HOMEMADE GLUTEN-FREE CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine sugar and yeast for dough in a small bowl. Mix 1 3/4 cups flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt together in a second bowl.
• Place milk and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high, stirring every 15 seconds, until 110 to 115 degrees F (43 to 46 degrees C), about 45 seconds. Whisk into the yeast mixture and set aside to proof, about 5 minutes.
• Combine proofed yeast with olive oil, egg, and vanilla extract in a large bowl; mix for a moment and then slowly add in the flour mixture. Mix with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until dough thickens and loses some of its stickiness, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Cover a work surface with a sheet of good quality plastic wrap and a light layer of flour. Place dough in the center and cover with a little more flour and another sheet of plastic wrap. Roll out to a 10x13-inch rectangle; remove top layer of plastic wrap.
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon for filling in a small bowl. Spread melted butter over the entire dough rectangle and sprinkle brown sugar mixture evenly over top.
• Start at a long edge and roll the dough, using the plastic wrap to help lift and roll as you go. Lightly sprinkle dough with more flour and cut into 10 pieces with a sharp knife. Place rolls in a greased baking pan, cover with plastic wrap, and place in a warm spot to rise for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 22 to 27 minutes.
• While rolls are baking, beat butter and cream cheese for frosting in a mixing bowl until smooth. Add powdered sugar; mix until smooth. Mix in lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt.
• Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and immediately drizzle frosting over top.

CINNABON-ISH CINNAMON ROLLS (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• 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, millet flour, baking soda, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
• Slowly add flour mixture to mixing bowl. Stir until well combined. If the dough appears too sticky/wet, add more flour as necessary.
• 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. Some reviewers have commented that there is too much filling, if so, don't use it all ;).
• 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!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degress.
• For the rolls, combine 4 cups flour, 2 tsps of salt, 2 tbsp of sugar and 8 tsps of baking powder in a medium bowl.
• Once combined add 1 quart of heavy cream.
• Stir together gently until a shaggy mass comes together. If it seems too wet, add more flour 1 tbsp at a time.
• Turn out onto a generously floured work service and knead until a semi cohesive mass comes together (maybe 30 seconds to a minute). Roll out with a floured rolling pin until it is roughly 16 inches long by 12 inches wide, should be approximately 1/4 inch thick).
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon into a small bowl.
• Spread 1/3 cup of butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon/sugar mixture evenly over the surface of the dough.
• Working carefully, from the long edge, roll the dough down to the bottom edge.
• After trimming the edges, cut the dough into 1.5 inch slices, and placed into a lightly greased baking dish with the edges touching. (or you can use a 1/2 sheet pan lined in parchment).
• Bake for 20-25 mins or until golden brown.
• While the rolls are baking, make the icing by mixing the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, butter, cream cheese and salt in a stand mixer until fluffy and smooth.
• When the rolls are done, spread generously with icing.
