Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum (omit if your flour blend already includes it)
- 1 tablespoon Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.25 cups Warm milk (dairy or non-dairy, about 110°F)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted, or a dairy-free alternative)
- 2 pieces Eggs (large, room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum (if applicable), instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Whisk to combine and ensure even distribution.
In a small bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, eggs, and apple cider vinegar.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. You can use a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed for about 3-5 minutes, or mix by hand until the dough is smooth and sticky.
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Using a large spoon or an ice cream scoop, portion the dough evenly into the prepared muffin tin or shape into roll-sized balls and place in the baking dish. The dough will be sticky, so greasing your hands may help.
Cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 20-25 minutes, or until it has visibly puffed.
While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Once risen, bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow when tapped.
Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm, with butter or your favorite spread. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
