What type of flour is best for gluten-free cinnamon rolls?

There is no right nor wrong answer to this question.

Some people prefer dense cinnamon rolls, others healthy cinnamon rolls, but here I am today presenting you the best ever gluten-free and vegan cinnamon rolls that are soft, fluffy, buttery, and even better than storebought ones!

In this recipe, I used a gluten-free flour mix. This is basically the first-ever gluten-free flour mix I like! I used this one, and I found it in Lidl, however, I did some research and these flours have almost the same ingredients!

The first very similar flour is King Arthur's gluten-free flour.

The second one is Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour.

You can use any of these flours and I'm sure you will have the same result.

Let's make these fluffy gluten-free cinnamon rolls with yeast!

To make these flourless cinnamon rolls you will need only one bowl.

First combine dry ingredients, which are:

  • gluten-free flour
  • instant yeast
  • baking powder
  • brown sugar

Next, add warm oat milk, vegan margarine, and vanilla.

Combine and create a smooth but fluffy dough. Let it sit for about 1 hour covered in a warm place.

Meanwhile, combine the ingredients for the cinnamon filling:

  • vegan margarine
  • brown sugar
  • cinnamon

When the dough has doubled in size, transfer it to a well-floured surface and roll it into 0.4 inches thick.

Carefully spread the cinnamon mixture over the dough and cut 8 long stripes horizontally.

Roll the stripes into cinnamon rolls separately and place them into the baking pan aligned with the baking sheet.

You should have 8 cinnamon rolls in total.

Transfer them into the baking pan aligned with a baking sheet and let them sit covered in a warm place for about 30 minutes before baking.

Bake the cinnamon rolls for about 15 minutes, but keep an eye on them. As long as they are golden brown, they should be done and completely baked!

Serve dusted with powdered sugar or with a sugar glaze. Enjoy!

These gluten-free and vegan cinnamon rolls are absolutely delicious. They are soft, moist, buttery and so good! These are the best gluten-free cinnamon rolls you will ever have!

    Hi, I'd like to prep these as far as possible and then bake them fresh in the morning for breakfast. Should I let the dough rise twice then refrigerate the rolls overnight? Thanks.

      Hi, I never tried to make them as you described, so I can't tell you if this will work. But if you want to bake them fresh in the morning I suggest you wake up earlier to create the dough and prove them twice, just like in the recipe for the best results.
