- 2 cups gluten free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum or add 1 tsp)
- 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1/4 cup sorghum flour
- 1/4 cup tapioca starch
- 2 tbsp psyllium husk or ground flaxseed
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 cup unsweetened almond or oat milk (warm)

- 2 tbsp vegan butter, melted (for filling)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp dairy-free cream cheese or coconut cream (for frosting)
Instructions
- Warm almond or oat milk, add yeast and coconut sugar. Let sit until foamy.
- In a large bowl, combine gluten free flour blend, rice flour, sorghum flour, tapioca starch, and psyllium husk.
- Add melted vegan butter and yeast mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Cover bowl and let dough rise in a warm spot until doubled in size.
- Dust surface with rice flour, roll dough into a rectangle.
- Brush dough with melted vegan butter, sprinkle with dark brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll tightly from the long edge, slice with sharp knife or floss into even rolls.
- Place rolls in greased baking dish, cover, and let rise again for 30 minutes.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes until golden and fluffy.
- Whisk powdered sugar with dairy-free cream cheese for frosting and drizzle over warm rolls.
Notes
Keep dough soft but not sticky—adjust with milk or flour as needed. Store rolls in an airtight container for 3 days, or freeze unfrosted rolls and thaw overnight. Reheat gently to keep them fluffy.
