Healthy and Easy Homemade Gluten Free Bread

Jump to Recipe

if you’ve ever wanted a gluten-free bread that actually tastes like real white bread, this one is it!!

soft, fluffy, and perfectly tender, it’s made with simple ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.

think of this as your upgraded version of white bread — only it’s packed with protein, made with wholesome ingredients, and completely gluten-free.

the taste + texture

this bread has that mild, comforting flavor we all love in a classic loaf.

there’s a little tang from the greek yogurt, just the right hint of sweetness from a touch of honey, and a soft, chewy interior that feels like traditional bakery bread.

the crust is golden and slightly crisp. each slice holds up beautifully for toast, sandwiches, or simply with a swipe of butter or nut butter.

what makes it gluten-free

instead of wheat flour, we’re using a high-quality gluten-free 1:1 flour blend that already contains xanthan gum.

that little bit of binder helps mimic gluten’s structure, so the loaf rises tall and stays soft instead of crumbly.

yeast still works exactly the same way here, it just needs the right mix of starches and moisture to get that perfect rise.

why it’s healthy

this loaf is proof that bread can be part of a nourishing routine.

each slice has a balance of complex carbs, healthy fats, and protein from eggs and greek yogurt.

greek yogurt not only keeps the crumb moist and tender, but also adds extra nutrients like calcium and probiotics.

macros per slice (based on 12 slices)

118 calories · 5.8g protein · 14.6g carbs · 3.9g fat · 1.3g fiber

the numbers make it a total win for balanced breakfasts and lunches.

how to keep it soft + fresh

once your loaf is completely cool, store it in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature for up to 3 days.

to keep it longer, slice the loaf and freeze the pieces individually — they toast up perfectly from frozen.

for freezing, slice the loaf first, separate slices with parchment, and store in an airtight container or freezer bag.

this way, every slice reheats perfectly — soft on the inside with a light golden edge.

avoid refrigerating it, since that can dry out gluten-free bread faster.

how to reheat

to keep your gluten-free bread soft and sliceable, skip the broiler and go for gentle heat.

broiling dries the bread too quickly, which can cause slices to crumble.

instead, toast it on a medium toaster setting or bake at 325–350°F for 5–6 minutes until warm and lightly crisp.

if you freeze your bread, microwave a slice for 15–20 seconds to soften it before toasting, or wrap it in a damp paper towel and heat for 10–15 seconds to bring back that fresh-baked texture.

easy process

this recipe couldn’t be easier.

you don’t need to knead it, and a hand mixer or sturdy spatula will do all the work.

mix your wet ingredients, add the dry, let it rise in a warm spot, then bake until golden. that’s it. no special techniques required, just a little patience while the yeast works its magic.

add-in options

you can totally customize this loaf depending on your mood:

• herb and garlic: add 1 tsp italian seasoning and ½ tsp garlic powder.
• sweet version: swap honey for maple syrup and add 1 tsp vanilla.
• seed crust: sprinkle the top with sunflower, pumpkin, chia, and hemp seeds before baking for a healthy crunch.
• dairy-free: use a thick dairy-free yogurt alternative, like coconut or almond yogurt.
