Ingredients
* 3/4 cup plus 2 TBSP of water * 6 TBSP of butter (3/4 stick) * 1/4 cup of bread flour * 3/4 cup of vital wheat gluten * 3 eggs * pinch of salt (my addition) * 1 egg white (optional)
Directions
Heat your oven to 425F

Bring the water and butter to a simmer in a wide saucier. When it's simmering, add the salt and whisk in the gluten and flour.

Stir the gluten mixture over low heat until it starts to form a ball and some of the excess moisture has cooked out.

Transfer the gluten mixture to a big mixing bowl (or a stand mixer) and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Then slowly beat in the eggs, one at a time, adding the next egg after there is no egg yolk visible in the batter. If the batter is not smooth (it should look like a slightly thick cake batter), add the extra egg white.

Use a disher or measuring cup to place 2oz. blobs of the batter onto two cookie sheets. I was able to get 10 rolls, you may get anywhere from 8-12 depending on the size of your scoops.

Bake for 25 minutes, and the little blobs of matter will puff into great big rolls of chewy goodness!

    I have tried this recipe using the website you referred. My first try the rolls did not rise - got a very nice flatbread! Will try again, but this seems like a delicate recipe to make. My LC hubby wants me to persevere! - 7/17/15
