Gluten-Free Hawaiian Sweet Bread Recipe

Ingredients
  • 3 cups GF bread flour (recipe below)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 teaspoons yeast
  • 1 large room temperature egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup + 1 tablespoon pineapple juice
  • egg wash – 1 large room temp egg + 1 tablespoon water, beaten

Gluten-Free Bread Flour

  • 1/4 cup white rice flour (super fine)
  • 1/4 cup brown rice flour (super fine)
  • 2 1/3 tablespoons tapioca starch
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons potato flour
  • 2 1/3 tablespoons potato starch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons powdered pectin
  • 2 teaspoons xanthin gum
Directions
  1. In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour, sugar and yeast. Combine thoroughly using a hand held whisk.
  2. Add the salt and whisk again.
  3. Add butter, egg, vanilla, and pineapple juice. Mix on low speed with the dough hook until combined.
  4. Increase mixer speed to medium and knead for 5 minutes. Dough will be sticky but stretchy. Scrape down sides of bowl with oil-sprayed rubber spatula.
  5. Place the dough into a large bowl, lightly oiled and covered with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to 5 days.
On Baking Day

  1. Grease an 8″ round baking pan and set aside.
  2. Place the refrigerated dough onto a lightly floured surface.
  3. Knead it until smooth. You can use an oiled spatula to scrape as you go.
  4. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces, shape the first piece into a ball, and place it in the pan. Repeat with the remaining pieces.
  5. Cover the pan with oiled plastic wrap and place in a warm location to rise for 30 minutes.
  6. Uncover the pan and brush rolls with egg wash. Let them finish rising uncovered, for about 20 minutes or until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 350.
  7. Place the uncovered pan on the lower rack of preheated oven and bake until lightly brown, about 20 minutes.
  8. Let rolls cool briefly in pan before serving.
