White Bread Rolls – gluten free, dairy free & yeast free

This week I have been on a serious mission on behalf of a friend of mine. A few days back we had a fire drill at work and whilst standing out in the car park, I was told this friend had recently discovered she needed to cut both dairy and yeast out of her diet (which was already gluten free). This had (unsurprisingly) made eating an increasing challenge and in particular she was really struggling to find any edible bread or suitable alternative. Could I help?

Well……. never one to avoid a challenge, I was absolutely up for it. My response was an instant ‘leave it with me………..’

Really? Had I gone totally bonkers? Can you really, actually, possibly, ever produce decent gluten free, dairy free, yeast free bread? It turns out you can! Yes……….. really!!!! Not only am I shocked that it can be done, but I am amazed at the quality of the results.

I decided to start small and go for rolls rather than a loaf in the first instance as I thought these would potentially rise better, and would also be easier to store in the freezer and take out as needed (my experience of gluten-free bread being that its shelf life can be very short).

It was also important to use ingredients that were easy to source as I am aware that my larder can be a little bit baffling and intimidating to the uninitiated GF baker! I did a bit of internet research into ‘yeast-free bread’, found a really helpful magazine site (which no longer exists) and started there. They had a selection of bread (and other) recipes for a whole variety of allergies and intolerances, which gave me a head-start and a set of base recipes on which to build. I did some further research on using baking powder and bicarb in place of yeast to understand the principles of the required replacements and set to work……………

A couple of attempts later, some tweaking of a ‘Living Without’ dinner roll recipe (in particular quantity and type of flour, quantity of xanthan gum and balancing/changing some other ingredients) and I had a white roll that was frankly, quite unexpected and delicious.

These rolls are probably the lightest, fluffiest and softest that I have had since we went gluten free. Ok, so you don’t get the lovely yeasty smell when they are baking, but what they lack in aroma, they more than make up for in ‘breadiness’. They are even amazing straight out of the oven, warm and smothered in butter (unusual for a gluten-free bread which is mostly left to cool before you risk eating it). Although they lose some of their moistness, they are still amazingly soft and fresh a couple of days later………. I know…….. I can’t believe it either!

And the taste test? My daughter wolfed down three in a row, complained that I had made them for someone else and made me promise that I would bake them for her next time as they were ‘sooooo good’………

And back at work? I think I have a happy friend! The excitement of a yeast/dairy/gluten free bread which is not like a rock and which tastes great has done the job. I have sent her off with a little bread goodie bag and a new recipe.

I am putting these little rolls forward as my second entry for Treat Petite this month. Challenged by Kat at The Baking Explorer and Stuart at Cakeyboi to produce something to celebrate World Baking Day (apparently on the 18th May) that has been made for family and friends, these need to be shared. I know they don’t strictly fit the criteria (not being sweet) but the only reason they are here is because I wanted to help a friend with her bready dilemma……. I am hoping that ‘excuse’ for sneaking them in is good enough!

White Bread Rolls – gluten free, dairy free, yeast free (makes 12 to 15 rolls)

Ingredients

200g plain gluten free flour blend (I used mix A from this post)
50g tapioca flour
1½ teaspoons GF baking powder
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
1¼ teaspoons xanthan gum
2 large eggs – room temperature
3 tablespoons almond milk (or rice or soya milk)
250 ml dairy free yoghurt (soya yoghurt)
60 ml sunflower oil
1 teaspoon cider or white wine vinegar
½ teaspoon honey

Sesame seeds to sprinkle on top

Method

  1. You will need a non-stick 12 hole muffin pan (and maybe a spare tin for any remaining batter), which should not require any greasing, unless it has lost its non-stickness.
  2. Pre-heat the oven to 180 C/ 350 F/Gas 4.
  3. Weigh and mix together all the dry ingredients, making sure they are fully broken down and well-combined. Set aside.
  4. Measure all the wet ingredients into a large mixing bowl and whisk together until completely amalgamated and airy.
  5. Add the dry ingredients and fold into the wet mixture until you have a sticky thick batter. Do not over mix.
  6. Spoon into the muffin tin holes filling each to about two-thirds. Smooth the top of each with the back of a teaspoon. If you have any mixture left and no remaining space in the tin, place a piece of baking paper on a baking tray and make a small pile with the remaining mixture (it will still rise into a bread roll, but will not have a uniform shape).
  7. Bake straight away for 20 to 25 minutes, until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and use a silicone spatula to slide and release each muffin if there is any sticking.
  9. Place on a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze as soon as possible.

