Yummy Grain Free Dinner Rolls

After years of not having bread, I had a special dinner planned and wanted something "bready". I found a recipe at http://www.grainfreeliving.com/ for "white dinner rolls" but the recipe contained a few ingredients that I couldn't use so I played with the recipe and - IT WORKED!! So excited! I have posted my revised recipe and as soon as I get a cinnamon loaf perfected, will post it, too. Super Easy Grain Free Dinner Rolls 1 cup Tapioca flour 1/4 cup Almond flour 1/4 cup Fava/Garbanzo bean flour 1 tsp Cream of Tartar 1/2 tsp Baking Soda 1/2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Xanthan Gum 1/2 tsp Sugar 1 egg white, whipped until fluffy 2 Tbsp Oil 3/4 cup Water Preheat oven to 355*. Line large cooking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Set aside. In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer, beat egg white until fluffy then beat in oil and water. Still using the hand mixer, mix the liquid ingredients with the dry until all are mixed, then continue to whip for approx. 2-3 minutes. Place blobs of mixture on cooking sheet, making sure to leave room for expansion of the dough. Bake for approx. 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool. They look and taste just like white bread! I used mine for sandwiches and they were good (now remember I haven't eaten bread for a very long time...) Enjoy! Experiment, but most of all, HAVE FUN!
