Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup warm milk
  • 2.25 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg

Filling Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted

Glaze Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon milk or cream
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a small bowl, combine warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour blend and salt. Add granulated sugar to the yeast mixture and stir.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Add softened butter and the egg. Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  • Punch down the dough and roll it into a 12x9-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • Spread the melted butter evenly over the dough, leaving a small border. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the butter.
  • Roll up the dough tightly from the long side. Cut the roll into 12 equal slices.
  • Place the cinnamon rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls before serving.

Notes

These gluten-free cinnamon rolls are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
