1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the mixture. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix the gluten-free all-purpose flour, gluten-free rolled oats, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins, dried apricots, salt, and psyllium husk powder.
3. Once the yeast mixture is foamy, add the olive oil to the bowl and stir to combine.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a bit more warm water, a tablespoon at a time.
5. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until it doubles in size.
6. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a bun and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Let the buns rise for another 20 minutes, covered with a damp cloth.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
10. Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving or storing.
