Turmeric Free Gluten Free Dinner Rolls
Soft, golden dinner rolls that happen to be completely free of gluten — and every single ingredient in this recipe is naturally clear of turmeric, so there's no label-scanning required. The dough comes together from a blend of white rice flour, tapioca starch, and potato starch, with psyllium husk powder doing the heavy lifting that gluten would normally handle. Apple cider vinegar and a touch of baking powder give the rolls a subtle lift, while whole milk, eggs, and melted butter keep the crumb tender and rich. The dough is thick and sticky — more like a stiff batter than anything you'd knead — so don't be alarmed when it doesn't behave like a classic bread dough. After a rise and a short rest, the rolls bake up deep golden brown and sound satisfyingly hollow when you tap the bottom. A brush of melted butter straight out of the oven and a pinch of flaky sea salt on top takes them from good to genuinely hard to stop eating. Pull them apart warm and serve alongside soup, a roast, or honestly anything that deserves a really good roll.
