First, I created a gluten free flour mixture consisting of Amaranth, Sorghum, and a bit of Teff flour to help bind the final bread together a bit better. To this mixture I also added a dash of xanthan gum to help make this a bit more like the wonderful images I've seen people post on here.
Once I made the potato bread and it turned out wonderfully, I decided that I would make a focaccia. This was a particularly wonderful treat for me since I can't even remember the last time that I had focaccia. I made a rosemary, olive oil and sun dried tomato focaccia.
After making all of these I had a few friends come over and try out my first Daring Bakers challenge. I didn't tell them that I made them gluten free, and honestly, I don't think that they would have known if I didn't tell them when they were leaving. Thank you so much for posting this wonderful challenge. This recipe will certainly be something that I use on a regular basis.

I'm always so impressed by how your master bakers can make a very NON-Gluten free recipe completely gluten free. I'm so glad your friends like it - and didn't know the difference! Yay!

I'm impressed with all your substitutions! It's amazing that you were able to make the bread gluten-free! I'd love to see a picture. Great job!
Nice adaption for the gluten free loaf! Great job on your first challenge!
Like Lis, I'm always intrigued by the gluten-free folks and the magic they're able to make with these gluten-heavy recipes. Great work!
Wow, I have never made gluten-free bread and would love to know more about the proportions of the different flours you used. Congratulations on completing your fist challenge!
Congrats on completing your first challenge! Welcome to the group!
Tevis I'm in awe of gluten free! So happy to having you in the group!
I really admire how some of our DBers make breads gluten free. That is totally amazing to me and a great alternative for folks who can't take gluten. Sounds like a success!! Great job :)

Wow. Gluten free! It sounds like you did a great job. When no one detects something different, it's always a good thing!

Welcome to the Daring Bakers Tevis. Glad to see another GF baker in our bunch! If you get a chance it would be nice to see how your amaranth, sorghum, teff & potato bread turned out.

How wonderful that your friends had the bread and didn't know it was gluten-free! I'm glad you were able to make focaccia that you could enjoy!
