How To Make Gluten Free Crescent Rolls
These gluten free crescent rolls still come out soft and light. The resulting bread is great on its own or as a side dish too.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup butter, softened
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tsp honey
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ¼ cup warm water, (110 degrees F)
- ¼ oz active dry yeast, (½ package)
- 1 egg, beaten, divided
- 2 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp butter, softened, divided
- 1 tbsp potato starch, or as needed
Instructions
-
Heat milk in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds, until warm. Mix in ¼ cup of butter, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons of honey, and salt. Cool until lukewarm.
- Combine warm water and yeast in a small bowl. Let stand until dissolved and creamy, about 5 minutes.
-
Combine milk and yeast mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add half the beaten egg. Beat in flour, ½ cup at a time, until dough pulls together.
-
Switch to the dough hook attachment and knead lightly until dough is wet and sticky but forms into a ball.
-
Grease a large bowl with 1 teaspoon of softened butter. Use greased or wet hands to transfer dough into the bowl, turning to coat it with butter. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, until doubled in volume.
-
Dust a work surface with potato starch. Deflate dough and turn it out onto the work surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and form into rounds. Place a piece of parchment paper over one of the rounds and roll into a rectangle about ⅕-inch thick with a rolling pin; cut into wedges.
-
Brush each wedge with a little softened butter. Repeat with remaining dough rounds.
- Roll each wedge up from the base towards the point. Brush a little bit of remaining beaten egg on the seam to seal. Bend each roll into a crescent shape.
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Arrange crescents sealed-side down on the sheets. Brush tops with remaining beaten egg.
-
Transfer baking sheets to the cold oven. Heat oven to 365 degrees F.
-
Bake crescents for about 25 minutes until golden brown.
-
Serve warm and enjoy!
