Perfect for weekend mornings or holiday brunch, these gluten-free pull-apart cinnamon rolls are gooey, cinnamon deliciousness drizzled with a cream cheese frosting. You’ll be glad you can just reach in and snitch a bite-sized roll! This recipe is sponsored by Nielsen-Massey Vanillas – my favorite pure vanilla extract! Just about everyone I talk to that has to eat gluten-free misses cinnamon rolls. While I’m still working on my recipe for big fat individual cinnamon rolls like you buy at the mall, I have perfected this lovely recipe for gluten-free pull-apart cinnamon rolls. They’re like a delicious combo of cinnamon rolls and monkey bread but made gluten-free! I’ve been developing this recipe for the past few years, and I’m excited to finally share it with you! I think these turned out so well, you’re going to need to grab or make some little gluten-free labels like I have in my photo if you’re going to bring this to a holiday brunch. People aren’t going to believe you that these are gluten-free! While I know I’ve mentioned Nielsen-Massey vanilla extracts on here before (since I love them), today I get to tell you more! Why do I love using Nielsen-Massey vanilla products? First, they’re certified gluten-free, certified Kosher, allergen-free and GMO-free. I look at allergen statements on a ton of websites and the Nielsen-Massey allergen info is among the best I’ve read. It’s clear on exactly what they do to keep people like us safe! You can find it in their FAQ section under dietary needs. I actually reached out to them recently just to tell them how much I appreciate their allergen statement online. Wouldn’t it be nice if it was so easy to find that information for every brand we try to use? The second reason that I love Nielsen-Massey products – all of the products I’ve tried of theirs are so flavorful! They smell amazing and they make anything I bake taste so good! When baking festive holiday recipes, it’s especially important to choose pure ingredients with rich flavor profiles. Yes, before you start that holiday baking, toss all those old bottles of vanilla extract, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and spices. You want fresh and effective ingredients so your family favorite recipes turn out well! I like to serve these gluten-free pull-apart cinnamon rolls as part of a yummy brunch, alongside a savory egg dish like my overnight gluten-free breakfast casserole. For drinks, we love this homemade Orange Julius recipe and this crock pot hot chocolate recipe – either would be a great choice for your brunch! Nielsen-Massey has some allergy-friendly recipes on their website already that you should check out. I’m hoping to help them add more! Be sure to let me know if you try this over the holidays or anytime! Also, if you’re looking for crescent rolls, I highly recommend you try my friend Chandice’s gluten-free crescent rolls! Perfect for your holiday dinner! Perfect for weekend mornings or holiday brunch, these gluten-free pull-apart cinnamon rolls are gooey, cinnamon deliciousness drizzled with a cream cheese frosting.

Has anyone tried using Kite Hill DF cream cheese to make the icing?

Merry Christmas 2019! I made these last night for this morning and they were a success. I mixed and proofed and baked this morning, they did fine overnight! I used Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour- I noticed some people in the comments struggled with this- make sure you scoop the flower into your cup with a spoon and then level it with a knife. If you use a packed cup it will be too dry and dense. We also have a dairy allergy so I used earth balance and for the frosting I used coconut cream (that had been overnight refrigerated) and coconut milk instead of cream cheese and milk! They were a hit and my allergenic daughter’s first cinnamon rolls!

Made these last night and I am BEYOND happy with how these came out! We have tried almost a dozen recipes for monkey bread and have had terrible fails. This recipe was my last hope. So happy to say it worked and was a huge hit! I am going to be trying to make these the night before we want them this week so fingers crossed it works! I used bobs red mill 1:1 gluten free flour and skipped the xantham gum!
