Hi Cindy, unfortunately we've only made this recipe in the stand mixer. It could likely be made with a heavy duty hand mixer as well.
Can you refrigerate the dough for a couple of days instead of freezing the dough ahead of time?
Hi Terri - you can make the dough a day ahead of time. Prepare the dough and portion into balls on a parchment lined sheet pan. Cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator. Before baking, remove the plastic and cover with a towel. Allow the dough to rise at room temperature until doubled in size (this takes about 1-2 hours) before baking as directed.
Please, oh please, give this recipe with a substitute for xanthan gum, that has been tested for results. I might as well use regular wheat flour if I am going to have xanthan in it (the same goes for a great number of those who need to be gluten free). My heart just sinks when I see a new gf recipe posted, then read that it includes xanthan. It is a case of dashed hopes...
Yes! Rebecca, you can absolutely use our psyllium fiber in this recipe. I tested it and it does work. My family preferred the xanthan gum rolls, but they were both fluffy and delicious. Hopefully that change will work for you. Let us know how you like them.
These rolls are absolutely gorgeous Sarena and oh so fluffy! I'm just discovering how light millet flour makes bread, so I love that you've used it here. These are a must make!
Hi Traci! Thank you! I'm so excited how well these turned out. I'm really loving the millet and brown rice flour mixture these days. Let me know what you think if you try these out.
What can I substitute for the Millet. I realize it is the main flour but I do not eat millet. Can I use 3/4 Brown Rice and 3/4 Almond flour or 1 cup Brown Rice and 1/4 Almond and 1/4 Tapioca?
Hi Nechama, this recipe was specifically created with Millet Flour and Rice Flour to achieve a soft and fluffy texture. If you substitute in other flours for the blend the texture will be different. If it's something you try we'd love to hear your results!
I made these and I love the texture! they stayed nice and fluffy and soft with the egg replacer; however, I didn't care for the flavor... do you think its the millet flour that was the problem for me? or maybe i need to add more honey? I was thinking of maybe using less millet and adding brown rice flour to the recipe. Do you think that would work?
