Gluten-free bread is a type of bread made without gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. It is designed for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, who experience adverse reactions when consuming gluten. Instead of traditional flour, gluten-free bread often uses alternative flours such as rice flour, almond flour, or coconut flour. To achieve a similar texture and taste to regular bread, gluten-free recipes may include binding agents like xanthan gum or guar gum. These ingredients help mimic the elasticity that gluten provides. Gluten-free bread can be found in stores or made at home, catering to various dietary needs.
