Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and yeast. Stir gently and let sit for about 5 minutes or until it becomes foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, and baking powder. Mix well.
Add the yeast mixture, olive oil, egg, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until the dough is well combined and smooth.
The dough will be sticky. Use a spoon to drop 8 equal portions onto the prepared baking sheet. Use wet hands to shape them into smooth round balls.
Brush the tops of the rolls lightly with olive oil to help them brown and to provide a nicer crust.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
