1
Preheat the oven to 325F.
-
2
Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
-
3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of the rice flour, the arrowroot, xanthan gum, baking powder, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
-
4
Add 1/4 cup of the coconut oil, 1/3 cup of agave nectar, and the vanilla and stir with a rubber spatula until a very thick dry dough forms.
-
5
Gradually add 2/3 cup of the warm water and stir in more if needed until the dough is slightly tacky.
-
6
Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
-
7
Turn the dough out onto the center of a surface dusted with 1/3 cup rice flour.
-
8
Dust the top of the dough and a rolling pin with some of the remaining rice flour and roll out the dough into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle with the short side facing you.
-
9
Using a pastry brush, apply half of the remaining coconut oil all over the surface of the dough.
-
10
In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the agave nectar and 3 tablespoons of the cinnamon.
-
11
Brush the mixture onto the dough, covering it entirely.
-
12
Sprinkle the raisins evenly over the mixture.
-
13
Beginning with the short side closest to you, gently roll the dough onto itself to form a log.
-
14
Using a very sharp knife, cut the log into 1-inch-wide pieces to make 12 rolls.
-
15
Place 6 rolls on each of the prepared baking sheets.
-
16
Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and gently brush the top and sides of each bun with the remaining coconut oil.
-
17
Rotate the baking sheets and bake for 5 minutes more, or until the edges are browned and the centers are slightly soft.
-
18
Let cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle a teaspoon of Vanilla Icing over each bun before serving.
