I've made many versions of dinner rolls over the years. They're all slightly different from each other, and you can't really go wrong with any of them. There are soft, buttery dinner rolls and onion & chive dinner rolls and soft, versatile lunch or dinner rolls and delicious sourdough dinner rolls and free-from dinner rolls. This is the latest version of adjustments made. After some travelling around Europe, where they use more buckwheat in their gluten-free baked goods than we tend to in North America, I've been playing around adding more into my baked goods. It adds a bit of a robust flavor to things, and I find that using it in combination with other gluten-free flours is my preferred method. Enjoy!

Buttery Dinner Rolls v2

In a glass measuring cup, mix gently and let rest 5-10 minutes: 

1 3/4 cup warm water (or 1 1/2 cup water, if you are leaving out the GF quick oats)

5 - 6 Tbsp sugar

4 tsp active dry or quick-rise yeast

Mix together in a mixer: 

2 cup brown rice flour

1 1/2 cup tapioca starch

1 cup arrowroot starch (or cornstarch)

1/2 cup buckwheat flour (you can use extra brown rice flour or sorghum flour)

1/2 cup GF quick oats (If you do not want to use these, use 1/4 cup less water)

2 tsp xanthan gum

1 tsp salt

2 tsp baking powder (I don't often use in my bread, but I find this works well in these rolls, just to give them a bit of extra rising power)

Add and beat 5 minutes: 

water/yeast mixture, from above

6 Tbsp butter, softened

4 eggs

2 tsp apple cider vinegar

On a parchment-lined pan, scoop 20 large scoops onto the pan. Cover with an upside down cookie sheet and let rise in a warm location 30 minutes.  

Scooped with a large cookie scoop onto a pan. Ready to top with an upside down pan to rise.

2-3 Tbsp butter, melted

After rising - brushed with butter and ready to bake!

Fresh from the oven!
