These delicious gluten free buns are incrediblely easy to make. Within less than two hours you have 15 delicious buns ready to eat. For this recipe I have used psyllium husks, popped quinoa and dried dates, figs and apples.
The buns are intended to be eaten as they are and are ideal for on-the-go like the children’s lunch box. They however also taste wonderful with butter, jam or chocolate.
What to add
15 g of organic yeast
5dl lukewarm water
20 g of psyllium husks
20 g of popped quinoa
150 g of quinoa flower
200 g of oat flour
50 g of dried fruits
1 teaspoon of salt
What to do
- Mix water and yeast
- Add psyllium husks and quinoa flour. Whip to an even and sticky paste. Leave for 5 minutes
- Add the remaining ingredients but hold back a bit of the flour. Knead until the dough is even.
- The dough is still sticky but adding water onto your hands you allow you to shape 15-16 buns
- Let the buns rise for 45-60 minutes
- Bake for 18-20 minutes at 200ºC in a preheated hot air oven
The buns stay fresh and soft for a few days but may also be keep in the freezer if needed.
There’s no allergy towards gluten in our family. My reason for experimenting with a recipe for gluten free buns originates from my curiosity and my belief that it is better to eat a wide variety of foods to avoid later developing allergies. In many aspects of life I believe more focus on preventing than curing no matter if we are taking illness, bullying or car accidents would be beneficial and effective.

For this recipe I went all in on products from Danish based Urtekram. Everything except from the water, yeast and psyllium husks are Urtekram products which are always organic. I’m a big fan of their products.
The butter on the photo is Lurpak. Probably the best butter in the world ♡
Last but not least I have to mention our favorite chocolate slices (pålægschokolade in Danish). Wonder what to call this great product as I believe it does not exist outside Denmark. Hope you get what I mean. It is thin slices of chocolate to put onto bread like a slice of cheese. We have fallen in love with the 72 percent dark chocolate from änglamark which is organic and fairtrade.
