Servings: 12 buns
Calories: 169kcal
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup water warmed to 110F - can use water from cooking potatoes
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast 1 packet
- 175 grams plain mashed potatoes about 1 cup
- 50 grams granulated sugar about 1/4 cup
- 1 egg
- 1 cup dairy free sour cream
- 4 Tablespoons vegan butter melted and cooled slightly
- 390 grams gluten free flour blend about 3 cups
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the water and yeast. Set aside to proof for 5 minutes.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine mashed potatoes, sugar, and egg. Mix on low for 1 minute, until incorporated.
- Add the sour cream, melted butter, and yeast mixture to the potato mixture. Mix for 30 seconds on medium speed, until just incorporated.
- Mix the gluten-free flour blend, xanthan gum, and salt in a medium bowl until evenly mixed.
- Add the flour mixture to the potato mixture. Mix on medium speed for 3 minutes.
- While the stand mixer is combining the flour mixture with the potato mixture, prepare a 9″ x 13″ baking dish by spraying it generously with cooking spray.
- Using a large spoon or 1/4-cup measuring cup, portion the batter into buns. Dust your hands with a little gluten-free flour. Roll the batter portions into balls with your hands. Arrange the batter balls into 4 rows of 3 balls each in the baking dish. Make sure they’re evenly spaced in the pan to give them room to rise.
- Cover the rolls with a towel. Let them rise in a warm place for 50-65 minutes, until the rolls have risen by 50%. Toward the end of the rise time, preheat the oven to 375 F.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 – 30 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a roll reads 205-210 degrees Fahrenheit (96 to 104 degrees Celsius).
- Let the rolls cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then use the turner to transfer them to a cooling rack and let them cool until they are cool enough to handle without burning your fingers. This lets the buns’ interior finish setting. Serve warm.
