Posted on by

No Easter without bun(nie)s. But these easy-to-make little rolls are also great for other occasions (‘Sunday Buns’, Recipe# 65)

Ingredients for ‘Sunday Brunch 25: Buns’

  • 11 tablespoons coconut yogurt
  • 8 tablespoons oat yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 3 tablespoons date sweet (granulated sugar made from date juice)
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 knife tip vanilla powder (pure ground vanilla, no sugar added)
  • 350 g gluten-free flour mix for buns, cakes and pancakes (ours is made from whole grain millet flour with a little corn and rice flour added plus guacer flour aka guar gum)
  • 7 tablespoons amaranth whole grain flour
  • 1 teaspoon guacer flour (guar gum)
  • 6 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 pinch of salt

Baking Instructions for ‘Sunday Brunch 25: Buns’

  1. In a bowl (must hold about 1 ½ liters), mix the date sweetener with the water to a paste. Then add the coconut yogurt, oat yogurt, vanilla powder and salt. Stir well and set aside in the refrigerator.
  2. Place the gluten-free flour mix in a large mixing bowl (2 ½ liters or more). Add the amaranth flour and mix together. The gluten-free flour may be a little dusty, so just use a fork to toss both flours together until they are evenly mixed.
  3. Make two holes in the pile of flours and put the baking powder in one and the guacer flour (aka guar gum) in the other. Mix again.
  4. Using a hand mixer, stir everything together, gradually adding the yogurt mixture to the flours. Add the canola oil last. When everything is combined, knead well by hand.
  5. Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection only).
  6. Shape the dough into egg-shaped patties, indent them lengthwise with a spoon and place them on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper (oil the paper if necessary).
  7. Bake for 15 minutes on one side, then flip and bake for 15 minutes on the other side.
