If you’re looking for gluten-free bread alternatives, there are plenty of good options out there. I’m partial to homemade recipes, but there are lots of store-bought options available too these days.
My Favorite Gluten-Free Bread Alternatives
Many grocery stores offer a few gluten-free bread options, but not all brands are the same so you might want to opt for a variety that’s made with whole ingredients and doesn’t contain too much added sugar. I sometimes like to make my own at home too. Here’s a list of my favorite recipes and easy store-bought ideas that can make great gluten-free bread replacements:
1. Homemade Gluten-Free Bread
Making your own gluten-free bread is a great option if you’re up for it. This nutritious flourless bread recipe is actually very easy to make. And in addition to being gluten-free it’s also vegan and grain-free.

Another yummy homemade bread recipe you can try is this gluten-free buckwheat bread. It’s easy to make and loaded with earthy flavor and nutrients.
2. Homemade Gluten-Free Tortillas
These chickpea flour tortillas are definitely worth a try. They’re sturdy enough for wraps and tacos and have a mild, slightly earthy flavor. These can easily be made at home and are a great gluten-free bread replacement.
3. Lettuce Wraps
Lettuce wraps are a lighter (and refreshing!) gluten-free alternative to traditional bread. Use sturdy leaves like romaine, iceberg, or butter lettuce for the best results. Then wash and dry the leaves, remove any thick stems, and fill the leaves with anything you like (tofu and hummus are my favorites). Then just wrap them up and enjoy.
4. Rice Cakes
Rice cakes are perfect if you want something really easy with a bit of crunch. I like to top them with nut butter and a drizzle of jam or a couple of Medjool dates for sweetness. Or you can add savory toppings like mashed avocado, hummus, and sliced tomatoes.
