Cinnabon-Ish Cinnamon Rolls (Gluten-Free) Recipe #376575
This is a combination of two or three recipes. Makes some absolutely delicious and decadent cinnamon rolls. The frosting is good straight out of the bowl. I have successfully substituted buckwheat flour for the millet flour in this recipe and a review has used oat flour to great success as well. I'm betting brown rice flour wouldn't be horrible either.
1¾ hours | 1¼ hours prep
SERVES 8 , 8 rolls
Dough
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 2/3 cup skim milk, warmed
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup potato starch
- 3/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup millet flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Filling
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
Icing
- 8 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- Dough:.
- Dissolve the yeast in large mixing bowl with warmed milk. Let bubble for a few minutes.
- Add sugar, butter, oil, and vanilla to milk/yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
- Add egg and combine thoroughly.
- Sift together salt, potato starch, cornstarch, buckwheat, baking soda, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
- Slowly add flour mixture to mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.
- Remove dough from mixing bowl and place in a greased container and put in a warm place to rise for 45-60 minutes. The dough will be extremely sticky, do not worry, this is normal.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Roll dough to 1/4" thick 13 x 13 square between 2 pieces of well floured parchment paper.
- Remove top sheet of paper from rolled dough and spread softened butter on top of dough.
- Combine brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over buttered dough surface. Leave a 2" strip of dough uncovered at one end of square.
- Using bottom sheet of parchment paper has an aid, roll the dough into a log. Start at the end opposite of that which you left uncovered.
- Carefully cut into 8 equal pieces using a serrated knife. Place rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving about half an inch between rolls to allow for expansion. Put any remaining cinnamon/sugar mixture in the bottom of the dish.
- At this point you can either bake them or allow them to rise a bit longer.
- Bake in oven for ~18-22 minutes until tops are golden brown and delicious. Check for doneness by running a knife between rolls in the center of the dish. Dough should not easily stick to the knife.
- While the rolls are baking, whip together frosting ingredients until soft and creamy. Try not to eat it all before the rolls are done!
