” recipes, such as dairy free, yeast free, vegan, paleo, and/or primal. I always love giving you enough options so that you’re sure to find at least one recipe that will work for you, and possibly one that will even become a new favorite!
Many thanks to all my blogger friends who have graciously allowed me to share their photos! When you visit their blogs to get their recipes, be sure to read all their notes and follow their directions.
I also recommend that you do a quick scan of their readers’ comments as well. That’s especially true if you have questions about the recipe or wish to make substitutions. Because not only will you see their readers’ reviews of the recipe firsthand, but often you’ll also find answers on substitutions and preferences that you might find very helpful.
And now, folks “start your ovens” (or in one case, your slow cooker—really!) because you are going to want to make these gluten-free bread recipes! (Note: The French bread recipes—including baguettes—that were previously included in this collection are now here.)
This recipe was updated from 2011. The photo above is from that original post.
Note that this collection previously included some recipes for challah. You can now find those recipes in the Top 20 Gluten-Free Challah Bread Recipes collection.
Top 20 Best Gluten-Free Bread Recipes
~ Artisan Bread from Allergy Free Alaska ~ gluten free, corn free, dairy free, egg free, nut free, gum free, vegetarian, vegan
Megan says: “This Artisan Gluten-Free Bread recipe produces a beautiful bakery-style loaf anyone can make at home! Vegan, nut-free, gum-free & nightshade-free.”
Reader reviews: “I just made this bread yesterday–and it’s delicious! I used to make dough from scratch for years before needing to shift to a gluten free diet ten months ago, and this was my first GF bread from scratch. I will definitely be making it again. It was really easy to assemble, it’s quick to put together, and it smells and tastes like legitimate bread (for my kids that miss “gluten bread” this is a huge plus!). I used the dutch oven method (a favorite from making regular artisan bread in the past) and it was fabulous.” and
“I just made this bread and it came out great. My first real homemade bread! And it’s good I’m so proud of myself. I actually used all sprouted flours and it worked fine. I’m super pleased!” and
“I have made this bread several times and it is fantastic. Each time I learn something and it I have tried it on a cookie sheet, a pizza stone and now in a Dutch oven.”

~ Best Ever Gluten-Free White Sandwich Bread from Kim at Let Them Eat Cake~ gluten free, vegetarian
Kim says this bread tastes like the Wonder-ful white bread you remember. As further proof, she adds that her gluten-full son loves this bread. By the way, Kim shows you exactly how to make this bread in her video with the recipe.
Reader reviews: “I have been gluten free for almost 7 years and have tried many GF bread recipes. I have to substitute xantham gum with psyllium husk since I react to it and most time the bread is mushy in the middle or too dense. Yours was AWESOME! While eating it, I kept saying this can’t be gluten free, it tastes just like the bread I use to eat. THANK YOU!!!!” and
“I’m now making this bread for the second time. I’m very pleased with the taste, texture, and especially the nice crust.” and
“This was so good that it actually made me cry! I haven’t been able to make soft “normal” sandwich bread since my celiac diagnosis until now. This is truly life-changing and I’m grateful for this recipe.”

~ Best Gluten-Free Sandwich Bread from Gluten-Free Gourmand ~ gluten free, rice free, corn free, dairy free, egg free, xanthan gum free, vegetarian, vegan
Gina says: “Bread is supposed to be made vegan. After all, a traditional french baguette is only water, flour, yeast, and salt. Once you get the gluten-free part down, the vegan part should be easy, right?” Her easy instructions make this gluten-free vegan loaf look very easy. And very good! Great reader reviews complete the picture.
Reader reviews: “This is the first GF vegan bread recipe that worked for me. It is also the first recipe where the loaf actually rose in the oven. Great texture and taste … I definitely will be making this recipe again.” and
“Excellent!! First GF dairy free, egg free bread recipe – that you can actually knead – that I’ve made in 10 years that actually works! And it tastes good!”

