Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large bowl or the stand mixer, combine the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum (if using), sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Mix thoroughly until evenly distributed.
  2. In a separate jug, whisk together the warm milk (or pineapple juice), melted butter, and eggs until thoroughly combined.
  3. Carefully pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry mixture. Start mixing on low speed, gradually increasing to medium for about 3 minutes.
  4. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan and portion out the dough into 12 equal amounts, placing them in the prepared pan.
  5. Cover the pan and allow the rolls to rise in a warm spot for 45-60 minutes until they double in size.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the rolls are rising. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Let the rolls cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before serving.
