Ingredients

• 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1.5 cups fresh blueberries
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking dish lightly with butter or use a non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and xanthan gum. Stir thoroughly to ensure even distribution.

Step 3

In another bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and sugar until light and fluffy. You can use a hand mixer or stand mixer for this step.

Step 4

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed butter and sugar mixture until well combined.

Step 5

Alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined and smooth.

Step 6

Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter, taking care not to crush them.

Step 7

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside for the filling.

Step 8

Turn the batter out into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture over the top.

Step 9

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the roll comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the blueberry roll to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
