Gluten free can be easy and delicious! If you need an easy gluten free roll recipe these Gluten Free Rolls without yeast are easy to make because you don’t have to let them rise!
Gluten free baking can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. It can be easy and delicious! These Gluten free dinner rolls without yeast are an example of just that.
They don’t require a rise time so they are quick to make and they taste great.
This gluten free roll recipe is a cross between a roll and a biscuit. They are fluffier than a biscuit, but a little more dense than a normal dinner roll.
Yeast is not an ingredient that everyone keeps on hand. It is also something that has been hard to find during the current events of spring 2020.
Almost everyone though keeps baking powder and baking soda on hand. Those are the ingredients in this recipe that makes it rise, so no yeast is needed.
If you want an easy roll to go along with your breakfast, lunch, or dinner these are perfect. They are so good with honey on them!
Can I use a gluten free flour blend in this recipe?
Yes, you can. In fact the recipe calls for a gluten free flour blend.
Many of my recipes call for individual gluten free flours, but one of the most common question I get is about using blends in my recipe instead of the individual flours.
Most of the time I think that the end results are better when using individual flours. But I also know that a lot of people don’t keep the individual flours on hand. I am working hard on developing more recipes that use a blend instead of just individual flours.
I use Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 gluten free flour blend in this recipe. It is my favorite gluten free flour blend. I have not tried it with other blends, so I don’t know how they work. If you try another gluten free flour blend in this recipe I would love to know how it works.
Can I make gluten free rolls without yeast without the dairy?
No, they don’t work the same. Or at least the versions that I have tried have not worked. I am still trying to come up with a dairy free version. If I find a version that works I will share it. Until then I think this is one of those recipes that really does need the dairy.
Now for the recipe!

Looks good. If you were going to use individual flours, what would you use and how much xanthum gum would you add? Thanks

Sorry that it took so long for me to get back to you. I have not experimented much with this recipe and individual flours. But not you have me thinking that I need to experiment more with the recipe using them. This bread recipe that I make and love uses individual flours, but I am not sure the ratios would work the same in this no yeast roll recipe. https://www.lynnskitchenadventures.com/gluten-free-sandwich-bread/ If you try it with individual flours I would love to hear how it works.

I wanted to try this recipe and you say to use a gluten free flour blend. Can you use gluten free all purpose flour? The ingredients are: Rice flour, Tapioca starch, potato
starch, Xanthan gum, salt. Thanks
lynnsk5 says
If you have a gluten free all purpose blend that you love it will probably work in this recipe, but I have not tested it with all brands.
