🍥 Classic Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients:
For the dough:
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (7 g) instant yeast
- ½ cup milk, warm
- ¼ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 large egg
For the filling:
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup butter, softened
For the icing:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Make the dough
- In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add melted butter, egg, salt, and flour. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 5–7 minutes).
- Cover and let rise 1–2 hours, until doubled in size.
- Prepare the filling
- Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
- Roll out dough into a rectangle (~12×16 inches). Spread softened butter over the surface, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly.
- Roll and cut
- Roll dough tightly into a log from the long edge.
- Cut into 12 equal pieces and place in a greased baking dish.
- Second rise
- Cover and let rolls rise 30–45 minutes until puffy.
- Bake
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake rolls for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
- Glaze
- Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to make icing. Drizzle over warm rolls.
✨ Tips:
- For extra gooey rolls, brush melted butter on top before baking.
- Add chopped nuts or raisins for variation.
- For a quicker version, use store-bought crescent roll dough—just spread cinnamon sugar and bake.
