✨BIG✨ Cinnamon Rolls
You’re going to LOVE these ! Add as much frosting as you want. I added more after they cooked a tiny bit more.. 😁🍋
✨WARNING: These take a while but are well worth it!✨
- [ ] 3/4 cup whole milk
- [ ] .025 oz package active dry yeast
- [ ] 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- [ ] 4 tablespoons butter at room temperature
- [ ] 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- [ ] 1 large egg
- [ ] 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- [ ] 1 3/4 cups bread flour
- [ ] 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
- [ ] 1/2 tsp. salt
Add warm milk, yeast and granulated sugar. Mix for a few seconds and let then let it sit for 5-10 minutes.
Add butter, light brown sugar, egg and vanilla extract and then mix on a medium speed until combined for about 60 seconds.
In a different bowl, combine flours and salt. Add your dry ingredients into your mixer and mix at a low speed until dough forms.
If you’re using a mixer, switch to your dough hook and at a medium speed, knead for about 6 minutes.
Put your dough into a large, greased bowl. Cover your bowl with plastic wrap or top with a towel. Leave dough to proof for 45 min or until it has doubled in size.
Put dough on a floured surface and gently shape it into a rectangle. Sprinkle some additional flour on top and roll out your dough to a 9 inch x 14 inch rectangle.
Spread your butter across the top of your dough(I brushed melted butter on and then I softened some and spread it on the top evenly with a butter knife) and then put your cinnamon sugar mixture evenly on top. Then press your sugar mixture into your butter a little bit.
Tightly roll your dough forming a 14 inch log. Use a sharp knife to cut 9 rolls about 1 1/2 inch thick.
Put your cinnamon rolls into a lightly greased square pan.
Cover your pan with plastic wrap or top with a towel and let your rolls rise a second time until they are fluffy and touching one another. About 45 minuets
set your oven to 350* F and bake your cinnamon rolls for about 25 minutes until they are lightly golden brown.
I then like to put my frosting on while it’s warm but then add a little more before eaten ✨✨🍋🍋 ENJOY!
