Yay! The first Post!
You should all be excited because I ventured out and made gluten free cinnamon rolls!!!
I used another blog for my recipe which I've included below! She has many other gf items as well...But a few tips first!
1) She suggests using a silpat mat, whatever that is...haha The countertop works just fine!
2) If you don't have a rolling pin like me, just find something round! I used an ice cream scoop!
3) Patience is truly the key to these babies!
After following the instructions on the above blog, this is what it should look like.
^This is 3 hours of rising (not much improvement, but some!)^
Finally I let them rise ALL night long!
& they finally started to touch!!!
The End Result! (minus frosting)
These Cinnamon Rolls look really messy and ugly, but as a college girl having no idea what to do, I'd say they turned out pretty good! They come about as close to a cinnamon roll as your gonna get!
She includes a cream cheese frosting, but I like the one out of
The Cake Doctor Bakes Gluten Free by Anne Byrn
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, at room temp.
1/2 stick of butter (4 TBS)
3 cups powdered sugar; sifted
(if you don't have a sifter, fluff it with a fork, it works just the same)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Mix the cream cheese and butter in an electric mixer
Then add the vanilla extract
Next slowly add the powdered sugar a bit at a time
Increase the mixer speed for about a min and a half
She says the frosting can be made the day before, just make sure you bring it back to room temp. before trying to use it.
I hope these helped!!! Enjoy your Cinnamon Rolls!
The reason why they look messy is because there's no gluten to hold them together! Hahhaha. I learned that in my foods class last week :) haha. The things you learn in college. Lol. :) but they actually look really yummy! Good job ash! :D
ReplyDeleteAwesome recipe Ash! But my only question is...how do you keep from eating the frosting if you make it the day before??? LOL!
