Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls

Posted in Gluten Free, and Homemaking

Cinnamon rolls (from a can) were a regular part of our weekend breakfast menu before we switched to a gluten free diet, and Munchkin has dearly missed those cinnamon rolls. I’ve made a few batches of cinnamon rolls, but they were just okay. Today, as I made these cinnamon rolls, my hopes began to rise as the rolls rose. The smells from the oven filled the air.
