These vegan gluten free burger buns are more like flat bread burger buns, but hey they are not dry, they are spongy and they pass the hubb’s I can’t believe this is gluten-free test. The buns have white, brown rice flours, starches, a bit of oat flour, non dairy yogurt and are baked covered with parchment. Steam, capture the Steam!
You can substitute upto half of the grain flour with other flours of preference. Keep some white rice and some oat in there for best results. The yogurt gives great moist texture to the buns, so try to add some non dairy yogurt. You can use full-fat coconut milk or mashed avocado as well. You can also make larger flat breads with the dough or shape into Naans!
Make a bunch of these today!

Makes 8 Â 3.5 inch Buns
Ingredients:
1/2 cup white rice flour
1/4 cup brown rice flour
1/4 cup Oat flour (or use amaranth, millet or sorghum)
1/4 cup tapioca starch
1/4 cup potato starch
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup water
2 tsp active yeast
1 tsp raw sugar or maple syrup
1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup non dairy yogurt (I used coconut milk yogurt), or use full fat coconut milk
1/2 cup water
Method:
In a bowl, add all the dry ingredients and whisk very well.
In another bowl, add warm 1/4 cup water, sugar and yeast. Mix and let sit for 5 minutes or until frothy.
Add the frothy yeast mixture to the dry mix. Add the oil, yogurt and 1/2 cup warm water to the bowl as well. Mix to make a thick batter.
Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Let the batter sit near the warm oven for 10 minutes.
Mix the batter and Drop a 1/4-1/3 cup of the batter or large spoon fulls on parchment lined sheet. Spray water on the batter, flatten and shape into flat 1/2 inch rounds. (wet your hands in water to reduce sticking). Sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Let the shaped breads sit in a warm place for 10 minutes. spray water on top. Place another parchment sheet on top so it just sits lightly on the buns. (This is important to keep all the moisture from escaping the buns)
Bake for 11-12 minutes. Remove from oven, remove the top parchment and let cool for 5 minutes before removing the buns from the sheet. The buns taste best fresh or well toasted.Â
The buns keep well upto 4 days refrigerated. Toast or grill to refresh. Freeze separated by parchment in ziplock or air tight container. Thaw and Toast to refresh.
Variations: add fresh herbs, garlic, jalapenos or shredded cheese in the dough.
These buns are being shared at allergy Free Wednesdays.Â
My batter is never thick. It is supposed to be 1/2 cup of white rice flour and 1/4 cup of all the other flours? What am I doing wrong?
what is the consistency of the batter then? this batter will continue get thick as it sits. so let it sit for another 15 minutes if too wet. you can add more rice or oat flour to help if needed. to shape, spray water or oil on the dollop of batter, place parchment on it and shape it.
It’s pretty runny. After I let it sit for the time specified in the directions it is still runny and it just spreads out like pancakes kind of. I do live at a high altitude so I don’t know if that makes a difference but I will try adding more flour and letting it sit longer. It still tastes good but they aren’t very thick when finished.
hmm it could be the high altitude. add more rice/oat flour so the the batter is stiff enough to be shaped thicker.
I’ve found that if I use coconut milk, even with all the fat the batter is too thin. I used yogurt tonight and didn’t have to add any extra flour.
yes the yogurt definitely holds the batter much better
I made these yesterday morning, and they’re delicious! I’ve actually been toasting them and spreading some jam on for breakfast, and grilling them as a side with my dinner. This is definitely the best and most successful gluten-free bread I’ve ever made. I’m going to keep making them for awhile!
My son has a bunch of allergies and your recipes seem perfect! He is not allergic to dairy, can I sub regular yogurt in place of non dairy yogurt in all your recipes?
I wouldn’t know. I haven’t use regular yogurt in a long while. this is a vegan blog, i.e no animal products used 🙂
Hei thanks for this wonderful recipe. Can I use dry yeast instead of the active yeast? Thanks again for sharing. God bless.
it is dry active yeast in the recipe. you can use dry instant yeast as well.
I made these last night, they are AMAZING. I also sprinkled a little coarse salt on the top it was devine!
Just a side not by accident i added 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/4 cup of water. They still turned out beautifully. The best gluten free buns ever! 🙂
Awesome!!
These just came out of the oven .. and I’m having a hard time stopping myself from gobbling them all up!
Awesome! I am so happy you like them!
Wow! These look delicious. I haven’t experimented with making any gluten-free flour blends for buns and other breads. This recipe looks like the perfect place for me to start. I bet my gluten-free clients are going to love this 🙂
Thanks Jenne. 🙂 Are you planning to make some for some event?
How cute those are! I have to try them just for that alone!
