Ingredients

• 2.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Sugar
• 1 packet Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Warm water
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cup Butter, melted
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Raisins
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it’s foamy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy, then add the melted butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Step 4

Add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients followed by the wet ingredients. Stir until a sticky dough forms.

Step 5

Fold in the raisins and ground cinnamon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm location for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 8

Once the dough has risen, punch it down lightly and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 15 minutes.

Step 10

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 11

Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
