Gluten Free 60% Whole Grain Hamburger Buns Recipe (Or Bread) image

I didn't actually do the math but these buns taste like the bread we used to comprise on. Healthy enough for Mom but still fluffy enough for the family to enjoy. This recipe was, as all successful multigrain bread recipes I've read have been, inspired by Heather Butt and Donna Washburn of 125 Best Gluten-Free Recipes. I freeze them as soon as they are cool and when I pull them out they are as good as new. If you are baking gluten free and haven't bought muffin top pans yet, I have to say, besides my mixer, they have been my best gluten free investment. This recipe makes one 4 1/2 by 9 loaf and one bun if you prefer bread and doubles very well if you want bread and buns. Since I started using this recipe my gluten eating husband doesn't buy bread anymore.
