    Gluten-Free Lightly-Sweet Challah Buns

    July 25, 2013

    The source of this recipe is a colleague who claimed it was the best Challah recipe in the world. He was right. As I tend to do, I made some changes and improvements, and then did some experimentation to convert it to a Gluten-free version. I’ll let you be the judge… Gluten-Free Dough Ingredients 1 kg. Tagmish flour (not yet available outside of Israel. If you have a GF flour mix that can make buns and other shaped goods, try it) 200 gr. sugar (for really sweet buns, add 50-100 gr. sugar, to taste) 20 gr. dry yeast 100 gr. vegetable oil 2 eggs 3½ cups warm water 20 gr.…
