Prepration for:Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free Cinnamon Rolls (Soy-Free)

Step 1/6

Activate the Yeast

In a bowl, combine warm milk, maple syrup, and yeast. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.

Step 2/6

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, mix gluten-free flour, tapioca starch, coconut sugar, and salt. Add yeast mixture and oil. Mix until a dough forms — it will be soft but not overly sticky. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.

Step 3/6

Roll Out & Fill

Roll dough out between two sheets of parchment into a rectangle (~1/4″ thick). Spread softened butter/oil across dough, sprinkle with cinnamon and coconut sugar. Carefully roll into a log, using parchment to help. Slice into 8 rolls.

Step 4/6

Second Rise (Optional for fluffier rolls)

Place rolls in a greased or lined baking dish. Let rest for 15–20 minutes while oven preheats to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5/6

Bake

Bake for 25–30 minutes until golden and puffed. Cool slightly before glazing.

Step 6/6

Make the Glaze

Whisk glaze ingredients until smooth and pourable. Drizzle over warm rolls.

Chef's Tips & Notes

Best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated! Store in the fridge for 3–4 days or freeze unglazed rolls. Add chopped pecans or raisins inside for variation.
