Description
Sticky date buns are just as delicious made gluten free.
Method
Step 1 of 6
Mix the flour, caster sugar, salt, egg, 60g of butter, xanthan gum, oil, yeast and warm milk in the bowl of a stand mixer until combined. Attach the dough hook and knead for 5 minutes.
Step 2 of 6
Transfer to a clean bowl and cover with a damp tea towel. Leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour, until doubled in size. Soak the dates in boiling water for 20 minutes until soft. Drain and chop.
Step 3 of 6
Knock back the dough, lightly knead and roll out into a large rectangle. Spread the dough with the rest of the butter, sprinkle over the brown sugar and scatter the chopped dates.
Step 4 of 6
Roll up each rectangle into a long log, sealing the ends. Slice into 8 thick discs.
Step 5 of 6
Line a baking tin with parchment paper and brush with a little melted butter. Add the dough discs to each tin, leaving space between. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rise for 30 minutes.
Step 6 of 6
Pre-heat the oven to 160°C, brush the buns with a little milk and bake for 25 minutes until golden.
