Gluten-free breads are an enigma. They might not rise, if they rise, they might be dry.. if they are soft and moist, they might not taste good. The taste part though is just about getting used to it.
For eg, I would rather make this chickpea flour cake instead of multiple flour gf rolls. I know chickpea flour, I like the taste and texture and the cake is moist, and generally has better success rate :). For regular dinner rolls, the rolls do much better when you steam it. You can steam these rolls in a steamer, or bake them covered so they get steamed while baking. The bread is best served fresh and warm. To make ahead, you can make the dough and refrigerate. Let it come to room temperature, then shape into rolls and proceed with the recipe. If you make these let me know how you like them. More gluten-free bread options listed below.
