Tin Foil Dividers for GF Sandwich Buns

I'm always trying to create innovative tools to assist me in cooking and baking gluten free. Tin foil solves a gluten free baking problem. Gluten free bread dough is the consistency of thick cake batter, so it cannot be formed into buns. However, forming simple tin foil structures allows me to use a regular baking dish to make GF hotdog and sub sandwich buns.

I use a 8 x 8 inch baking dish, but you can use a larger dish if you want to make more buns. Note: If you use my gluten free dough, it does not contain any preservatives. So, make only as many buns a you will eat in a day. Buns can be frozen, but they taste better fresh.

This instructable applies only to gluten free baking. The gluten-eaters can just enjoy the pictures!

• tin foil
• baking dish
• pan spray
• measuring tape
• scissors
• gluten free bread dough of your choice (see mine in this instructable).

• measure a length of foil 3 times the length of you pan + 2". For example an 8 x 8 pan needs (3*8")+2=26"
• cut with scissors or use the cutter on the foil box

• fold up 1" on the short side
• next fold up a series of 2" folds until you have just a 2" wide of foil

• cut off one edge of the folded foil to fit the pan

• be careful not to smooth out the creases

• put the unfolded foil in the pan with the 1" part hanging over the edge
• gather the foil up along the creases to create one side of the compartment
• repeat for the rest of the compartments
• for the last compartment fold the last inch of foil over the edge
• optional: make a small loose ball of foil and place in one end a compartment to create a shorter bun

• use the gluten free bread dough of your choice (see mine here )
• spray the pan with pan spray
• fill each compartment with bread dough to about 1 inch deep
• bake following your bread recipe
