Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
  • ½ cup milk heated to 100-110º
  • 55 grams white rice flour about 1/3 cup
  • 50 grams brown rice flour about 1/3 cup
  • 65 grams arrowroot powder/flour/starch about ½ cup
  • 30 grams tapioca flour about ¼ cup
  • 16 grams sorghum flour about 2 tablespoons
  • 1 ½ teaspoons 5 g xanthan gum
  • 1 teaspoon 4 g baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon 3 g fine sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil see notes
  • 3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter divided
  • Maldon Sea Salt for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan with 1 tablespoon butter.
  • Add the yeast and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer. Slowly pour in the milk, making sure the yeast is moistened. Let sit for at least 15 minutes to "bloom" as you prepare the other ingredients.
  • Add the white rice flour, brown rice flour, arrowroot, tapioca flour, sorghum flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt to medium bowl. Whisk well to combine then whisk in the chopped rosemary.
  • When the yeast has bloomed (is super foamy), add the honey, egg, and avocado oil. Use the paddle attachment to mix on medium low speed until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and mix on low until combined. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl. Then mix on medium (6 on my KitchenAid Stand Mixer) for 1 minute.
  • Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl and form into a ball (dough should easily do this) and turn the dough ball out onto a well-floured surface.
  • Sprinkle the top of the dough with additional gluten free flour, flatten it into a rectangle, and use a knife to cut the dough into 8 equal pieces.
  • Use well-floured hands to roll each piece of dough into a ball (best results if you squish/flatten the dough in your hands first and then roll into a ball). Place the dough ball in the prepared baking pan and repeat with the remaining dough balls. Dust your hands with gluten-free flour as needed to keep them from getting sticky.
  • Place the dough to rise in a warm spot (I like mine to rise on top of my preheated oven) and cover loosely with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Let the rolls rise for 1 hour.
  • After rising, brush the tops of the rolls with 1 tablespoon of melted butter before baking. Then bake for 20-24 minutes (depending on your oven).
  • After baking, brush with 1 more tablespoon of melted butter and sprinkle the tops with flaky sea salt and more chopped rosemary. Then remove from the pan and serve hot or warm.
  • Store leftover rolls in an air-tight container up to two days or wrap them in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag to freeze.

Notes

Canola oil, vegetable oil, or olive oil can be used in place of the avocado oil.
For dairy-free rolls, use unsweetened coconut milk beverage in place of the milk. Brush the pan with oil instead of using butter and brush the rolls with vegan butter or a small amount of oil instead of regular butter (optional).
