Ideal for those with dietary restrictions who still want fresh, homemade bread rolls.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum (if not included in flour blend)
  • 2 teaspoons sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm dairy-free milk (about 110°F)
  • ¼ cup olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Activate yeast: In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of warm dairy-free milk with 2 teaspoons of sugar and 2 ¼ teaspoons of active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 3 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum if your flour blend doesn’t already contain it. This ensures an even distribution of ingredients.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the activated yeast mixture with ¼ cup of olive oil (or melted coconut oil) and 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Stir well to combine all liquids.
  4. Form dough: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft, sticky dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, add a little more dairy-free milk, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve the right consistency.
  5. Shape rolls: Using wet hands to prevent sticking, divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Place the shaped rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring space between each roll to allow for rising.
  6. Let rolls rise: Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, until they have doubled in size.
  7. Preheat oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is ready for baking.
  8. Bake rolls: Once risen, optionally brush the tops of the rolls with a little olive oil or dairy-free butter for a glossy finish. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
  9. Cool and serve: Remove from oven and let the rolls cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your fresh, dairy-free, gluten-free dinner rolls warm.

Notes

  • If your gluten-free flour blend already contains xanthan gum, you can omit the added xanthan gum to avoid excess binding.
  • Adjust the milk quantity slightly as needed; gluten-free flours can vary in absorption.
  • Use warm (not hot) dairy-free milk to activate yeast properly without killing it.
  • If desired, substitute olive oil with melted coconut oil for a subtle coconut flavor.
  • For added flavor, sprinkle a little sea salt or herbs on top before baking.
  • Rolls are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days or frozen for longer storage.
