Soft, golden dinner rolls that pull apart beautifully are one of those comfort foods that can feel out of reach when you're navigating gluten-free baking — but this recipe genuinely delivers. The blend of white rice flour, tapioca starch, and potato starch creates a tender, pillowy crumb, while psyllium husk powder does the structural work that gluten would normally handle. Apple cider vinegar and a touch of baking powder round out the leavening so every roll rises with a satisfying puff. Because every ingredient here is a whole, recognizable pantry staple, there's no need to stress over sweetened commercial mixes or processed shortcuts that often sneak in unwanted additives. The dough behaves more like a thick batter than a traditional bread dough, so don't panic when it looks sticky — that's exactly right, and a greased scoop makes portioning effortless. A brush of melted butter straight out of the oven gives the tops a gorgeous sheen and a rich, slightly salty finish that makes it very hard to eat just one. These are the kind of rolls that disappear fast at the dinner table, and nobody will miss the wheat.

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.
