GLUTEN FREE BATTER BUNS



Gluten Free Batter Buns image

This recipe is in a cookbook that my Mother In-Law's LDS Relief Society had created for a fundraiser that she gave to me for Christmas about 8 years ago. I decided to try using Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free All Purpouse baking flour in the recipe for a gluten free way and they turned out great, coming out resembling a wheat roll. When I made them, I didn't have time to allow them to rise, so they came out pretty small. The batter will be like muffin batter. I used an ice cream scoop to pour them into the muffin pan. This will make 12 rolls.

Tips:

  • Use warm milk to activate the yeast and help the dough rise faster.
  • If you don't have instant yeast, you can use active dry yeast. Just be sure to bloom it in warm milk for 5-10 minutes before adding it to the dough.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour and make the buns light and fluffy.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will usually take about 1-2 hours.
  • Shape the dough into buns and place them in a greased baking pan. Let them rise for another 30-45 minutes before baking.
  • Bake the buns in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Serve the buns warm with butter, jam, or your favorite spread.
