Instructions
- Whisk warm water, warm milk, instant yeast, and granulated sugar until yeast starts to froth.
- Beat in eggs and melted butter until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the gluten-free flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet and mix until a soft sticky dough forms.
- Scrape dough into a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Let dough rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Flour a surface lightly with gluten-free flour and turn dough out. Roll into a rough rectangle about 12 by 16 inches.
- Stir brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
- Brush the rolled dough with melted butter and sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly.
- Tightly roll the dough from the long side and pinch seam to seal. Cut into 12 even rolls.
- Arrange rolls in a greased 9 by 13 pan, cover, and let rise until puffy (30 to 45 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 350°F and bake rolls for 20 to 25 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- For the cream cheese frosting, beat cream cheese and softened butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until thick.
- Spread frosting on warm rolls to melt into the swirls.
- For the simple glaze, whisk powdered sugar with milk, vanilla, and salt until pourable. Drizzle over rolls and let set slightly before serving.
