Alas, yeast doughs (like these Hot Dog Buns) are a particularly tough nut to crack in the gluten-free world. Gluten happens to be uniquely good at supporting the rise and structure of yeast bread and buns, and subbing in a gluten-free flour won't provide quite the love needed to make it fly. Rather than attempting to convert this existing yeast recipe to be gluten-free, we recommend using a recipe developed for gluten-free buns. While we don't have a version that's specifically for hot dog buns, our Gluten-Free Dinner Roll recipe would make a fantastic choice. Simply shape the dough into logs rather than buns, and split them longways once they're cooled. Happy GF baking! Kye@KAF
