Oven Temp: 200°C (390°F)
Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free bread mix
- ⅔ cup whipping cream
- 1–3 tbsp water (as needed)
- 2 tbsp butter, softened
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp pine nuts, chopped
- Milk (for brushing)
- Rice flour (for dusting)
Directions
- Prepare the Dough:
- In a bowl, mix gluten-free bread mix and whipping cream until just combined.
- If too crumbly, add water 1 tbsp at a time until a soft, rollable dough forms.
- Roll the Dough:
- Sandwich dough between two sheets of nonstick baking paper.
- Roll into a thin rectangle (~½ inch thick).
- Make the Filling:
- Cream together butter, honey, and cinnamon.
- If too thick, warm slightly in a water bath (do not melt completely).
- Spread evenly over dough using a knife or fingers.
- Sprinkle with chopped pine nuts.
- Shape & Cut:
- Carefully roll dough into a tight log.
- If filling is runny, wrap in cling film and chill for 10 minutes.
- Dust a sharp knife with rice flour and slice into 14 even rolls.
- Bake:
- Place rolls close together on a parchment-lined tray (helps rising).
- Brush tops with milk.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until golden.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Key Tips:
- Dough Texture: Should be soft but not sticky. Adjust with water sparingly.
- Filling Consistency: Aim for spreadable, not liquid. Chill if needed before cutting.
- Storage: Best fresh, but can be reheated in a warm oven.