~ Best Gluten-Free Sandwich Bread from Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures~ gluten free, dairy free
Lynn says: “If you miss thin-sliced sandwich bread this Gluten Free Sandwich Bread is a must try!” She adds: “My family has declared this recipe the best gluten-free sandwich bread that they have ever had. I don’t call recipes the best very often, but we really think this is the best gluten-free store-bought or homemade sandwich bread that we have had. My husband and son do not have to eat gluten free and even they enjoyed this. In fact, my son chooses this over the loaf of regular bread that I had in the cupboard.”
Reader reviews: “This is hands down the BEST GF BREAD ever! This recipe is super easy too! I’ve made lots of GF bread recipes over the years and they all turn out dense and with a weird taste. Not the recipe though! It is so fluffy I told my husband it reminds me of dense angel food cake consistency. Also, it actually toasts in the toaster unlike other breads.” and
“I started making this recipe about 3 months ago & it’s awesome!! My husband, who doesn’t need to eat gluten free, loves it. He will eat a piece with butter as a snack. I have a difficult time finding white rice flour in my area. Brown rice flour is more plentiful. After researching I found I could replace the white with brown so I tried it. I actually like it better!! Thank you for the recipe, it’s wonderful!!”

~ Best Gluten-Free Teff Sandwich Bread from Gluten-Free Gourmand ~ gluten free, rice free, corn free, vegetarian, with dairy-free option
Reader reviews: “Made this last night and it turned out perfect!!!! Hubby & kid loved it too. That says a lot cuz hubby normally only likes extra soft store bought bread. He said this might be THE recipe. I subbed rice flour for sorghum and coconut for potato. Awesome texture- soft! prob needs only 30 -40 minutes cooking in electric oven. I did it at 350 too.” and
“I made the bread as is and it came out amazing. Thanks for the great recipe.” and
“I just made this bread today and I love it! I didn’t have potato starch so I substituted arrowroot starch/flour and it came out great. Thank you so much for this recipe!” and
“I just made this bread, and It’s FABULOUS! Many thanks for creating this great recipe!”
Best Gluten-Free Teff Sandwich Bread from Gluten-Free Gourmand
~ Buckwheat Bread from Allergy Free Alaska ~ gluten free, grain free, rice free, corn free, dairy free, egg free, nut free, refined sugar free, gum free, and vegan
Megan says: “You will be pleasantly surprised at how easy, yet savory and delicious this buckwheat bread is! This gluten-free vegan bread comes together quickly in your electric mixer and requires no kneading. So even when you’re pressed for time, you can still enjoy freshly baked bread at home.”
Reader reviews: “This bread is FANTASTIC! Buckwheat is not my favorite taste, but the soft squishy texture makes this a keeper in my book. Three out of three people who tried it (one not gluten-free) thought it was terrific, and somewhat reminiscent of rye bread. I may try adding caraway seeds next time!” and
“Baked two loaves, and they were fantastic! Love the taste and texture.” and
“This was awesome. Been baking gluten free for 10 years. I have made many bread recipes that I enjoy, but this one is the nearest to gluten bread In texture and crust. I did use buckwheat flour that I bought, live near a buckwheat mill. I did weigh all the ingredients as suggested and think that is key. Thank you for a GREAT recipe. Will definitely make again. FYI I did bake on a pizza stone.”
Gluten-Free Buckwheat Bread from Allergy Free Alaska
~ Blender Bread from Against All Grain ~ gluten free, grain free, dairy free, sugar free, paleo, primal
This amazing grain-free bread was the recipe that helped put Against the Grain on the map! Danielle says: “As I mentioned the other day, I still prefer my Sandwich Bread recipe from my first bookAgainst all Grain, but this one requires a lot less dishes and time so we make it more frequently. It works well toasted for a BLT sandwich, for almond butter and jam sandwiches, French toast, or even a panini.”
Reader reviews: “Made this bread today for the first time and I loved it! I toasted it for a BLT and it didn’t fall apart. This will be bread I will be baking frequently!” and “I tried this recipe last night. It is a very easy to make and easy clean up and tastes delish!” and “I tried this recipe last night. It is a very easy to make and easy clean up and tastes delish!” and “Successfully made this with sunflower seeds instead of cashews (kept everything else the same). Delicious! And a bonus sciency learning experience for us all when we learned about chlorophyll in the seeds and baking soda–the bread turns green! It is so cool–try it with your kids!”
Gluten-Free Grain-Free Blender Bread from Against All Grain
~ Classic White Sandwich Bread fromGluten-Free Gourmand~ gluten free, xanthan gum free, vegetarian
Gina used her husband, a gluten eater and bread lover, to try out her trials of this bread. Finally, he proclaimed to her after trying a sample of this latest bread: “you can make me this every weekend for the rest of my life.” Now, that’s an endorsement!
She added: “I know my husband likes a bread I made when he immediately plans what sandwich to make from it. Well, he’s done that for every test loaf I’ve made for this bread. A few days ago, in fact, he ate a breakfast sandwich with this bread, got catered burgers for lunch at work, then came home and requested a steak sandwich on the fresh loaf of bread I made. I mean, I knew he liked sandwiches, but now I have a sandwich bread he will consume multiple times daily.”
Reader reviews: “Made it today – turned out great! This will be my new “go to” bread. Thanks for all your work on this recipe!” and
“Thank you SO much for this lovely recipe! I can finally make GF bread for my daughter.” and
“This is a fantastic recipe. I adapted it into a brioche/sweet dough.” and
“I love this recipe and have made this bread successfully many times and have even made a 14″ loaf by increasing the quantities. No gumminess!”
Gluten-Free Classic White Sandwich Bread from Gluten-Free Gourmand
~ Easy Gluten-Free Bread from Audrey Roberts of Mama Knows Gluten Free~ gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian
Reader reviews: “I have been making this recipe now for a while, almost enough to memorize it. It is the best recipe I have found and leagues better than any store-bought GF bread I have tried. I use the Great Value brand of GF Flour from Walmart and active dry yeast. I use two whole eggs instead of 3 egg whites. I have used maple syrup instead of honey, and it still turned out great.” and
“I have tried a few GF bread recipes and this one is the winner. I used Robin Hood Gluten Free All Purpose flour. I love that it is quick, dairy free and delicious.” and
“After many dense, tasteless, crumbly loaves of bread, we made this one and absolutely loved it! So moist and fresh tasting, easy to slices we ate it without toasting it. I am not celiac and I was impressed at what a lovely loaf of bread this is. Followed the recipe with Cup4Cup flour and 1/2 tsp of Xanthan ……perfect!”
Easy Gluten-Free Bread from Mama Knows Gluten Free

