SANDWICH BUNS

Place English muffin rings, 4" aluminum tins, tuna cans, etc. on a baking sheet and coat inside well with a nonstick spray. Fill half of them.

PIZZA SHELLS
(makes 2 14" shells)
Place mound of dough on greased cookie sheet or pizza pan. Sprinkle with tapioca flour, cover fingertips with flour, and gently par the dough out to desired size using the flat of your hand.

CINNAMON ROLLS:
Proceed as for buns, but put only a small amount of dough in ring, top mixture of brown sugar, cinnamon, nuts and currants or raisins (0r ½ c. sugar and 2 teaspoon cinnamon) repeat layers.

Allow dough to rise double in a warm place. Can take as long as 1 ½ hr.
Bake buns or rolls at 350F for 30 min. or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool on a rack. Swirl cinnamon rolls with icing if desired. Cut the buns in 2 . Seal in zip bags and freeze.
Bake unfilled pizza shells at 400 8 min. just until they begin to brown. Seal surface lightly with olive oil, fill with topping, bake 10 min. additional. Or freeze baked shells for future use, fill unthawed shells with desired topping, bake at 400F for 10-12 min.
