Review: Joan’s Gluten Free Italian Bread

Update: Joan’s Frozen gluten free Italian bread is no longer available. We have been going with Schar Ciabatta or Baguettes or Udi Baguettes. However, they are not exactly the same as Joan’s frozen dough.

When I was growing up, there was a wholesale bakery on Main Street in my hometown where you could buy fresh baked bread. If you passed by early in the morning, you would not be able to resist stopping in for a loaf of bread that was still warm from the oven.

Joan’s gluten free Italian bread always reminds me of that bakery beginning with the fresh baked smell which fills our home while it is in the oven and ending with amazing fresh baked taste.

Serving suggestions

There are 3 small loaves of frozen dough in each package which you may simply bake and serve as dinner appetizers with butter.

On the other hand, slice one open and melt mozzarella and parmigiana on top of meatballs and plenty of sauce for meatball parmigiana.

Another way is to layer a mouthwatering Italian combo of capicola, genoa salami, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar.

Easy directions to bake

Joan’s gluten free Italian bread at home:

1. Defrost overnight in the fridge, on the counter or in the microwave for 8 minutes on low.

2. Let dough rise slightly.

3. Bake in pre-heated 425℉  oven for 20-25 minutes.
