This is how there are so many gluten-free yeast breads on the market. A few gluten-free breads are yeast-free as well, but that is for those who have separate sensitivities to yeast or candida issues. Yeast for beer brewing is sometimes not gluten-free, but that is a different issue. -Sea Commercial brands of yeast for baking like Red Star and Fleischmann’s are gluten-free.

Just wondering about the yeast. Pretty sure people with coeliac disease can't have yeast. Or at least certain types of yeast. Hmmm… Just wondering about the yeast. Pretty sure people with coeliac

This one is great! I double it, cut it up and freeze it. Same as Christy, I make it without the olives because I don't like them. I also made a small change to try to get more whole grains in it and it works fine. I cut the white rice flour in half and added the amount I cut from the white rice flour to the brown rice four and teff flour. Seems to come out fine that way and hopefully increases the nutrient value a bit.

I left out the olives because my family doesn't like them, but the bread was great without them. Thank you for posting it! This was FANTASTIC!

I did make some changes because I didn't have the ingredients. I used sun-dried tomatoes instead of olives and chopped fresh basil instead of the other herbs. I also used a mix of oat flour, a gluten free bread flour blend and sorghum flour. I had to use gelatin instead of xanthan gum. Thanks so much for this recipe. I'm having a hard time controlling myself and not devouring it all! I love this bread! I did make some changes because I didn’t have the ingredients.

As I didn't have teff flour I used buckwheat and I was very pleased with the taste of the focaccia (I am Italian so I know a bit about it). The only problem is: I ate it all by myself. Very bad for the line.... but it was impossible to resist ;-) This was awesome!!

However, if you don't want to use either of those, you can just leave it out without any additions. The texture will not be quite as nice. If the recipe seems too liquid, you can add a little extra starch or flour if you prefer. -Sea Hi Cristiany,
