CINNAMON ROLLS
1 pkg or 2 1/2 teas. yeast
1 c water, warm
1/4 c powdered milk or buttermilk
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c cooking oil
1 egg
4 c self-rising flour
CINNAMON ROLL FILLING
1 c sugar
3 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 c finely chopped pecans (optional)
1/2 - 1 stick butter, room temperature
CONFECTIONER'S SUGAR GLAZE
2 c confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 tsp vanilla
3-4 tsp warm water

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve the yeast in 1 cup of WARM water. Allow to sit about 5 minutes. Stir to make sure all of the yeast is dissolved.
  • 2. In a large bowl, add the yeast mixture to the powered milk, sugar, oil and egg.
  • 3. Slowly add in 1 1/2 cups flour and work in until smooth. Gradually add 2 - 2 1/2 cups more flour until you get the dough to a good working consistency so that it is easy to handle. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • 4. Knead the dough onto a floured surface until smooth. Put dough in a large bowl with lightly oiled sides. Cover and set in a warm place. Allow to rise until the dough has doubled in size.
  • 5. On a floured surface, knead the dough until smooth and then roll it out into a large rectangle. Generously spread the room temperature butter over the top of the rectangle of dough.
  • 6. In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and the sugar and sprinkle evenly over the top of the buttered dough.
  • 7. Sprinkle the chopped pecan pieces evenly over the sugar-cinnamon mixture. (OPTIONAL)
  • 8. Beginning at the widest side, roll up as evenly and tightly as possible. Cut into rolls at 1 inch intervals with kitchen twine.
  • 9. Place on a greased cookie sheet or baking dish. Cover and set in a warm, dry place until doubled in size.
  • 10. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes. Remove from the oven to begin to cool. While still warm , drizzle with the glaze.
  • 11. TO PREPARE THE GLAZE: In a small mixing bowl, add vanilla to the sifted confectioner's sugar. VERY SLOWLY add warm water a teaspoon at a time until the mixture gets to a consistency to allow you to drizzle it over the warm cinnamon rolls. If you get it too thin, simply add more sugar.

I am new to the from scratch baking game and I found this recipe some time ago. I've only made it a couple times, but both times they came out perfect! If a fumbling beginner like me can make these - and trust, me, I am a major fumbler - anyone can!

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

FOR ROLLS
1 pkg active dry yeast (1/4) oz
1 c milk
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/3 c butter (5 1/3) tbsp
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
4 c flour
FILLING
1 c brown sugar
2 1/2 Tbsp cinnamon
1/3 c butter (5 1/3 tbsp)
FROSTING
1 stick butter (8 tbsp)
1 1/2 c powdered sugar
1/4 c cream cheese
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/8 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. Heat milk to approx 115 degrees. dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl.
  • 2. Add sugar,butter, salt, eggs, and flour, mix well. BE SURE TO USE VERY SOFT BUTTER!
  • 3. Turn oven to warm. Knead the dough into a large ball, using your hands dusted lightly with flour. Be sure to knead until ball is firm and elastic.
  • 4. Turn off and place the bowl in warm oven. Let rise approx 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  • 5. Remove dough from oven, and reheat oven on warm setting. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface, until it is approx 21 inches long by 16 inches wide. It should be approx 1/4 thick.
  • 6. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread butter over rolled dough, leaving 1/4 of long edge clean. Sprinkle brown sugar mixture over rolled dough. Roll lightly with rolling pin to press brown sugar mixture into the butter.
  • 7. Roll long side, being sure to roll tightly. Pinch edge to roll to prevent it from falling apart.
  • 8. Cut the dough into 1 3/4 inch slices, and place in a lightly greased baking pan. ( I like to grease with butter, and then sprinkle a tiny bit of brown sugar in the bottom.)
  • 9. Turn off oven once again and return pans for a second rise. Allow to rise approx 1 hour. Remove from oven while preheating to 400. Bake for 10 - 15 minutes, until golden brown.
  • 10. While rolls are baking, prepare frosting by mixing all ingredients together in a bowl with an electric mixer.
  • 11. Remove rolls from oven and frost while still warm.
