Thee Most BOMB Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls
I keep the ingredients for these on hand at all times. This recipe is one of those desserts that hits the spot every single time I need to satisfy my sweet tooth.
Dough Ingredients:
-
1/4 cup unsalted butter (earth balance butter for dairy-free)
-
1/2 cup Sugar
-
2 Eggs
-
2-1/4 tsp Yeast Packet (from the package)
-
1 cup water (warm)
-
3-1/4 cup Gluten-Free Pizza Crust @bobsredmill
- White Rice Flour or Organic White Rice Flour (as needed for dusting)
Dough Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
-
Add 1 Tbsp of the sugar to the warm water.
-
Sprinkle the yeast packet on top of the water and let sit 5 minutes.
-
Cream together the butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, making sure to blend in thoroughly.
-
Add the yeast mixture to the butter/egg mixture and blend.
-
Add in the pizza crust mix; blend two minutes.
-
Heavily dust a 2-foot long sheet of wax paper with rice flour—spread batter over the length of the wax paper, about 19 inches.
-
Using warm water, wet your hands, and press the dough outward to fill the sheet. Keep your hands wet.
-
Once the batter evenly covers the wax paper, brush melted butter over the money from edge to edge.
Filling Ingredients:
-
1/4 cup butter (melted) (earth balance butter for dairy-free)
-
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
-
2 tsp ground Cinnamon
Filling Instructions:
-
Combine the cinnamon and sugar and then sprinkle mixture over the dough from edge to edge.
-
Pick up the short end of the wax paper and begin carefully rolling the dough over itself like you would a jelly roll.
-
Cut the roll into 1 1/2 inch pieces and gently place the disks into the 8 x 8 inch or 9 x 13 inch greased the pan. Crowding them is okay.
-
Let the rolls rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
-
Bake for 20 – 25 minutes.
-
Remove from oven, cool until the butter stops bubbling, then flip out onto a plate.
-
Frost and enjoy it!
