What kind of gluten free flour?

The recipe calls for gluten free flour. It does not specify if it should contain xanthan gum and there is no xanthan gum listed in the ingredients. Is xanthan gum not needed for this recipe?

In step 1 it suggests making your own GF flour blend with 1c. rice flour + 2/3c. tapioca starch flour + 1/3 c. cornstarch. No xanthan gum needed, apparently--not every recipe needs it, though I imagine adding a bit if you're worried wouldn't hurt.
