Almond Sweet Rolls Gluten Free

I am so pleased to share this recipe with you.

The rolls are wonderfully light and fluffy and the taste is exceptional .

I was rewarded by my granddaughter's reaction with her first bite ,
"Oh, my goodness, these are SO good !" and my gluten loving husband said... 
"These are miraculously good!"         I had to smile, didn't I ?

These keep well, they are still soft and good the next day.

Almond Sweet Rolls

• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp gelatin
• 1 1/2 tbsp reg. yeast
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 tsp almond flavoring
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup millet flour 
• 1/3 cup white bean flour
• 1/4 cup brown rice flour
• 1/2 cup tapioca starch/flour
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/3 cup almond flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp xanthan gum
• sweet rice for handling dough
• 1 egg white
• sesame seed or poppy seed (optional)

1. Mix sugar and gelatin, add warm water and yeast - let proof
2. Beat butter and sugar, add egg flavoring and warm milk
3. Blend well together dry ingredients
4. Add dry ingredients all at once to liquids , blend on low , then beat on high for 2 minutes.
5. Turn dough out onto counter sprinkled with sweet rice ... Work in enough sweet rice (I use about 1/4 cup) to make the dough just barely not sticky (on the outside, don't try to work the flour into all the dough) It is important to keep dough as soft as possible.
6. Pat dough into a 13 or 14 inch circle -- using a pizza cutter dipped in sweet rice flour, cut circle into 16 equal segments.
7. Starting at the wide end of each segment roll up ending at point - dipping fingers into sweet rice flour if dough is sticking.
8. Brush tops (I find it easier to use my fingers rather than a pastry brush) with whisked egg white.
9. Optional -- sprinkle tops with poppy seed or sesame seed
10. Place rolls on parchment lined cookie sheet and let rise in warm place about 1/2 -3/4 hour.
11. Bake in 375 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
