Summer means cookouts and hamburgers. Some gluten-free hamburger buns are crumbly and fall apart before half of the burger is gone. Others are so expensive that they sit in the freezer waiting for an occasion special enough to pull them out (and by then it is too late to let them thaw properly before you need them). Chebe Sandwich Buns require no measuring, mixing, or rolling, and cook quickly so you have your burger bun fast.

The Chebe Sandwich Bun dough comes in the frozen section and is pre-cut into 4 squares. Each square makes one sandwich bun. Prepare the dough according to the package instructions (placing at least 2 inches apart on a non-greased cookie sheet). Bake per package instructions, being especially carefully not to overcook Chebe dough, which can become very hard. Chebe dough may not brown as you would expect, so follow the timing instructions.

When they are finished baking they will puff up like little pillows. They are not soft, and not very brown, but they are finished. Be careful not to cook them too long!

Let the baked squares cool for about 20 minutes. Then cut them in half creating two halves of a sandwich bun. The inside of the bun will be softer than the outside, which will feel like smooth toast.

Use the Chebe Sandwich Buns at your cookout or favorite restaurant. They are slightly crunchy on the outside, which give sandwiches and burgers a firm hold. They don't get too soggy from sauces, another nice change from typical gluten-free bread options. The square shape is a little odd, but the size works for most average burgers and sandwiches.
The package of Chebe Sandwich Bun dough used for this article was purchased at the King Soopers on 30th St in Boulder, CO. Some stores carry the flour mix, but not the frozen dough. Check the Chebe Store Locator for stores in Colorado and call ahead to see if they carry the frozen dough. If they don't carry it, ask them to start carrying it, and show neighborhood grocery stores that there is a demand for gluten-free products.
