Basically you are making a biscuit type dough, rolling it flat, topping with brown sugar and vegan butter and rolling into a jelly roll shape.
Then all you need to do is slice, place in a baking pan and bake.
Easy right?

Homemade gluten-free cinnamon rolls that are soft, fluffy and oh so delicious. There really is nothing better than a warm and gooey cinnamon bun.

With no yeast in the gluten-free cinnamon bun recipe there is no waiting for dough to rise. In the recipe I used goat milk, for I am not able to handle cow dairy right now. You could substitute coconut milk if you are wanting a plant-based alternative.

This recipe is easy to make and I know everyone will love them. No icing is needed with these cinnamon buns. I sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on the bottom of the pan before I add the rolled buns. Then pour a bit of goat milk over the top of the buns before baking. Once the buns are baked you will have a decadent caramel topping on them.
