Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan
2 cups whole milk, warm to the touch
½ cup granulated sugar
1 pack active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
¾ cup butter, softened
¾ cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Generously butter a 1-inch (2.5 cm) cast-iron skillet or cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (40˚C). If hotter, allow to cool slightly before proceeding.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the warm mixture and let sit for 1 minute. Add 4 cups of the flour to the milk mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, the dough should have nearly doubled in size. Remove the towel and add an additional ¾ cup (95 grams) of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a well-floured surface.
  • Knead the dough lightly, adding additional flour as necessary, until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface.
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½ inch (1.5 cm) thick. Fix corners to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, light brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Spread the filling mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, spreading right to the edges.
  • Using a pizza cutter, make 3 horizontal cuts to divide the dough into 4 long, evenly-sized strips. Starting from the top, roll the first strip up from right to left. Take the first roll and place it on top of the next strip, starting again on the right side and rolling up right to left, building on the first. Continue with the remaining strips until you have a giant cinnamon roll.
  • Place the giant cinnamon roll in the prepared skillet or cake pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot and leave to rise for 30 minutes. The cinnamon roll should expand to the edges of the pan during this time.
  • Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • Uncover the cinnamon roll and bake for 45 minutes. Cover the roll with foil to prevent the outside from burning, and bake for an additional 35 minutes.
  • While the cinnamon roll is baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, butter, milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Remove the cinnamon roll from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. Once cool, remove from the pan and drizzle the frosting over the roll before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Time 1h

Yield 12 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, warmed (110° to 115°)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
3 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg, room temperature, beaten
3 tablespoons butter, melted

1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water and whipping cream until foamy. In another bowl, combine sugar and salt; add 3 cups flour, yeast mixture, egg and melted butter. Stir until moistened. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough., Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 3-4 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes., Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll into a 15x12-in. rectangle. Spread softened butter over dough. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Using a pizza cutter, cut into 2-in.-wide strips. Roll up 1 strip and place in the center of a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate; wrap remaining strips around center to form 1 giant roll. Cover with greased foil; let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°., Bake until golden brown, 30-40 minutes. If dough starts browning too quickly, cover lightly with foil. Cool on a wire rack., To prepare topping, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat until it turns light amber. Add butter, stirring vigorously. Remove from heat; add cream while continuing to stir vigorously. Cool slightly. Pour 3/4 cup sauce over warm roll; sprinkle with salt. Serve with remaining sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blood oranges for the glaze to get the best flavor.
  • If you don't have blood oranges, you can substitute regular oranges, but the glaze will not be as flavorful.
  • Make sure the cinnamon roll dough is well-chilled before rolling and baking. This will help the roll keep its shape and prevent it from spreading too much.
  • Be generous with the cinnamon sugar filling. This is what gives the cinnamon roll its classic flavor.
  • Bake the cinnamon roll until it is golden brown and cooked through. If you insert a toothpick into the center of the roll, it should come out clean.
  • Let the cinnamon roll cool slightly before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.

Conclusion:

This giant cinnamon roll with blood orange glaze is a delicious and impressive treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its tender, fluffy dough, gooey cinnamon sugar filling, and tangy blood orange glaze, this cinnamon roll is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
