I’m so excited to continue A Bountiful Bread Basket,our gluten-free bread series, with these recipes foralternative breads today—specifically, the best gluten-free flatbread, focaccia, naan, and pita bread recipes. This is Part 6 of our series.I actually have more alternative gluten-free bread recipes to share with you, but I couldn’t fit them all in one post! And, admittedly, this post is still way overloaded!

Best Gluten-Free Flatbread Focaccia Naan and Pita Bread Recipes (1)

I’ve labeled the recipes per the blogger’s recipe and notes. All recipes are gluten free, of course, but I used the recipe titles from the blog posts so some say “gluten free” in the recipe title and some do not.

Also, I don’t normally indicate “nut free” in my own recipes or label recipes in roundups “nut free” based on ingredients (the way that I would dairy free, egg free, etc.) because I have not researched ingredients for their nut-free status, but if a blogger indicated that his/her recipe was nut free, I’ve included that information.

Please verify “free” status to your own comfort level and if you’re gluten free and nut free, don’t zip past a recipe because it’s not labeled “nut free.” A quick skim of the recipe ingredients might indicate that it will work for you after all.

By the way, if a recipe looks appealing but you’d need to make substitutions for your own personal needs, please take a look at comments on the original recipe posts. So often readers give a recipe a try with substitutions and report back on their results—successful and unsuccessful—so that can save you some frustration and add more recipes to your repertoire!

Important Tip: Once you click on a link and are taken to the actual recipe, remember that you can search reader comments to determine if the substitution you have in mind will work. For example, if you want to know if a flax gel egg can be substitution for a chicken egg, do Ctrl-F (the search feature—“F” stands for “Find”) and type in flax. If flax is found, click on “next” beside the search bar reading each occurrence and then clicking “next” again until you’ve read all the comments that include flax. Chances are you’ll find your answer, and chances are that there are more recipes here that you can safely enjoy than are indicated by the labels. So if a recipe looks and sounds good to you, by all means click over to the post, skim the ingredients and also use the Ctrl-F capability to check out comments for substitution info.

Reader reviews: “This is the best focaccia “bread” I’ve ever had in my life. I’m a LONG time fan of yours, but now I think I am going to have to name a kid after you or something. THANK YOU.” and “Just made this!! Love it! Smothered it with some grass fed butter.” and“Finally got around to baking this bread last night, and it’s already clear that it will be a staple in our home. Next time I’ll try adding cinnamon instead of Italian seasoning — while my honey likes savoury foods, I’m more of a sweets gal.” and “So just made this in large muffin form. I’m thinking: eggs benny, with bacon and this bread below. Yeah? Yeah. I think so.”

Kylie says: “Ethan loves these rolls! They’re sturdy without being crumbly and are soft and moist. The sprinkling of sea salt and Italian herbs on top gives a great burst of flavour too. As Ethan is always hungry (like every teenage boy), I’ve made them a decent size so that he can fit as many fillings as he likes in there!”

Mary says this bread is: “light, airy, and moist, but it’s also full of flavor and needs nothing but a knife. I could barely contain myself from cutting into the loaf as it cooled because the aromas were intoxicating.

Reader reviews: “I saw this over the weekend and had to try it out – so easy and soooo delicious – thank you! I too have spent time in Italy and am so thrilled to have the chance to eat focaccia again!” and “We made this focaccia last night! It was absolutely yummy! We are making it again today. One thing I learned is don’t add extra water. It made it take longer to bake. But when I realized what was happening, I took the bread out and cut it into wedges and then put it back in the oven on cookie sheets and baked 15 minutes more. It turned out just fine.”

Jennifer says: “This recipe for flatbread is designed to be sort of a staple–you can use it to make anything you want. You can make pizza, you can make a dessert, you can eat it with guacamole, with salsa, with pâté.” She adds that it will be flexible, very similar to gluten-full flatbread.

It needed more flavor, but I was more testing it for texture and sturdiness – TOTALLY worked!” and “Ok, I have made this recipe twice in the last 12 hours and it is awesome!” and “It’s funny – I’ve been making oat crepes with this same concept forever but it never occurred to me to switch up the ingredients and create a flat bread. I just made these using a mix of millet and buckwheat and they made a great flat bread for dips. I’m definitely going to experiment with herbs in the future. Thanks so much for a great gf flat bread that is easy to whip up.”

Reader reviews: “I split these and cut into quarters, spread them on a cookie sheet inside up, sprayed them with olive oil and garlic powder and a little sea salt. I popped them in the oven until golden and served them with homemade hummus. They were fantastic! My son has been craving pita. He requests Arabic food all the time and I usually make crusty bread for him, but it is not the same as eating it with pita. Thank you!” and “SUCCESS!! Jules, I just made these for dinner and they turned out close to perfect. I undercooked them about 1 minute (guess) but rather than that than overcooked. I didn’t try to split them as they were slightly underdone. Even my husband liked them. Served them with red lentil soup with coconut milk and tri-colored quinoa. Beautiful.” and “I used this recipe to make naan… I spread out the dough more, about 7 inches in diameter, and cooked them on a griddle, my indoor solution for when I don’t feel like cooking them on the grill… I was absolutely pleasantly surprised!”

Kate says: “This dough can be flattened thinly used to make crackers (picture above) or formed into pita/naan/flatbread (into which I slide a thin sharp knife for sandwiches), etc. Adjusting the baking times can be adjusted to add more flexibility (more moisture) or a light crisp airy crust (like the pita below).I’ve even pan-fried them in a little olive oil with a generous sprinkling of sea-salt to make a nice crisp crust.I love the fact that recipes are so versatile. Makes for easier on-the-spot adjustment!As I finish writing this post, I realize that we’ve now eaten the 8th or 9th batch with this recipe.”

Gluten-Free Naan from Healthful Pursuit

~ Gluten-Free Quinoa Flour Naan from Simply Quinoa ~ gluten free, dairy free, egg free, refined sugar free, vegetarian

Alyssa says: “You’ll not only love how easy it is to make, but you’ll adore the pillowy texture. And here’s the kicker…the recipe makes at least six flatbreads. So you can have some for dinner and freeze the rest for later. We usually make a batch, eat three and freeze the other three, then make mini naan pizzas for a quick, delicious dinner later in the week.” Note that she uses toasted quinoa flour in this recipe. Many of you who have not liked quinoa flour will find that toasted quinoa flour is quite nice.
