Magic Rolls
- 3/4 cup plus 1-2 TBSP of water
- 6 TBSP of butter (3/4 stick)
- 1/4 cup of white whole wheat flour (or any flour, really)
- 3/4 cup of vital wheat gluten (Bob's Red Mill)
- 3 eggs
- pinch of salt
- 1 egg white (optional)
- Heat oven to 425 F. Line pans with parchment paper.
- Mix water and butter in a saucepan over medium heat until butter melts and simmers.
- In a bowl, mix together gluten and flour. Add a pinch of salt.
- Add this mixture to the pan and stir and mash until all of the dry material is absorbed.
- Remove from heat, let rest for a couple minutes, and beat in the eggs one at a time.
- After mixing in the eggs, the batter should be somewhat stiff, but soft. If the batter is too dry and stiff, add the egg white.
- Mound just shy of 1/4 cup batter onto the cookie sheet
- See how it settles a little, but still holds it shape and doesn't spread out much? That is what you want. Leave space because they get big in the oven!
- Bake at 425 for 20-25 minutes. Too cool = hollow!
- Remove from oven and move to a rack to cool. If you don't eat these all the same day, freeze in a zip lock.
