Receta Homemade Cinnamon Rolls Recipe
My son loves Cinnamon Rolls more
than anything else! If I ask him what I should make for teatime, the first
answer I get is Cinnamon Rolls and the second Doughnuts! He will be very happy
if I gave him cinnamon rolls every day and it will fetch me lots and lots of
bear hugs and kisses in return :D.... I make these for him at least once a month
and I have tried several recipes till date.... I have also posted an eggless version earlier... This particular recipe I have been using for the last one year
since Ria posted it.... I took step by step pictures last summer when I made these
in Kerala.... but never got a chance to take the final product’s picture..... finally I took these pictures when I made it last week...

Preparation time ~ 20 mints
Ready in ~ 3 to 3 ½ hours
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry
- yeast
- 3 tablespoons softened
- butter
- 3/4 teaspoon ground
- cinnamon
- 1 cup confectioners'/
- powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons melted
- butter
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
- extract
Method:
In a saucepan, heat 1/2
cup milk, water, and 2 tablespoons butter until warm. Stir in yeast and keep
aside for 5 minutes.
Break the egg into the
yeast mixture and mix well.
In a large bowl, mix
together the dry ingredients (flour, sugar and salt), pour the milk-yeast-egg mixture,
and knead to form smooth dough.
Place in a lightly greased bowl
and leave in a warm place to rise for about 1 hour.
Punch down the dough and on a floured surface, roll it into a large rectangle.
Smear with the softened
butter.
Combine the cinnamon and
1/3 cup sugar. Sprinkle over the rectangle.
Roll the dough up into a
log starting at the long side. Cut into 12 slices. Place the rolls cut side
down into a 9x13-inch greased baking pan. Cover, and let rise in a warm place
until almost doubled, about 30 minutes.
Preheat an oven to 375
degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25
minutes. Remove and allow to cool 10 minutes.
Meanwhile make the
frosting by combining the confectioners' sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract,
and milk into a thick frosting; Spread frosting over baked warm rolls.
Enjoy your warm homemade Cinnamon
Rolls!
Notes:
I felt the amount of
cinnamon and sugar in the filling was not enough and so I always double the
amount in the filling (or may be our taste buds are too sweet :D).
You can use brown sugar
for filling if you like.
If you like to have
raisins and nuts in your rolls you can add 1/3 cup each of raisins and walnuts, like in the original recipe.
Since I am
making it for my son I prefer smaller rolls; so instead of cutting the dough
into 12 pieces I cut them to 24- 30 pieces.
It’s best served warm,
Microwave it for a few seconds before serving and my little one loves it topped
with some chocolate sauce.
