    Wonder dough

    1 packet of RED STAR yeast (it's gluten free)
    2/3 cup warm water
    1/2 tsp sugar
    1/2 C Brown rice flour
    1/2 C potato starch — or 1/4 C golden flax meal and 1/4 C tapioca
    starch
    1 T sweet rice flour –or extra brown rice flour
    1/2 tsp salt
    2 tsp xanthan gum
    1 tsp unflavored gelatin powder
    1 T olive oil
    1 tsp rice vinegar
    Mix the yeast, sugar and water. Add the dry ingredients and mix well.
    Add a little bit of extra starch to be able to handle the dough
    easily. (It's pretty sticky)

    Preheat the oven to 400. Let the shaped dough rise ten minutes on a
    parchment lined cookie sheet.
    sprinkling the sheet with ground flax meal gives a nice "bakery" touch


    -Breadsticks/Pretzels- shape them either forming them by hand, (rolling them like playdough snakes), or by squeezing them out of a pastry bag. I used a ziplock bag with the corner cut off. A piece of parchment paper rolled into a cone would have worked even better. The ones we did by hand were more "rustic", so we smoothed out the dough
    slightly with water dipped fingers. The ones we shaped with the ziplock bag looked just like the one from the store.

    -You can brush them with rice milk and sprinkle on coarse salt for "pretzels"

    - Add seasonings to the dough before shaping it into breadsticks: onion powder, garlic powder, oregano leaves, basil…. or ?

    -Sticky buns- I added a teaspoon of vanilla and a Tablespoon of sugar to the dough when mixing it up. Pat the dough into a rectangle shape on a cutting board. Spread a small amount of olive oil or palm shortening on top and sprinkle brown sugar all over it. Cinnamon or
    spices optional. Add golden raisins. Roll up the rectangle and slice it into buns. Bake in a greased pan.

    - Jam rolls - spread jam on the rectangle of dough and roll and slice like cinnamon rolls.

    - pizza crust - shape the crust. Let it rise for ten minutes. Bake it for 8-10 minutes. Top with whatever you like and bake again until the toppings are hot- probably another 10 minutes at least.

    -sandwich buns - shape like hockey pucks less than 1/2 thick circles or long shaped for hotdogs. They puff up while baking. Cool. Slice.

    Preheat the oven to 400. Let the shaped dough rise ten minutes on a
    parchment lined cookie sheet.

    Bake 10-15 minutes or until the outside of the dough is beginning to show a little golden brown color. The breadsticks will be sort of crusty/crunchy on the outside and bread soft in the middle. I baked the sticky buns for 20 minutes. Sandwich buns about 18 depending on
    size and thickness.

    Let cool on wire rack and slice. They keep well in freezer or fridge for a few days if they last that long.
