Can one ever have too many great gluten free bread recipes? No. I didn’t think so. Then I’ll go ahead and say you’re welcome for adding to your recipe box with this savory gluten free Italian Bread.
Bake in your oven or bread machine and sit back while the aromatic smell of Italian herbs wafts through your kitchen and all you did was use my easy gluten-free Pizza Crust Mix to make the magic happen!
Just think of all the delectable sandwiches that will now be made even better with bread that complements tangy fillings. Or garlic bread — are you kidding me? … Next level Texas toast. I’m just getting started here. What will you create?
The key to this bread magic is my award-winning gfJules Pizza Crust Mix. That’s it. The herbs are already inside!
Of course, feel free to add more if you like.
Fresh rosemary or other herbs you have on hand would be wonderful added into the mix along with the garlic and oregano already included.
The loaf pictured here is baked in a Panasonic Bread Machine (see my gluten free bread machine reviews for the model number and full review) and was prepared and ready for serving in about 2 hours. Very little effort, very high reward!
In fact, I shared this bread with a gluten-free family in my community and here was their take on this new recipe:
OMG this bread may be the best we’ve ever had — ever, with gluten, without.
So if you like easy, if you like savory, if you like best … then I’d say this is one gluten free bread recipe you should really try soon!

Hello,
What kind of GF Flour could I use to replace your GF Jules mix in this recipe? I ask because I am allergic to herbs and I cannot eat corn starch. I have been GF for a few years and am recently egg free and in need of some decent recipes. Thank you!