Reader reviews: “This is the best tasting bread I have had in recent years and so easy to make I love it. Thank you.” and
“This is my go-to bread recipe. As a Coeliac, it’s been a game changer. I’ve tried other recipes and this one wins hands down. The only change I make is I add just a little more apple cider vinegar. I toss in toasted sunflower seeds to the mix as well. Thanks so much for sharing such a delicious bread recipe!” and
“Great recipe! My husband loved it. He has histamine intolerance and can’t tolerate whole psyllium husks. So I substituted 1/2 cup chia seeds and 1/2 cup flaxseed meal for the whole psyllium husks. I followed the recipe as written and just replaced the whole psyllium husks.
Thank you so much for the recipe!” and
“Wow. Thank you for sharing this recipe. This is the best vegan, gluten free, yeast free bread I’ve ever baked at home, and I have tried many over the years. Great texture, great taste, satisfyingly filling. Again thank you!”

“I couldn’t find Teff flour so I used Amaranth like you suggested. Wow……what an amazing-tasting loaf of bread and great texture too!! My son was very impressed!!” and

I tried the Oatmeal Millet bread and it’s incredible!! It tastes, smells and looks like bread – THANK YOU!” and
“I want to thank you so much for putting this recipe up. I made it today… Total success! I have tried many many many many bread recipes and this is the first one I’ve been able to make work. I made one substitution I used Namaste’s perfect flour blend instead of each of the different flours that you used in this recipe.” and

“Tonight I made this recipe again after close to a year of being too lazy (and busy) to bake my own bread. I’ve been craving THIS bread and I’m so glad I took the time to make it. I actually had it for dessert! I recommend it to so many people, and have made it at the holidays for non-GF guests who only knew it was GF because I was eating it. I follow the dry ingredient instructions to the letter but use rice milk because I can’t eat dairy.” and
“Thank you so much for this recipe. I have tried so many different recipes for Gluten Free bread that have turned out awful. Your bread looks just like the picture and tastes wonderful.”

