This delicious gluten free focaccia is super easy and quick to make. It can either be cut into little pieces and served with toothpicks as a gluten free appetizer at a party or served with some lettuce or soup. For example with my Chunky carrot soup or some Leek salad or with Beetroot carpaccio.
This recipe has a taste of summer in the Southern France region called Provence with its signature herbs. Well, Italy and the French region called Provence are pretty close. That's why there are some similarities between the two cuisines. The French equivalent of the Italian focaccia is "fougasse bread". Fougasse bread is the Provencal version of focaccia.
📖 Ingredient notes
- Almond flour. It will give a delicious nutty flavor to your focaccia bread.
- Gluten free flour. I usually use brown rice flour as I enjoy its neutral flavor. But you can use another gluten free flour (for example buckwheat flour) or all purpose gluten free flour.
- Plain yogurt. Make sure to use non dairy yogurt (I like to use coconut yogurt) if you are vegan or dairy free. If you are not, you can use dairy yogurt. I have made this recipe multiple times, with any kind of dairy or non dairy yogurt. They all work out really great.
- Olive oil. Make sure to use extra virgin olive oil.
- Olives (seeds removed). I recommend that you use pitted olives. Well once, I made a mistake and used olives that still had their seeds. Technically it works, it's just way less convenient to eat in a focaccia bread. One more thing: you can either use black or green olives, it's up to you.
- Herbs de Provence. It is a mix of dried herbs (rosemary, savory, oregano and thyme). You can use whichever of those herbs you have on hand if you don't have herbes de Provence in your pantry. If you want more recipes using Herbes de Provence, you can make my Chicken kabobs (AIP, paleo, whole30) or my French Tomato Tart.

Tastes great but it is very crumbly and does not hold together.
