Whether you’re looking to improve your health or your know-how about gluten-free baking, the Gluten-Free Bread Basics course outfits you with the tools, recipes, and know-how to confidently bake flatbreads, quick breads, yeasted breads, and sourdough (even if you claim that you “can’t bake”).
When you’re “gluten-free,” sometimes all you want is a sandwich. And not one that breaks into sad, dry crumbles with each pathetic bite. You want a burger with its bun… Bagels… English muffins… Toast with jam… You want normalcy.
Being “gluten-free” shouldn’t feel like punishment. It shouldn’t be about cutting nutritional corners either—trying to pass off fiber-void, sawdusty, just-plain-strange breads as healthful, or edible. It’s time to say “goodbye” to heartbreaking baking failures and money-sucking recipe experiments, and “hello” to game-changing sandwich loaves, monkey bread, and tortillas.
Gluten-Free Bread Basics is a 4-week plant-based, gluten-free online baking course designed for all eaters. Whether you’re gluten-free or gluten-full, this course brings new flavors, ingredients, and variety to your life by teaching you the basics for wholesome baking with quality ingredients.
Learning how to bake gluten-free can be fun and stress-free. This course doesn’t require zoom calls or live schedules to keep up with. We’ve designed it so once the weekly modules go live, you can login and learn when you want. And you also have access to the course as long as you want it.
The Gluten-Free Bread Basics course is designed to make everyone at the table happy whether you love cornbread or sourdough. So, instead of talking about what you can and can’t eat, you can just eat.

YUMUNIVERSITY INSTRUCTORS HAVE BEEN FEATURED IN:

This course is a judgment-free zone. We teach you how to bake classic plant-based, gluten-free breads not because they’re trendy, but because they’re versatile, delicious, and they make baking and eating more fun for all.
All recipes are 100% plant-based, gluten-free, and vegan (with the exception of honey in a few recipes, but we provide substitutions in those instances)
When you or someone you’re baking for goes “gluten-free,” making changes can seem like an impossible challenge. And what if you also want to avoid eggs, and other dairy? Well, Gluten-Free Bread Basics has you covered.
No more heading to the gluten-free flour aisle, wondering “what flour is best for what?” or “what will I actually use instead of it collecting dust in the pantry?”
We’ve been teaching gluten-free bakers since 2016, and sharing gluten-free recipes since 2009. Years of ingredient and recipe testing, research, and baking hours have gone into the development of this course.
You don’t have to go through the trial and error, being unsure of how to use gluten-free alternatives, the disappointment of a recipe gone wrong, or feeling that burning FOMO at a BBQ when everyone is eating sliders with a bun (and you wrap yours in lettuce). We’ve been there, and it’s why we created this course. You can have toast, bagels, tortillas, and sandwiches again in no time.
We like to think (and prove!) that being “gluten-free” is a culinary advantage. We’ll help you bake breads so good, you don’t need to “label” it.
Gluten-Free Bread Basics is a course designed to change lives—join us and let’s get baking.
