These fast and easy Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls are super yummy and don’t taste like they are gluten-free AT ALL! GF eaters rejoice!

I made these Gluten Free cinnamon rolls on Saturday {after cleaning the floor} and they were good. Very good, in fact.

I didn’t bother with the different ‘gums’ you can add into gluten free dough to create a similar texture to gluten…because I didn’t feel like it. I just made some biscuit dough with a little yeast {for flavor} and rolled them up like cinnamon rolls. Ready in less than an hour, baby!

You cannot tell they are gluten free. Obviously the texture is more like a biscuit, but besides THAT, they taste mighty fine. I really like the gluten free flour blend I used.

If you want the real deal and aren’t on the gluten free train, I would highly recommend my Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls. They are life changing. For everyone else, give these a whirl!

Here’s how you make them:

Start by stirring some quick rise yeast into about a cup of warm milk with a pinch of sugar. Set this aside to proof.

In a large bowl, measure out all your dry ingredients and stir to combine.

By the way, I used this gluten free flour blend….available online, at whole foods or any other grocery store that has a health section. The Pamela’s Products brand seems to be pretty popular in Portland…meaning I can find it at just about any store. If you have a different brand where you’re at, use what you can find. I’ve heard good things about several gluten-free brands.

**Recipe update: Due to feedback from you readers, I can say that this recipe will work with ONLY Pamela’s GF Flour Blend. The ratios of ingredients in those mixes of GF Flour blends is too different, unfortunately when compared to Pamela’s. If you plan on making this recipe, please use Pamela’s.

Ok, so now you need to cube up some butter and cut that into your dry ingredients.

Like so! You still want smaller butter chunks in your dough…..kind of like we’re making pastry, but not.

Once the butter chunks are all dispersed, pour in the warm milk and yeast mixture and stir until dough comes together. Transfer this dough to a floured work surface.

Then comes the cinnamon roll part. Roll dough into a rectangle, cover with butter, then sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll, cut, put into pan. Then, cover and place on the warm oven that’s preheating to get that yeast growing. We’re not going to let these rise for a full hour or two, but you do want to give them a bit of a head start. Once the oven is hot, pop these in and get them baking.

While the rolls are doing their thing, whip up some cream cheese frosting. I used the frosting recipe from my cinnabons because I heart cream cheese frosting, but use whichever recipe you’d like.

Once the rolls are all baked and piping hot, spread the frosting overtop and watch everything ooze. I love a warm cinnamon roll!

Yummy sweet and cinnaminy layers of goodness that are all slathered with frosting. These were super yummy and didn’t taste like they were gluten free AT ALL! I was amazed.
