Get Ready to Cook
What to Expect
- Time: About 1 hour (including rising time)
- Difficulty: Beginner-friendly with stand mixer
Before You Begin
Have all ingredients at room temperature except water, which should be slightly warmer (about 110°F). Prepare baking sheets with parchment or grease a specialty bun pan if using.
Ingredients You’ll Need
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 3 cups | gluten free flour (I used gfJules, see notes) |
| 1 Tablespoon | gluten free yeast |
| 1 Tablespoon | sugar |
| 1 teaspoon | salt |
| ⅓ cup | instant powdered milk (omit if dairy free) |
| ¼ cup | oil (I used avocado) |
| 1 | egg (room temp) |
| 1 ¼ cups | water (just warmer than room temp) |
Step-by-Step Guide
- Measure gluten free flour by stirring, scooping into measuring cup, and leveling off.
- Combine all ingredients in stand mixer bowl (hand mixer works too).
- Mix with paddle attachment on low until combined, then medium-low for 1 full minute.
- Lightly oil work surface and turn dough out.
- Roll dough to coat with oil, then divide into 6 equal pieces.
- Shape each piece into hot dog bun shape.
- Place shaped dough in hot dog bun pan or 2″ apart on parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place for 20-30 minutes until doubled.
- Optional: Brush with melted butter for browning.
- Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes until cooked through (note limited browning).
- Cool completely before serving for best texture.
Pointers for Perfection & How to Store
Pro tip: For extra-soft Gluten Free Hoagie Rolls, place cooled buns in a plastic bag with a slice of apple overnight. The natural moisture softens them beautifully!
Storage: Keep leftovers in sealed plastic bag on counter 2 days. Freeze for longer storage. Microwave frozen buns 15-20 seconds to refresh.

Your Burning Questions Answered!
1. Can I make dairy-free Gluten Free Hoagie Rolls?
Yes! Omit powdered milk and use your favorite non-dairy milk alternative if needed.
2. Why don’t my Gluten Free Hoagie Rolls brown much?
Gluten-free breads often lack the Maillard reaction that creates browning. A light butter wash helps, but don’t expect deep golden color.
3. Can I shape these into traditional hoagie rolls instead of hot dog buns?
Absolutely! Simply shape into longer 6″ rolls instead of bun shapes for authentic Gluten Free Hoagie Rolls.

Why are the directions in the recipe box completely different from those in the “Step-by-Step guide” above? (in one case it’s apparently a one-rise dough, in the other two-rises?) It would also be helpful to indicate what type of GF all-purpose flour worked…. I’ve already have had one fail, am hoping to find a GF recipe that works. Thank you in advance.
