Looking for a healthy plant-based bread?

I can't eat gluten and all the gluten free products in the supermarket have all these weird ingredients in them.

I live in the UK and was wondering if anybody knew of any healthy gluten-free plant-based bread that isn't expensive and is accessible?

Thank you sooo much - and Happy New Year! :)

Being gluten-free AND vegan can be a challenge.

I became gluten-intolerant about a year ago. So far, none of the gluten-free breads I've tried have been much good, except the Schar products, which are pretty good. The Schar company is based in New Jersey, but they sell worldwide. I know they have outlets in France, so maybe you can find them in the UK too. They are a little pricey, though.

I've taken to eating homemade corn bread. Very satisfying and nourishing. Here's a good recipe, courtesy of Sheknows-

In place of the wheat flour, I just substitute a cup of gluten-free pancake mix I get from the local Mennonite store, but you could just as easily use a rice-based or other gluten-free flour. (I also use canola oil, not coconut oil, because it's what I have on hand.)

Good luck!

Aren't the sprouted grain breads typically gluten free? Like Ezekial?
I'm in the U.S> BTW
Have you tried Helgas?

We don't eat a lot of gluten or wheat in our house. I haven't tried the gluten free breads that Helgas make, but I love their Light Rye (I once ate half a loaf, without anything on it....Because I'm weird). They're a little more expensive than the really cheap breads, but they're very nice.

They have a few breads on their website that are gluten free-

I know the last time I checked, they were also animal product free. Hope that helps.
I wish I knew of a gluten-free bread that was good.


You might enjoy including cornbread or corn tortillas into your diet, instead.

No, sprouted wheat still contains gluten: http://www.livestrong.com/article/523496-the-gluten-in-ezekiel-bread/
^ Okay, I must be thinking of Food for Life, the company that makes Ezekial.

They make a number of gluten free breads, but from the site doesn't look like it's in the U.K.
