Introducing the easiest and tastiest Gluten Free Focaccia you’ll ever make!
It’s also vegan meaning it’s free-from egg and dairy too so perfect for those suffering with multiple food allergies.
The best bit is this focaccia takes just 5 minutes to prepare before going in the oven so it’s a really quick and easy side to share with family/friends.
Here is why you’re going to love this focaccia:
- Extremely Easy
- 5 mins prep
- 4 key ingredients
- Versatile
- Perfect for sharing
- Gluten free & Vegan
Using these simple gluten free ingredients
You may notice a secret ingredient which is yoghurt, to make this a dairy free focaccia I use coconut yoghurt.
It’s a really useful ingredient when making gluten free bread.
Making this gluten free & vegan dough couldn’t be any easier. Simply adding the 4 ingredients to a mixing bowl and mixing until you form a large dough ball.
Then you simply push the free from dough into a baking tray and top with whatever you want before placing in the oven for 25 minutes.
Firstly the smell it creates in your kitchen is incredible!
Once it comes out the oven it’s crispy on the outside but still fluffy on the inside.
The flavour the toppings give this make it incredibly tasty and the perfect side to wow your gluten free friends!

- Large pinch salt
Toppings

Instructions
- Pre-heat your oven to 200C

Love this recipe idea. I can’t use most pre-mixed packaged flours as the seem to all have buckwheat in them, which I’m allergic to.
Have you got any suggestions for a good mix of individual flours to use instead?
Hi James,
I tried making this yesterday and it didn’t work out great. It’s really dense. Maybe I overworked the GF Self Raising flour? Could you recommend a runny yoghurt? Maybe it wasn’t runny enough.
Thanks!
Sorry about that Niamh, yes don’t really need to “work” the dough at all. I used Koko coconut yoghurt 🙂 let me know how you get on next time!
I’ve made this twice in two days it’s sooooooo delicious!!! Thank you so much I’m having gf focaccia after 10 years!!!
Do you have a gf raisin bread recipe without eggs?
Yay so pleased you’ve enjoyed it Krish 🙂 I don’t yet unfortunately but it’s on my list!
I made this last night with plain vegan yoghurt as the coconut was sold out. It was gorgeous Fabulous recipe. Thanks very much
Hi James,
Hope you’re ok and safe
Can i use normal greek style yogurt. will halving the recipe make a difference to the focaccia?
Were self isolating due to the covid 19 and can’t get any more other than I have in my pantry.
Hey Ann, absolutely! Let me know how you get on 🙂
Hi do you have a replacement for the yoghurt? I’m in South America and they do not sell vegan yoghurt at all.
Thanks
Hey Vee, hmm I can’t think of a replacer for it as it’s a key ingredient. Let me have a think on that one!
Hi james, by any chance you know which type of flours which are gluten and wheat free I can use instead? E.g. rice, buckwheat. Does the flour has to be self-raising?
Hey, I think it definitely works best with the self raising flour as it gives it more of a light fluffy texture inside. Other flours like buckwheat will be very dense. You could try normal gluten free flour and add baking powder to it!
Absolutely scrummy! Super quick, very easy to make and incredibly tasty. I haven’t had focaccia in a very long time and this will now be a favourite recipe! Thank you
Thank you Amy 🙂 so pleased you enjoyed it!
Can I use regular self rising flour and plain vegan yogurt that may not be coconut? I’ve missed eating focaccia bread. I’m not gluten free but I am vegan. Thanks for the recipe.
Hey Maxine, that should work. Let me know how you get on 🙂
