BEST CINNAMON ROLLS



Best Cinnamon Rolls image

When I married him, I discovered that my husband's family has the best cinnamon roll recipe! I asked his mom how to make homemade cinnamon rolls, and I've been making them ever since. Serve them with scrambled eggs, and you have a filling breakfast. As a variation, you can replace the filling with a mixture of raisins and pecans. -Shenai Fisher, Topeka, Kansas

Some folks use Craisins in place of raisins as done in the Banbury Tart recipe. It is also great as a filling for cinnamon rolls. I have included three filling combinations - and I will vouch for the Orange-Craisin combination. Hope these are useful. Cinnamon Roll Fillings Basic Cinnamon

Time 1h15m

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

300g self-raising flour
2 tbsp caster sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
70g butter, melted, plus extra for greasing
2 egg yolks
130ml milk, plus extra for glazing
1 tsp ground cinnamon
55g light brown soft sugar
2 tbsp caster sugar
40g butter, melted
60g icing sugar
1 tbsp cream cheese, softened
½ tbsp butter, softened
½ tsp vanilla essence

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Grease a 20cm loose-bottomed cake tin and line the bottom with baking parchment. Mix the flour, caster sugar and cinnamon together with a pinch of salt in a bowl. Whisk the butter, egg yolks and milk together and combine with the dry ingredients to make a soft dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and roll out to a rectangle, about 30 x 25cm.
  • Mix the filling ingredients together. Spread evenly over the dough then roll it up lengthways, like a Swiss roll, to form a log. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 even-sized slices and pack into the prepared tin. Brush gently with extra milk and bake for 30-35 mins or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 mins before removing from the tin.
  • Sift the icing sugar into a large bowl and make a well in the centre. Place the cream cheese and butter in the centre, pour over 2 tbsp boiling water, and stir to mix. Add a little more water until you have a drizzly consistency. Stir in the vanilla essence, then drizzle the icing over the rolls. Serve warm or cold.
