Ingredients

• 300 grams Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 75 grams Unsalted Butter
• 50 grams Granulated Sugar
• 2 units Large Eggs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. You can use an electric mixer for this.

Step 4

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Step 5

Add the milk and vanilla extract, and continue beating until the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Fold the raisins into the batter using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking tray, forming 8 equal mounds.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and allow the buns to cool on a wire rack before serving.
