• The dough will be quite wet.
• Wet hands to handle dough.
• (Re-wet hands as needed.) Take about 1/4 cup of dough and shape into a ball.
• Drop into greased baking tin.
• (I use muffin or popover tins.).

GLUTEN-FREE SOFT DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine water and yeast in the bowl of stand mixer. Stir to combine. Allow to stand for five minutes.
• While the yeast dissolves, combine the gluten-free flour, granulated sugar, xanthan gum, and salt in a small bowl. Whisk.
• Add the flour mixture to the yeast mixture. Add the milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix on medium speed until smooth, about three minutes. The dough will be very thick.
• Scoop dough, about 1/3 cup each, onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Smooth the top of each roll with your fingers. Dip your fingers in cool water before smoothing. Cover pan with greased plastic wrap. Allow rolls to rise until double in size.
• When rolls have almost doubled in size, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove plastic wrap from pan. Bake rolls until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven. Brush rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with Kosher salt, if desired. (see note) Allow rolls to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
• Rolls are best enjoyed the day they are made. Store leftover rolls wrapped on the counter or place cooled rolls in a freezer bag and freeze for up to two months. Thaw rolls at room temperature overnight.

GLUTEN-FREE CRESCENT ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat milk in a microwave-safe bowl until warm, about 30 seconds. Mix in 1/4 cup butter, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons honey, and salt. Cool until lukewarm, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Combine warm water and yeast in a small bowl. Let stand until dissolved and creamy, about 5 minutes.
• Combine milk and yeast mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add half the beaten egg. Beat in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough pulls together. Switch to the dough hook attachment and knead lightly until dough is wet and sticky but forms into a ball, about 5 minutes.
• Grease a large bowl with 1 teaspoon softened butter. Use greased or wet hands to transfer dough into the bowl, turning to coat it with butter. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Dust a work surface with potato starch. Deflate dough and turn it out onto the work surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and form into rounds. Place a piece of parchment paper over one of the rounds and roll into a rectangle about 1/8-inch thick with a rolling pin; cut into wedges. Brush each wedge with a little softened butter. Repeat with remaining dough rounds.
• Roll each wedge up from the base towards the point. Brush a little bit of remaining beaten egg on the seam to seal. Bend each roll into a crescent shape.
• Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Arrange crescents sealed-side down on the sheets. Brush tops with remaining beaten egg.
• Transfer baking sheets to the cold oven. Heat oven to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
• Bake crescents until golden brown, about 25 minutes.

HOMEMADE GLUTEN-FREE CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine sugar and yeast for dough in a small bowl. Mix 1 3/4 cups flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt together in a second bowl.
• Place milk and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high, stirring every 15 seconds, until 110 to 115 degrees F (43 to 46 degrees C), about 45 seconds. Whisk into the yeast mixture and set aside to proof, about 5 minutes.
• Combine proofed yeast with olive oil, egg, and vanilla extract in a large bowl; mix for a moment and then slowly add in the flour mixture. Mix with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until dough thickens and loses some of its stickiness, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Cover a work surface with a sheet of good quality plastic wrap and a light layer of flour. Place dough in the center and cover with a little more flour and another sheet of plastic wrap. Roll out to a 10x13-inch rectangle; remove top layer of plastic wrap.
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon for filling in a small bowl. Spread melted butter over the entire dough rectangle and sprinkle brown sugar mixture evenly over top.
• Start at a long edge and roll the dough, using the plastic wrap to help lift and roll as you go. Lightly sprinkle dough with more flour and cut into 10 pieces with a sharp knife. Place rolls in a greased baking pan, cover with plastic wrap, and place in a warm spot to rise for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 22 to 27 minutes.
• While rolls are baking, beat butter and cream cheese for frosting in a mixing bowl until smooth. Add powdered sugar; mix until smooth. Mix in lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt.
• Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and immediately drizzle frosting over top.