Who needs a perfect Carrot 🥕 Cake? Swipe to see Who needs a perfect Carrot 🥕 Cake? Swipe to see just how amazing it looks inside 😆. It’s super-moist gluten free deliciousness and would be brilliant for Mother’s Day or Easter. What do you reckon? Special enough for your Mum?
This recipe was literally developed originally for one of my followers who needed it for a special celebration. The feedback was super-good and I have to agree. It’s the best gluten free carrot cake I’ve ever had... and it’s certainly up there with the best of the gluten versions too. So if you love carrot cake... this one’s for you 😘.
You know me... If it’s not as good as I can possibly get, it doesn’t leave my kitchen xx
Grab the recipe from the blog 🥕💜🎁

Are Hot Cross Buns without fruit allowed? I think Are Hot Cross Buns without fruit allowed?
I think the answer may just be YES! Even when you’re gluten free 😆. And for all those who asked whether my Incredible Hot Cross Bun recipe could be made with Chocolate Chips instead of fruit? The evidence is undeniable. 
LOOK at these babies! Big... fat... glorious... chocolate chip Hot Cross Buns 😊😘😋👏😁
Yes or no???

Have you ever tried a Goose Egg? 🥚 They are tot Have you ever tried a Goose Egg? 🥚
They are totally yummy with monster yolks that are super-rich and creamy. Each egg is equivalent to 3 to 4 hens eggs. And they make the most incredible Goose Egg Scotch Eggs 😍
They have a really short season from about the end of February to June. And the geese have just started laying. 
We’re really lucky to get our eggs from a wonderful free-range supplier and they always let us know when goose eggs are available. You can use them for usual baking too... I totally recommend them for brownies.
I’ve put a recipe for making Goose Egg Scotch Eggs on the blog... If you see any eggs..: grab them while you can 😘

The ULTIMATE gluten free Hot Cross Buns... When wa The ULTIMATE gluten free Hot Cross Buns... When was the last time you had a perfect Hot Cross Bun? Easter all wrapped up in  a delicious fluffy, spiced, doughy ball, stuffed full of juicy fruit. Best buns ever! No one will ever know these babies are gluten free 😁
I am super proud of this recipe. I honestly didn’t think it was possible to create a gluten free bun with such an incredible texture... and I really didn’t think it was possible to create a Hot Cross Bun that would stay fresh enough to eat 48+ hours after baking... No toaster needed. 😊
But I’ve done it. I’ve pulled it out of the bag. Amazing 👏👏👏
Heads up... When I first started on developing this recipe, I truly wanted to make a simple one-bowl job. But that wasn’t possible. Texture and flavour were the absolute priority and this ultimately meant the recipe had to be carefully crafted  to make this happen. If you want the best, you sometimes have to work a little bit harder. 
But no word of a lie... these are SO worth the effort. 
Even better, I’ve worked out the dough can be frozen part way through the process... which means you can split the batch ready to bake up fresh with little effort later ☑️
Who wants the recipe? It’s now written up and on the blog... link in my profile (click lnk.bio)  #hotcrossbuns #easter #glutenfreehotcrossbuns #glutenfreerecipecreator #glutenfreeuk #glutenfreeeaster #glutenfreefoodporn #perfectbuns #singluten #glutenfrei #senzagluten #coeliacsafe #coeliacuk #feedfeed #feedfeedglutenfree #easterbuns #thebakefeed #huffposttaste #glutenfreealchemist #foodblogger #eeeeeats #bakersofinstagram #glutenfreebaking #foodblogfeed #bakersgonnabake #f52grams #instafood #glutenfreeeats #britainsbesthomecooks_ #worldsgreatesthomecooks

Have you ever tried porridge made with Millet Flak Have you ever tried porridge made with Millet Flakes? I really like it. It makes a nice change from oats and is a great alternative for anyone who can’t eat oats too.
It’s got a nice earthy bite and pairs perfectly with fruit and nuts. I always sprinkle a few cacao nibs on my porridge too. It’s funny how we have ‘must haves’ to go with some foods. 
Have you got a favourite porridge topping?  #porridge #glutenfreeporridge #milletporridge #porridgebowl #porridgewithfruits #cookedtoperfection #porridgewithoutoats #glutenfreeuk #breakfastideas #cookblogshare #coeliacsafe #coeliacuk #porridgeporn #forkyeah #tastemademedoit #eeeeats #instafood #foodporn #foodphotography #healthyfood #healthybowl #porridgepassion #foodblogger
