What can I make a hamotzei on gluten free? Can’t have regular sourdough
I found gluten free bread at Costco but how do I know it’s hamotzie?

Most gf breads are not hamotzie.
It's only hamotzie if it's made using gf Oat flour.
I buy Rorie gf oat bread mix and make my own rolls. It says on the package if you could use for hamotzie

The only gf bread some people wash on is oat bread. Check with your Rav, because not everyone washes on oats. We make haadama.

Oat challah or matzo or there’s flour made of wheat starch, molino brand sold in bingo or King Arthur sells in national stores. Both would be hamotzi according to my Rabbanim the shaila is just how much you need to bentch.

Anything with oats is hamotzi. I also make challah with flour that has wheat starch.

Molino flour, sold in Israel, is made from wheat starch. The baked goods made from it are hamotzi/mezonos.

As others have said, almost all gluten free products are all shehakol. The only hamotzi possibilities are using oat flour, or molino flour (which is wheat flour without gluten).
If you are doing this for health reasons, rather than medical reasons, some would say it's better to have a small portion of regular challah, or spelt challos.
From a taste point of view, oat challos are sweeter but have a grittier texture. Molino challos had a better texture to eat, but the dough is much stickier and won't hold a shape. If you are making your own challos, be aware that many recipes are using a mix of flours and it has to be a certain percentage of oat/molino flour to be considered hamotzi.

there is a difference between oats and oat flour. Most rabbanim agree that
pastries made from steamed oats are haadamah, but pastries made from
oat flour are mezonos or hamotzi

It has to be MORE than 51% oats to be hamaotzie. otherwise you can be kovaya seudah with an extra cup of grape juice.

Could be, but my rav holds that oats is not one of the five grains and is therefore not hamotzi.

What does he say is the 5th grain. And can you share if he’s litvish, chassidish, sfardi?
