Gluten-Free Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

There’s nothing quite like waking up to the smell of fresh baked cinnamon rolls on a chilly fall morning (even better if you insert a cozy blanket and a cup of coffee into the mix!)

This re-vamp recipe of my Gluten-Free, Vegan Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls is fluffier than ever before and combines pumpkin, a fall favorite, with sweet cinnamon sugar goodness.

Homemade cinnamon rolls may sound intimidating, but trust me when I say - they are SO easy to make and in no time at all, you will have hot pumpkin cinnamon rolls fresh out of the oven! Drizzle them with my quick icing recipe and enjoy!
