Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups gluten-free flour blend (about 420 g)
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 105–110°F / 40–43°C)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs

  • 4 oz cream cheese (for glaze)

  2. Add the gluten-free flour blend and xanthan gum, then mix until a dough forms.
  3. Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes to hydrate.
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
  5. Spread softened butter over the dough and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Roll the dough tightly and slice into 9-12 pieces.
  7. Arrange the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch pan and let them proof for 30-45 minutes until puffy.
  8. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 18-22 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and salt to make a glaze; drizzle over warm rolls.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use vegan butter and plant milk. You can prepare the rolls the night before and refrigerate them.
