Soft, fluffy, and slightly sweet, these Gluten-Free Homemade Hawaiian Rolls are a game-changer for those seeking a perfect bread that fits gluten-free dietary needs. Made with tropical pineapple juice and honey, these rolls capture the signature sweetness of classic Hawaiian bread while offering a tender crumb and golden exterior. The recipe uses gluten-free all-purpose flour and xanthan gum to recreate the elastic texture of traditional dough, and with the help of instant yeast, these rolls rise beautifully to perfection. Whether served warm alongside dinner, used for mini sandwiches, or enjoyed with a pat of butter, these gluten-free rolls are an irresistible addition to any meal. Ready in just under an hour and a half, this recipe is a must-try for anyone craving freshly baked bread without the gluten.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, instant yeast, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the softened butter, honey, pineapple juice, and milk until smooth and well combined.
Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil into the wet mix and whisk until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing with a stand mixer with a paddle attachment on low speed until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be sticky but hold its shape.
Using a lightly oiled ice cream scoop or hands, portion the dough into 12 equal-sized balls and arrange them in the prepared baking dish.
Cover the baking dish with a damp cloth and let the rolls rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Once risen, bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the rolls are cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let them cool in the baking dish for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Homemade Hawaiian Rolls!
