Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 150 milliliters Warm water
- 1 Egg
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 120 grams Canned sardines in olive oil
- 1 small Onion
- 1 Garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the warm water, egg, and olive oil until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while mixing with a wooden spoon or spatula until a sticky dough forms.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the sardine filling. Drain the canned sardines and mash them with a fork in a medium bowl.
Finely dice the onion and garlic, and saute them in a small pan with a tablespoon of olive oil until translucent.
Add the sauteed onion and garlic to the mashed sardines, along with the tomato paste, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix well.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
After the dough has risen, using floured hands, divide it into 4 equal portions.
Flatten each dough portion slightly on a floured surface and place a generous spoonful of the sardine filling in the center.
Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch them together to seal, forming a bun shape.
Place the filled buns seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the buns are golden brown and firm.
Allow the buns to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free sardine buns warm or at room temperature.
