The Best Gluten-Free Bread Makers in the UK (2026)

By the Bread Wise editorial team · Updated 2026 · How we test & score

For anyone avoiding gluten, a bread maker with a dedicated gluten-free programme is a game-changer, giving you fresh bread that's hard to buy well and expensive in the shops. The gluten-free setting adjusts the mix and bake for gluten-free flour.

What to look for

An important note on coeliac safety

A domestic bread maker with a gluten-free setting is not the same as a certified gluten-free environment. If you have coeliac disease, cross-contamination matters: clean the pan, paddle and lid thoroughly, and ideally don't share the machine with normal flour. This is general guidance, not medical advice.

Frequently asked questions

Can any bread maker make gluten-free bread?

It's much better with a dedicated gluten-free programme, which adjusts mixing and baking for gluten-free flour. Without one, results are unreliable.

Is bread-maker bread coeliac-safe?

The gluten-free programme helps, but a shared domestic machine isn't certified coeliac-safe due to cross-contamination. Clean it thoroughly and avoid sharing with wheat flour. General guidance, not medical advice.

Bottom line

Our top pick is the Bread Maker (our score 9.6/10) - A practical bread maker for fresh home-baked bread with minimal effort..
