Last Updated on 12/19/2019

A positively easy and delicious gluten-free and dairy-free cast iron skillet focaccia bread made with fennel seeds, rosemary, tomatoes and onions.

I whipped up this delightful bread whilst fancying a creative whim . . .

I knew I was in need of a good gluten free bread — the kind that fools you into thinking that you are eating gluten. Then I thought aiming for a focaccia would be a great place to start. This hit the nail on the head! Not only does it have a wonderful flavor and texture, but it is also super duper quick and easy to scratch together. Win-win.

Throw in a pop of beautiful color with red onion, golden cherry tomatoes, and spices, and find yourself with one heck of a beautiful bread, too!

If you’re looking to wow your guests (or yourself) with a beautiful, and delicious bread – you will be pleased with this one. I promise!
