Gluten is a protein found in some grains, such as wheat, barley, and rye, among others, that gives doughs like bread their sponginess and elasticity. However, people with celiac disease, a digestive and immune disorder triggered by consuming gluten, must follow a completely gluten-free diet. 

Therefore, these gluten-free rolls, as well as our gluten free sliced bread, are excellent alternatives to traditional bread, suitable for people with celiac disease.

Today, thanks to the popularization of certain ingredients that were not so accessible a few years ago, we can make and enjoy delicious, fluffy and flavorful gluten-free rolls at home that have little to envy from their gluten-containing alternatives.

Among the ingredients needed to make gluten-free bread at home are gluten-free flours such as cornstarch, rice flour, and buckwheat flour, which are the ones we'll use in this recipe. For this recipe, we recommend choosing flours with the Crossed Grain trademark, which certifies their gluten-free status.

We'll also use psyllium husk, which acts as a binder in the dough, replacing the gluten. Thanks to the psyllium, we'll get soft and moist gluten-free rolls that don't crumble or fall apart. These ingredients are now very accessible and can be found in health food stores and many large supermarkets, in the diet or nutritional supplement section.

How to make homemade gluten-free rolls

We weighed out 350g of cornstarch, 100g of rice flour (which can be white or wholegrain), 50g of buckwheat flour, 15g of psyllium husk, 10g of salt, and 3g of dried baker's yeast. We mixed these ingredients with a whisk.

Add the mixture of dry ingredients prepared in the first step to the bowl with the liquid ingredients. Mix until you have a smooth batter. There's no need to knead this type of dough since there's no gluten to develop.

We cover the bowl and let the mixture ferment for about 2 hours, until we see that the dough has risen as shown in the photograph.

We transfer the dough to the work surface dusted with cornstarch and knead it lightly to remove the air from the dough.

We divided the dough into 4 equal portions. We shaped each roll into a small loaf, as shown in the following image. We tapered the ends of each loaf to give them a traditional bread appearance.

We placed the rolls on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

We brush the rolls with a little water and, optionally, sprinkle them with sunflower or pumpkin seeds to taste. We let the rolls rise a second time for at least another hour, covered with a cotton cloth, until they have risen slightly.

After the second rise, bake the gluten-free rolls for 20-25 minutes at 210°C (410°F) with the oven set to conventional bake (top and bottom heat), in the lower third of the oven. For a more golden brown, turn on the convection setting for the last 10 minutes. Alternatively, if you prefer softer rolls, bake them for 30-35 minutes at 190°C (375°F). Once baked, let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
