Yes yes, we know gluten free living has become trendy but it’s also very real for those suffering with gluten intolerance or Celiac disease. Celiac Awareness Month is quickly approaching next month so we thought we’d prep by sharing some allergen free goodies! BFree Foods has a dense line of non-GMO gluten free breads, bagels and wraps to ease the stress and limitations of gluten intolerance and Celiac disease.
BFree isn’t loafing around when catering to food sensitivities. Their products are:
- Egg Free
- Soy Free
- Nut Free
- Vegan.
And they’re on a roll with their nutrition profiles.
- BFree has much more fiber than your typical gluten free bread with a shorter list of ingredients.
- Uniquely, they have a pea protein blend in the mix so you can get your muscle fix.
- Additionally, their products are low in fat and calories!
Donut you wanna know what they taste like?
Breakfast: BAGEL
Multiseed Bagel and White Bagel
Does the BFree Bagel rise to occasion? The quinoa and poppy seed crunch on the multi-seed bagel adds a depth of texture and flavor. We dough know about you, but gluten free bagels were a new odyssey for us. Although structurally bagel-esque, they lack the chewy texture we clamor for in bagels. The multi-seed bagel was a bit crumbly and needed to be toasted to hold up to sticky peanut butter. Our tip: add vegan butter after toasting the bagels to moisten um’ up.
On-the-Go Breakfast: BFree Multiseed Bagel with Almond Butter.
Eggs, vegan Daiya pepperjack cheese and BFree Foods white bagel.
Lunch Box: LOAVES & BUNS
Brown Seeded Loaf and Soft White Sandwich Loaf
Other gluten free loaves? Baguette-about um! These loaves are cut length wise, making them perfect for paninis and tasty for toast. They are also hole free so your toppings won’t slip through the cracks. The bread could have a bit more flavor but it’s mild nature makes it suitable for any topping. The Soft white sandwich bread is perfect for tea parties or any gatherings when you have friends and family members with different allergies.

White Plain Hot Dog Buns and Brown Seeded Hot Dog Buns
The buns are not your typical hot dog buns but are a great substitute, although easily breakable. We created vegan banh mi sandwiches with the brown seeded buns for our friends and they loved it!
Vegan banh mi sandwich with Nasoya marinated teriyaki tofu, organic carrot slaw, white and red radishes, lemon vinegrette, jalapeno, cilantro and BFree Brown Seeded Bun.
Dinner: ROLLS
Brown Seeded Rolls and White Rolls
The white rolls mimic a dense ciabatta and make a solid breakfast or dinner sammie holder when toasted. Get decadent and spread some garlic sea salt coconut ghee on the brown seeded roll before topping!

Other Products Wheat Loaved to Try (HA!)
We are curious about the sweet potato wraps and the quinoa chia seed and flaxseed wraps. The only other brand of gluten free wrap we’ve tried was formed from rice flour and the wrap had too stiff of a texture.
