Tips:

  • Use active dry yeast and make sure it's not expired. Fresh yeast can also be used.
  • If you don't have a mixer, you can mix the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it well until it's smooth and elastic.
  • The dough should rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  • When rolling out the dough, make sure it's not too thin, or the cinnamon rolls will be too dry.
  • Be generous with the cinnamon sugar filling, but don't overdo it, or the rolls will be too sweet.
  • Bake the rolls at a high temperature for a short time, so that they're cooked through but still soft and fluffy.
  • If you want to make the rolls ahead of time, you can freeze them unbaked. Just thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
