Gluten-Free Vegan Hamburger Buns

🇺🇸 United States

Servings: 8 buns Prep: 50 minutes Cook: 25 minutes Total: 75 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups dairy-free milk, warmed to 110°F
  • 3 Tbsp cane sugar
  • 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 Tbsp psyllium husk powder
  • 1 ½ cups brown rice flour
  • 2/3 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup potato starch
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 6 Tbsp melted vegan butter
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • Sesame seeds, for topping (optional)

Steps

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together warm dairy-free milk, cane sugar, and yeast. Let sit 10-20 minutes until frothy.
  3. Whisk in psyllium husk powder and let gel for 10 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together brown rice flour, almond flour, potato starch, and sea salt.
  5. Add the yeast mixture, melted vegan butter, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined, about 3 minutes; dough will be sticky.
  6. Divide dough into 8 equal pieces. With wet hands, shape each into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if using, cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes until doubled. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C).
  8. Bake for 25-28 minutes until lightly golden.
  9. Cool 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

Best eaten the day of baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 2 days, or freeze sliced buns up to 1 month. To reheat from frozen, briefly run under water then toast until warm.
