Instructions

In a standing mixer bowl, mix yeast, gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well using a whisk.

Add buttermilk, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. With a hook attachment, mix the dough until smooth.

Add butter and salt. Mix again until smooth.

Transfer the dough to a floured, flat surface. Shape it into a bowl. Grease a mixing bowl, then put the dough into the bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 45-60 minutes or until it has doubled in size.

While waiting for the dough, mix butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Set aside.

Grease an 8-inch loaf pan with butter.

After 45-60 minutes, put the dough on a floured, flat surface. Punch the air out. Roll the dough into an 8-inch-wide rectangle.

Spread the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top of the dough. Roll the dough up and put it in the loaf pan.

Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest again for 45-60 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375F. Mix egg yolk with oil.

After 45-60 minutes, brush the top of the dough with the egg yolk mixture.

Bake the dough for 30-35 minutes. Remove from the pan to a wire rack to cool.

To tell if it's done, use the toothpick test, or check whether the internal temperature is around 200°-205° F.

Making the Glaze:

Mix the icing sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until incorporated.

Drizzle the glaze over the top of the bread.
