Gluten-Free Fadge (Irish Potato Rolls)

Fadge, an Irish potato roll, is tasty for breakfast or dinner. This easy gluten-free and dairy-free recipe can make use of leftover mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

• 0.75 cup flour (all-purpose gluten-free blend like Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Mix)
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder (gluten-free)
• 1 pound potatoes (mashed, you can use unpeeled red potatoes)
• 1 medium egg
• 2.5 tablespoons olive oil (or light or melted butter if you aren't avoiding dairy)
• Optional: 2 tablespoons minced chives
• For rolling: gluten-free flour blend
• For brushing tops: olive oil or melted butter

Steps

1. Gather the ingredients.
2. To bake gluten-free fadge, preheat oven to 400 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
3. Measure and blend dry ingredients in a small bowl. In a mixing bowl, blend mashed potatoes, egg, and olive oil or melted butter. Add dry ingredients and mix until combined.
4. Turn the fadge dough out onto a lightly gluten-free floured cutting board. Roll or press the fadge dough with hands into 1/2-inch thickness.
5. Use a round biscuit cutter to shape the fadge cakes or cut them with a knife in any shape you like. Place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
6. Brush with olive oil or melted butter and bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes. After baking for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and turn the fadge over so that both sides brown evenly. Serve warm.
7. To pan-fry fadge rather than baking, add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a large skillet and heat over a medium burner. Add fadge and fry each side until golden brown.
