Ingredients

• 2.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Milk (or non-dairy alternative)
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for filling)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the milk until warm (about 110°F) and add the unsalted butter to melt. Allow it to cool to a lukewarm temperature.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Add the milk and butter mixture, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a smooth dough forms.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Step 5

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon for the filling.

Step 7

Spread the 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over the rolled-out dough, leaving a slight border around the edges.

Step 8

Sprinkle the cinnamon-brown sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 9

Starting from a long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.

Step 10

Place the rolls, cut side up, into a greased baking pan. Cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 11

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 12

Bake the cinnamon rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 13

Allow the cinnamon rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your gluten-free gifflar cinnamon rolls warm or at room temperature.