“This is delicious. Thanks for a kid-approved recipe! We love it and use it for everything!” and

Karina said she started with a multi-grain bread recipe. She added: “My goal was to eliminate starch, and boost the protein power without resorting to bean flour. Quinoa flakes add a hint of oatmeal-like texture. Almond meal gives this tender bread a lovely, fragrant flavor. The crust on this loaf was pleasingly rustic.”

~Paleo Bread from me/gfe (Gluten Free Easily) ~ gluten free, grain free, rice free, corn free, dairy free, sugar free, yeast free, xanthan gum free, and paleo/primal. (It was inspired by this Golden Flax Bread.)
Reader reviews: ” I’ve been craving bread ever since I saw the recipe, even though I don’t typically bake bread that often. Just had to let you know that it is just as wonderful as I thought it would be! I used 4 eggs, 1/4 cup coconut milk and 2 tsp baking powder, and had to bake it for 35 minutes (maybe because of using the milk instead of the additional egg?) Anyway, I loved it, and so did my husband (who can eat anything). And it is so easy to put together.” and
“The texture is great, very similar to “normal” bread and it has a wonderful golden brown color. I think next time I will reduce the salt a bit and add a little stevia, as I like my bread a touch sweeter. It’s yummy! Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!”
~Perfect Gluten-Free Bread Made from a Mix and Baked in the Crockpot from Stephanie O’Dea at A Year of Slow Cooking ~ gluten free, vegetarian (Additional details on the bread—e.g., dairy free, egg free—will depend on which bread mix you use.)
Did you know that you can bake bread in your slow cooker?Stephanie used a gluten-free bread mix that is no longer available, but any ready-made gluten-free bread mix should work using her method. One reader simply used her favorite bread recipe and baked it in the crockpot using Stephanie’s directions.
Reader reviews: “Oh my, I just tried this. I have a 5 qt cooker, so I had to use an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 pan. I halved the bread mix recipe that I used and shortened the cooking time to 2 1/2 hours. Perfect! No caving, no sinking, no weird globby parts in the middle. A lovely rounded top and great texture. I’m stunned.” and
“I didn’t believe it could be done, so I mixed up a batch of my favorite bread dough from a recipe and threw it in my crockpot. WOW! It was great!”

~Brown Honey Bread from Mike Eberhart of Gluten-Free Blog~ gluten free, dairy free
Mike says: “This bread has a wonderful “honey wheat bread” flavor and texture, and is great for sandwiches, toast, French-toast, and so forth. We sprinkle the top with whole buckwheat kernels prior to baking, just for a little something extra. If you have an event coming up where you want to serve a great-tasting gluten-free bread, bake this bread recipe a few hours before the event and you will be sure to have a fresh-out-of-the-oven hit with your guests (and, chances are, most people will not even have a clue it is gluten-free).

Toasted was a revelation!!!!! Make this bread folks and you’ll never feel deprived of regular bread again!” and

Even my greatest critic (my son) likes it!! No more store-bought bread for me!” and “This is the absolute best bread and my go-to recipe now! It is so much better and cheaper than store bought. Its texture is amazing and so is the taste. Plus it comes together very quickly!” and
“I just made your sandwich bread in my bread maker. I put the wet first, then the dry, and sprinkled the yeast on top. Make sure your water is not too hot. The texture was great. The bread hot out of the bread maker was great with a little butter. It looks and tastes like white bread. I have a gluten-free setting, but I like to use the dough setting, then the bake setting.”

~ White Sandwich Loaf from From the Larder ~ gluten free, rice free, xanthan gum free, vegetarian
Reader reviews: “Hello, I have just baked this bread for the first time. It is a fantastic recipe. It tastes like bread!!! My other attempts at gf bread have not at all. I found the tip about checking the yeast invaluable (one lot thrown away) and also checked temp of bread with thermometer, until got 99 degrees C. Thank you 🙂” and “I have just made this today and it is absolutely fantastic! My first ever proper loaf with perfect instructions all the way – plus handy tips along the way. Thanks, Georgina!” and “This bread turned out perfect! The best gluten free bread! I also made the dough into buns for hamburgers…they were perfect also! Thank you for this recipe! I substituted almond milk for milk and a mixture of arrowroot powder and white rice flour for the potato starch, also two whole eggs in place of egg whites. So happy with this versatile recipe!”
