Cinnamon Orange and Cardamom Pull-Apart Rolls. O-M-G! As good as the best you used to enjoy, but it’s Chebe, it’s gluten free. By nature.
- 1 package Chebe All Purpose or Original Mix
- 1/4 cup millet flour
- 2 tsp instant dry yeast
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 4 Tbsp milk or milk substitute, room temperature or slightly warmed
- 2 Tbsp melted butter or oil
- 4 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- Zest of one half orange
- 2 Tbsp melted butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/8 tsp ground cardamom
- Pinch of salt
- 3-4 tsp juice from the orange
-
Blend together the Chebe mix, millet flour, yeast and sugar.
-
Mix in the egg, milk and butter. Blend well with a fork until clumpy.
-
Continue mixing with your hands. Blend until the dough is smooth.
-
Place the dough ball in a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Set aside to rest for one hour. (Try to put it in a warmer part of the kitchen - near the oven if it is being used.)
-
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling and the icing.
-
Preheat the oven to 375F after the hour has passed.
-
Knead the dough to remove the gases.
-
Dust a clean working surface with millet flour. With a rolling pin, roll the dough into a rectangle about 14” x 8”.
-
Brush the melted butter over the surface being careful not to cover the edges (1/2”) of the rectangle.
-
Spread the brown sugar mixture evenly over the butter.
-
From the broad end, gently and loosely roll the edge of the rectangle toward you until it is a log. Do not roll it tightly.
-
Seal the edge of the dough by rubbing a little warm water on it. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
-
Grease a round 8” or 9” baking dish. Loosely place the pieces of log in the pan so that they are lightly touching each other.
-
Place in oven for about 25 minutes. Keep an eye on them during the last five.
-
Remove from the oven when done. Let cool about 10 minutes, and then drizzle the icing over the top. Enjoy thoroughly. (Will keep overnight in an air-tight container at room temperature.)
-
With a fork, blend well the brown sugar, cinnamon, cardamom and zest.
-
Keep the melted butter on the side.
-
Add cardamom, salt and juice to powdered sugar. Stir well and set aside. (It should be thick. One tsp. of water may be added if necessary.)
