Take the guesswork out of gluten free grocery shopping! Here’s a list of the best gluten free bread products on the market. Want to bake your own? We’ve got you covered with recipes for Sandwich Bread, Flaky Biscuits, soft and buttery Crescent Rolls, and Garlic Breadsticks!
What’s the one thing you miss the most since starting a gluten free lifestyle?
Nearly everyone I talk to says it’s bread… A sandwich that doesn’t crumble. A piece of bread that isn’t grainy. A bagel. It doesn’t seem like too much to ask, right? (right??)
We’ve tried a LOT of gluten free products over the years, and here are the ones that made the top of our list. What are your favorite brands/products for gluten free breads? Please share in the comments below!

The Best Gluten Free Breads
Sandwich bread
Franzbread is one of our favs. We buy it in 2 packs at Sam’s Club or you can find it at Walmart in the bread section (imagine that, ha!) Each loaf is sealed and it’s good for a month or two on the shelf if it’s left unopened. Once opened, just twist tie it closed or put in an airtight container store at room temp for up to a week. It doesn’t crumble at all and you can just pull out a slice and make a sandwich without toasting. Great for lunches!
Canyon BakehouseRye Style is my favorite gluten free bread. Their breads make a mean grilled cheese sandwich or French Toast and can also be stored at room temperature without becoming crumbly, making them perfect for sandwiches. They have a wide variety of bread products and reasonable prices on their website, making them one of our all-time favorite gf bread brands. They recently came out with a Heritage Loaf that’s features large, full size slices. Because we love them so much, they agreed to give you a coupon for 20% OFF your first order!

Bagels
Canyon Bakehouse also makes great-tasting bagels. We love them for bagel sandwiches or smeared with cream cheese, and the cinnamon raisin is delicious when subbed for bread in French toast.

Where to Buy: Their website is the best option I’ve found. Use the code above on your first order.
Udi’s makes a mean bagel. Varieties include Plain, Whole Grain, Cinnamon Raisin, and Everything.
Our favorite brand of gf tortillas isUdi’s. If you briefly pan fry it (20-30 seconds each side over medium heat) with a bit of oil, they’re perfectly pliable and don’t tear or break. We love to serve them with these Thai Peanut Wrapsor as Pizzadillas.
Where to Buy: You can find Udi’s tortillas in the freezer section at Target, sometimes Walmart, and some grocery stores.
BFREE Foods recently came out with pita bread that we think is pretty amazing. You can find it in the bakery section of Smith’s along with their wraps, buns, breads, and rolls (we like them all).
If you’re craving a baguette,Udi’s has you covered. These are definitely worth the splurge, you probably haven’t had a chewy-in-the-center-crispy-on-the-edges bread like this since you’ve started eating gluten free.
Against the Grain makes a baguette that is very allergy friendly. It tastes like a cross between Brazilian cheese bread and an actual baguette, our whole family liked it.
If you’re in Northern UT, Sweet Cake Bake Shop makes great rolls. They also carry bread in large loaves, it tastes just like homemade. They have shops in SLC and Kaysville.
Dedicated GF bakery. Contact bakery for full ingredient list.
Where to Buy: You can find Udi’s tortillas in the freezer section at Target, sometimes Walmart, and some grocery stores.
BFree is one of our favorite brands. You can find their products on their own little rack in the bakery section of Smith’s. We love their rolls because they’re soft enough to eat fresh out of the package and don’t have to be stored in the freezer.
Sandwich Bread: Of course, there’s nothing quite like homemade bread fresh out of the oven! If you’re craving the smell of bread baking and a soft and warm slice of bread,here’s a recipe you’re sure to love, with step-by-step instructions and photos.
I came across your site today out of desperation for homemade bread again since I found out I was celiac a year ago, and as luck would have it, I’m in northern Utah too! thank you SO MUCH for this list!! It will be a life-saver for me when I go back to school next month!
I’m so glad you found us! This is exactly the reason I put together this list, and I’m so happy it helps. Are you coming to the My Gluten Free World Expo in Provo this weekend? -Celeste
Hi Joan! I think that’s something we all have in common 😉 Our favorite for gluten free doughnuts is a mix you can get from Gluten Free Heaven. We’ve had it several times and they’re just like real, fried, doughnuts. Here’s their site: https://www.glutenfreeheaven.com/
Living on Southern Vancouver Island I am lucky to have several great producers locally. Portofino Bakeries in Victoria carries and amazing onion / cheese bread. There is a gluten free bakery in Duncan called Bake My Day that carries wonderful “take and bake” pastry , all purpose doughs and my favourite item in the shop is their raspberry lemon curd tart. A bite of heaven. There are good local store brand sandwich loaves that are delicious and very budget friendly, Save on Foods is #1 and followed closely at #2 is Thrifty Foods sandwich bread.
