What You Need For These Cinnamon Rolls:

Gluten Free Oat Flour or Gluten Free Oats

To make oat flour, just pulse your gluten free oats in a food processor until it’s a flour consistency.

Greek Yogurt or Greek Style Vegan Vanilla Yogurt

I like using Kite Hill Greek Style yogurt in this recipe. It has a great texture and flavor. Any vanilla greek yogurt will be great!

Baking Powder

Cinnamon

Small Baking Dish

Recipe Steps:

First, you’ll make the dough and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes. After you do that, you’ll roll out parchment paper and add extra flour to it. Then, roll out the dough on the parchment paper.

Then you’ll make the cinnamon sugar mixture in a small bowl. Sprinkle on the dough.

Ingredients

Cinnamon Roll:

1 1/4 cup oat flour ( I used this brand here)
1 cup vanilla greek yogurt*
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp Apple cider vinegar

Cinnamon sugar mixture:
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Method

Mix all of the cinnamon ingredients together and let it chill 30 minutes.
Then put parchment paper on a flat surface
Add extra oat flour to make sure the dough doesn’t stick.
Roll out the dough, about 1/4 inch thick. I used a rolling pin but I greased it first so the dough didn’t stick. Meaning I just sprayed a little non stick spray on it.
Try to roll it into a rectangle as much as possible!
Then in a small bowl mix the cinnamon sugar mixture
Sprinkle the mixture on the dough, leaving a little room on the edges.
Slice the dough longways into about 5 slices
Then roll them into cinnamon rolls
Add to a small greased baking dish
Bake at 350F for 20 mins
Add melted coconut butter on top and sprinkle a little extra cinnamon!
Makes 5 small cinnamon rolls!
