Awesome cinnamon roll recipe to enjoy not only for breakfast, but anytime. This recipe stands on its own without frosting, but you can frost the rolls with your favorite type of buttercream or cream cheese frosting!

Provided by Asgard Ranch

Time 2h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup low-fat milk
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon sea salt
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar, or to taste
½ cup unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, and cinnamon for dough in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
  • Combine milk, sugar, and salt in a microwaveable bowl; microwave on high in 1-minute increments until very warm, but not hot to the touch, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add milk mixture to the dry ingredients; mix on low speed until combined. Add melted butter; mix until well combined. Mix in eggs until incorporated.
  • Scrape the paddle attachment and switch to the dough hook. Mix in the remaining flour until dough is fairly easy to handle. Turn out into an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place over a bowl of hot (not boiling) water and let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down and turn out onto a floured surface. Roll into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with cinnamon, and finally brown sugar. Roll up the rectangle jelly roll-style and cut into 12 equal parts. Place the rolls flat on a parchment-covered cookie sheet and cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Don't worry if they don't touch, they will continue to rise when baking.
  • While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining softened butter. Serve hot.

MOM'S GOOD CINNAMON ROLLS

I watched mom make these rolls when I was young and have always loved how easy they are to make!

Time 2h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
⅓ cup white sugar
2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 tablespoon salt
6 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 eggs
⅓ cup vegetable oil
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and 1/3 cup sugar in warm water. Stir in salt and 2 cups flour. Beat mixture for 2 minutes. Beat in eggs and oil. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon; set aside.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients ahead of time. This will make the process of making cinnamon buns much smoother and quicker. For example, measure out the flour, sugar, and cinnamon before you start. You can also make the filling ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you're ready to use it.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the cinnamon buns tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop. If you're not sure if the dough is mixed enough, err on the side of caution and mix it a little less.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. The dough needs to rise in a warm place in order to double in size. A good place to let the dough rise is in a turned-off oven with the light turned on.
  • Roll out the dough to the correct thickness. The dough should be rolled out to a rectangle that is about 12x18 inches. If the dough is too thick, the cinnamon buns will be too dense. If the dough is too thin, the cinnamon buns will be too dry.
  • Use plenty of cinnamon sugar filling. Don't be afraid to use a lot of cinnamon sugar filling. The more filling you use, the more delicious the cinnamon buns will be.
  • Bake the cinnamon buns until they're golden brown. The cinnamon buns should be baked for about 20-25 minutes, or until they're golden brown. If the cinnamon buns are underbaked, they'll be doughy. If the cinnamon buns are overbaked, they'll be dry.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon buns are a classic breakfast treat that are sure to please everyone. They're soft, fluffy, and delicious, with a sweet and cinnamony filling. If you follow these tips, you'll be able to make perfect cinnamon buns every time.
