The Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls recipe comes with several distinctive features that set it apart from traditional cinnamon roll recipes. The primary peculiarity lies in the use of gluten-free all-purpose flour. This ensures that individuals with gluten sensitivities or those following a gluten-free diet can enjoy the delightful experience of cinnamon rolls without compromising on taste or texture.
