Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

For the Filling

  • Butter (for spreading)
  • Cinnamon sugar (mix of cinnamon and sugar for sprinkling)

For the Icing

  • Powdered sugar
  • Milk (to mix with powdered sugar for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a bowl, combine warm milk and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes until it becomes foamy, indicating that the yeast is active.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Add the melted butter, eggs, and the foamy yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a dough forms.
  4. Knead Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic, which helps develop the gluten for a tender roll.
  5. First Rise: Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl. Cover it with a clean towel or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
  6. Shape Rolls: After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Spread it evenly with butter and sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar.
  7. Roll and Cut: Roll the dough tightly from one edge to the other to form a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss for clean cuts.
  8. Second Rise: Arrange the rolls in a greased baking pan, cover them, and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes until puffy.
  9. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for approximately 25 minutes or until they are golden brown on top.
  10. Prepare Icing and Serve: While the rolls bake, mix powdered sugar with milk until you achieve a smooth, drizzleable consistency. Once the rolls are warm from the oven, drizzle the icing over them to finish.

Notes

  • Serving these cinnamon rolls warm enhances their flavor and texture.
  • Store leftover rolls in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
  • You can reheat the rolls briefly in the microwave before serving to restore softness.
