Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 75 grams Unsalted Butter
- 50 grams Granulated Sugar
- 2 units Large Eggs
- 120 milliliters Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 100 grams Raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. You can use an electric mixer for this.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add the milk and vanilla extract, and continue beating until the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold the raisins into the batter using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking tray, forming 8 equal mounds.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the buns to cool on a wire rack before serving.
