Use Coconut flour instead of your regular flour. I haven't tried it with a yeast bread recipe yet but it makes wonderful cakes with just a hint of the coconut. I know sugar feeds the yeast but there's no gluten in the coconut flour so it probably wouldn't rise. If you make a quick bread instead of a yeast bread, it would work. Coconut flour makes a nice raised cake.

Agree with the answers above but just to enhance the discussion. The gluten is the protein found in wheat and other grasses. It is unique in that it can form a stretchy matrix film that in bread is used to trap the carbon dioxide gas. So you cannot have raised bread without that stretchy film. If you make wheat free bread it does not raise as well or at all. The yeast is a totally different matter. The yeast ( a microbe) eats sugars and other carbohydrates to produce gas (CO2) which causes the bread to raise. I agree some people cannot eat gluten and therefore gluten free products are necessary. But yeast free? I've never heard of a yeast allergy although I suppose its possible. I cannot imagine someone who is allergic to gluten and yeast. PhD Food Chemistry and Nutrition
