The Holy Grail of Gluten-Free Baking
If you ask any celiac what they miss most, Cinnamon Rolls are almost always in the top three.
The problem with most GF cinnamon roll recipes is that they result in dense, heavy biscuits with cinnamon in the middle. They don't have that iconic fluffy, towering, rip-apart bakery texture.
To achieve that height and fluffiness without gluten, you have to beat the hell out of the dough.

Why You Must Use a Stand Mixer
Gluten-free doughs require heavy aeration to give the yeast a fighting chance to lift the starches. If you try to mix this magnificent dough by hand, it will be dense.
