Gluten-Free Honey and Flax Yeast Rolls!


There comes a time in every young foodies life when, suddenly, the thought of working with yeast sends a tingle of excitement from the pointy end of their elbow right down to their dough-covered fingertips... When, upon waking in the wee hours of the morning, the first thing they think of is inhaling the hypnotizing aroma of this amazing fungi's magical work: beautifully risen and golden freshly baked GLUTEN-FREE yeast rolls!

Oh oh oooooh! The smell of freshly baked GLUTEN-FREE yeast rolls makes me do crazy things... like practically fall off of my chair dancing while listening to a frilly classic tune by the material girl, like blog at unexpected times, like talk about this alllll day because, my dear foodies, this is a very special day, indeed...


Dare I say it? Have I truly mastered the art of inventing gluten free YEAST roll recipes from scratch, no mixes or outside sources involved?!!!! (Well, maybe I did read this and also fell completely in love with ground flax seed thanks to a Baking Beauties' fantastic bread recipe.)

This life-changing event calls for a celebration! Time to get out your favorite preserves and the tastiest sweet cream butter! Time to make warm, honey-sweetened, mouthwatering and completely gluten free yeast rolls (that, surprisingly, remind me of whole wheat rolls!).

Really, I'm so happy I could roll around in rice flour! Baking gluten-free is NOT easy when it comes to breads, and I've failed many many times. But I finally looked my insecurities in the face early this morning. I said, "Yeast, you're just a microorganism, a little fungi I must learn to love and not fear... and gluten, we can do chewy and delicious without you!". Then it finally happened!

These taste just like whole wheat rolls, but they're ...

These look fantastic, and you know, flax seed is very healthy for you! BOnus, huh? isn't it funny how a celiac can get SO excited about bread? Barely ever happened when I baked regular, but now that I'm GF, it can be a very exciting thing! :)

I just found your blog and I am so thrilled! I made these unbelieveable rolls for dinner tonight, and they were a hit with the whole family!! They were so easy because of your thorough directions and great pictures. Thanks so much! I think I'll bag up a few batches of the dry ingredients to keep in the freezer!! I can't wait to try the cinnamon rolls next!

Thanks, Missy :)! I'm glad you enjoyed them!
