Gooey cinnamon buns Gluten Free
The buns:
1/4 c warm water (around 110 degrees)
1/3 c sugar
1 packet of yeast (2 1/4 t if you don’t use packets)
3/4 c milk
4 T butter, melted
1 egg and a yolk
1 t salt
3 c Better Batter flour
Combine the warm water, sugar and yeast in a small bowl and let proof for 5 minutes. Beat together the milk, butter, eggs, salt and yeast mixture. Stir in the flour mix a cup at a time. The dough will be pretty thick.
For the cinnamon filling:
2/3 c brown sugar
1 T cinnamon
4 T butter, melted
Divide the dough in half. Set one half aside, and roll out the other half on a well floured surface. Don’t roll too thin, about 1/3″ is good. Half an inch is ok too. Brush the top with butter, and sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top. Roll up, and cut with a sharp knife into 3/4″-1″ slices. Repeat with the other dough half.
For the topping:
1/4 c brown sugar
3 T butter
3 T honey
1 T corn syrup
Combine the ingredients in a small bowl, and microwave until butter is melted. Stir to combine, and pour into the bottom of a 13×9 glass pan.
Place the sliced cinnamon rolls on top of the sticky sauce, spaced evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for about 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375 while the rolls are rising. Bake 30-40 minutes until topping is bubbling around the sides and the tops are brown. Turn out onto a plate and try not to eat them all at once. Makes about 20.
