Instructions
- First, combine the gluten free flour, sugar, yeast, and sea salt in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, olive oil, and eggs.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until a dough forms.
- Continue mixing the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. The dough will be stickier and more delicate than regular wheat dough.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until larger in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once the dough has risen, gently deflate it. Divide it into 6 equal portions. Wet your hands with water or oil to make handling the dough easier.
- Shape each portion into a ball. Place it onto the prepared baking sheet. Use wet fingers to smooth the tops of the dough balls.
- Optionally, brush the tops of the dough balls with melted butter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Let the dough balls rise again for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, until they turn golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Finally, remove the buns from the oven. Let them cool on a wire rack.
Notes
- Be sure to use gluten free flour that contains xantham gum. I love King Arthur Flour and Bob's Red Mill for this recipe.
- The dough will be sticky and more fragile than regular dough. This is normal for gluten free bread dough.
- Your dough may not double in size. This is also normal for gluten free breads.
- Brush the dough balls with melted butter or oil before baking. This makes the buns golden brown on top and moist inside.
- Store buns in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Freeze individual buns for up to 1 month.
