In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Stir to evenly distribute.
In a small saucepan, warm the milk until it is lukewarm (about 100-110°F). Stir in 4 tablespoons of the melted butter, the egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while mixing. Stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it is workable but still slightly tacky.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a roughly 12x16-inch rectangle.
To prepare the filling, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Brush the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the rolled-out dough, leaving a half-inch border along the edges. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered surface.
Carefully roll the dough tightly from the long end to form a log. Trim the edges for evenness, then cut the log into 9 equal pieces using dental floss or a sharp knife.
Place the rolls in a greased 9x9-inch baking dish, ensuring they have space to rise. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean dish towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Once the rolls have risen, bake them for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden and baked through.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the icing. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. If the icing is too thick, add more milk, a teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for 5-10 minutes. Spread the cream cheese icing generously over the warm cinnamon rolls before serving. Enjoy!
