Recipe by gluten-free chef Tibor Átol
INGREDIENTS
- UniMix Universal Flour Mix – 220 g
- Tapioca starch – 30 g
- Egg size L (65-70 g) – 1 pc and 1 pc for glazing
- Liquid – 250 ml (130 ml water and 120 ml milk)
- Yeast – 3 g
- Sugar – 15 g
- Salt – 2 pinches
- Oil – 8 g and to coat the pan
- Garnish: sesame seeds, linseeds, poppy seeds, etc.
- Heat-resistant baking tin
PREPARATION
- Preheat the oven to 45-50°C from bottom to top. Pour 1-1.5 dl of water into a heatproof bowl and place in a corner of the oven.
- Mix the flour and starch together. Add the other dry ingredients, then the oil and eggs.
- Start mixing with the mixer on low speed, adding the room temperature liquid in a continuous thin stream.
- Mix on medium speed for at least 4-5 minutes until the dough is lump-free.
- Meanwhile, lightly grease the tins. I used a 12cm diameter heatproof ceramic bowl.
- Using a scale, divide the dough evenly between the 4 tins (145 – 147 grams). Use a greased spoon to smooth the surface evenly. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with seeds.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 50 degrees for 15 minutes, then increase the heat to 170 degrees Bottom-Top.
- When it reaches this temperature, bake for 35 minutes. The temperature is measured with an analogue oven thermometer inserted into the oven.
- Place the baked buns on a wire rack with the pan to cool. Using a NON-sharp knife, gently pry the buns out of the tin by reaching underneath.
- Do not cut until the buns are completely cool.
- Chef’s tip 1: If you put greaseproof paper in the ceramic baking dish, the bun will be easier to remove, but the bottom will be slightly dented.
- Chef’s tip 2: The size of the egg is very important; if you use a smaller egg, the bun will be bigger, but it will have large holes in the structure.
- Cook’s tip 3: Make sure that the water dish in the oven is not under the hamburger baking tray, as this will prevent the bottom from being cooked through.
- STORAGE: No need to refrigerate or freeze! Covered with a tea towel and left on the counter, it will keep its consistency for 3-5 days without heating or microwaving.
