How to Make Gluten-Free Dough
- 1). In one bowl combine the 3 tsp. of gluten-free egg replacer with 1/4 cup water.
- 2). To the egg replacer, add 1 1/2 tbsp. of vegetable oil, 3/4 tsp. vinegar, and the remaining 1 1/2 cups room temperature water. Mix thoroughly.
- 3). In a second bowl, stir in the package of active dry yeast, 1 1/2 tbsp. granulated white sugar, 3/4 tsp. salt, 2 1/2 tsp. Xanthan gum, 3/4 cup garbanzo bean flour, 1 1/4 cup rice flour and 5 tbsp. potato starch until completely combined.
- 4). While stirring, pour the wet ingredients into the dry. Stir for five minutes, use a dough hook on a mixer to mix for five minutes on low speed, or process for one minute in a food processor. The goal is to incorporate more air into the dough to make the finished product lighter in texture, whether you will make bread, rolls or buns.
- 5). Let the dough rest and rise, covered for one hour in a warm place.
- 6). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F, and line the baking sheet, muffin tins or loaf pan with parchment paper.
- 7). Shape the dough into the desired shape. If you are making rolls, place them in the wells of the muffin tin. To make hamburger buns or hot dog buns, shape into 3-inch rounds or 5-inch long sticks and place on a baking sheet.
- 8). Bake a loaf of bread for 30 minutes at 400 degrees F before removing from the pan and completing the baking on the baking sheet for the last 25 minutes. For rolls, bake for seven minutes, then remove from the muffin tins to the baking pan and finish baking for another seven to 10 minutes. For hamburger buns and hot dog rolls, bake for a total time of 20 to 30 minutes. All finished products should be browned and sound hollow if tapped on the bottom.
