Como fazer Slightly Better For You Cinnamon Rolls

  1. **Make the Dough:** In a microwave-safe measuring cup, combine 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter. Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until butter is melted and milk is warm.
  2. Stir in 1/2 cup plain yogurt until smooth.
  3. Pour the milk mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  4. Mix well with a wooden spoon or electric mixer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Gradually add 2 1/2 - 3 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until a sticky dough forms.
  6. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5-10 minutes.
  7. Lightly oil a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat.
  8. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place for 90 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  9. **Prepare the Filling:** In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon. Mix well.
  10. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  11. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle (approximately the size of a cookie sheet).
  12. Brush the dough with 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  13. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the melted butter.
  14. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log.
  15. Pinch the seam to seal.
  16. Cut the log into 12 (3/4-inch) slices. Place the slices cut-side down in the prepared pan.
  17. **First Rise (Option 1):** Cover the pan and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.
  18. **First Rise (Option 2):** Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  19. **Second Rise:** (If using Option 2) Remove from refrigerator and let rise in a warm spot for 35-40 minutes to come to room temperature and finish rising.
  20. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  21. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  22. Remove from oven and immediately invert onto a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.
  23. Place right side up on a serving dish.
  24. **Make the Glaze:** In a mixer, beat together 4 ounces (1/2 package) room-temperature cream cheese and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) softened unsalted butter until smooth.
  25. Gradually add 2 cups powdered sugar on low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium and mix until smooth.
  26. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1-2 tablespoons milk, mixing until smooth and creamy.
  27. Spread the glaze over the warm rolls and serve immediately!
