Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls are amazing! You would never know they are gluten free! The whole family loved these! They would be perfect for any holiday or really any day of the week! If you don't have buttermilk add one tablespoon of white vinegar with regular milk. I also made a really delicious caramel sauce for the bottom of my pan by melting 1/4 cup butter with 1/4 cup of brown sugar and 1 tsp Cinnamon.
It doesn't get better than Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls on a Saturday morning! My family loves these! Be sure to give this recipe a try!
Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
- Dough Mixture
- 2 1/2 cups Pamela’s Ultimate Baking Mix plus extra for the counter
- 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Cinnamon Filling
- 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Frosting Ingredients
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 tablespoons milk or cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and coat a 9-inch round baking pan or baking sheet with butter or vegetable spray.
- Make the cinnamon filling first.
- Melt the butter, then mix with the remaining the ingredients.
- Stir until thoroughly combined.
- Set aside.
- Next make the dough.
- Mix all dry ingredients in one bowl.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter, then mix with the buttermilk in a separate bowl.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and combine with a spatula or spoon.
- Use a lot of flour to coat either a large cutting board or the counter top. Turn the dough out onto the counter top and begin to flatten into a rectangle.
- The dough will be very sticky so continue to sprinkle more flour while flattening the dough.
- Make the rectangle around 12 inches long and about 8 or 9 inches wide. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and brush over the top of the dough, then spread the cinnamon mixture over the top.
- Gently pat into the dough.
- Start rolling the long end of the dough into a giant cylinder.
- After all the dough is rolled, take a knife and cut the roll into 8 sections.
- After all the rolls are in the pan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and brush it over the top of the rolls.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Prepare the frosting while the cinnamon rolls are baking.
- Melt the butter.
- Mix the milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar in with the melted butter.
- Stir until creamy and combined.
- Let the cinnamon rolls cool for around 5-10 minutes, then apply frosting to the top the rolls.

This is exactly what I am looking for for this Christmas morning. Just one question. Can I make ahead on Christmas Eve, place in fridge, then cook on Christmas morning?
Thanks again!~k

I would love to know if you tried this and if it worked or not! I'm trying to find a good gf roll recipe that will keep overnight and am wondering if they'll go flat or not. Hmm.
Thanks!

I was so excited to try these! Rolling it out was quite frustrating, and they are now flat in the pan as they bake!!!:( What happened? Any tips? I followed directions exactly. I'm so disappointed. Woke up early and worked through hg morning sickness to make these and nothing like pictured above.

Did you roll them too thin? Did you add more flour to the counter when you rolled them? Did you measure exactly? I am sorry they didn't turn out for you. This is a recipe that our family loves and always turns out well for us.

Can you please clarify which Pamela's flour mix you use in the GF Cinnamon Rolls? I am not familiar with a 'ultimate' baking mix nor can I find in our stores. Do you use the Pamela's Baking and Pancake mix or the bread flour? Thank you!

You can use the Pamela's Baking and Pancake Mix 🙂
