Soft, golden dinner rolls that pull apart easily are one of those things that feel almost impossible to replicate without wheat flour — but this recipe genuinely delivers. A blend of white rice flour, tapioca starch, and potato starch creates a tender crumb, while psyllium husk powder does the structural work that gluten normally handles, binding everything together so the rolls hold their shape and stay pillowy inside. The dough comes together more like a thick batter than a traditional bread dough, which can look surprising at first, but that's exactly how it's supposed to work — trust the process and the rise. Whole milk, eggs, and melted butter give these rolls a rich, slightly buttery flavor that makes them feel indulgent straight from the pan. A brush of warm butter right out of the oven and a pinch of flaky sea salt on top takes them from good to genuinely impressive. For anyone navigating citric acid sensitivities, the ingredient list here is refreshingly straightforward — no hidden additives, no preservatives, just pantry staples you can verify yourself. These are the kind of rolls that disappear fast at the dinner table, no matter who's eating them.

Whisk together the white rice flour, tapioca starch, potato starch, instant yeast, psyllium husk powder, sugar, salt, and baking powder in the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer) until evenly combined.
Warm the milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it reaches 110°F (43°C) on an instant-read thermometer — warm to the touch but not hot. Add the warm milk, eggs, 3 tablespoons melted butter, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients.
