Authentic Foods - Parker House Rolls (Gluten-Free) Recipe (2024)

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Bring all ingredients to room temperature. Grease a 9x9” square baking pan well with butter.
2. Combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in bowl of stand mixer. Add softened butter and mix with paddle attachment to break up butter with dry ingredients.
3. Add all liquids at once and mix starting on low speed and increasing to medium as ingredients begin to combine evenly. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl as necessary. Mix until ingredients are combined and dough is formed. Dough will be very sticky.
4. Place dough on work surface and dust hands with white rice flour to prevent sticking. Knead dough until smooth incorporating as little added flour as possible.
5. Once dough is smooth divide into 12 equal pieces. Round out all rolls then using a well-floured finger make an indent pressing down through middle of dough balls to create a seam along the middle of each dough ball. Press down firmly to leave only a thin layer of dough connecting both sides.
6. Once indent is made on all dough balls brush all along inside with melted and cooled butter. Save any remaining butter to brush on rolls after baking. Pick up rolls and place seam side down in baking pan. Place rolls side by side covering bottom of pan, cover in plastic, and allow to rise until about tripled in size.
7. While dough is proofing preheat oven to 375F.
8. When rolls are ready to bake brush with egg wash before placing in oven. Bake until light golden brown on top, about 18-20 minutes.
9. As soon as rolls are removed from oven brush with remaining melted butter. Allow to cool slightly. Seam that was made during shaping should still be present after baking. Pull rolls apart and enjoy! Try filling the opening of the roll with butter, jam or make a mini sandwich with a roll!
