How to Make Amazing Cinnamon Buns Rolls

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm milk (105-115°F), 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 1 large egg, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. Mix with a dough hook or by hand until a soft dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  5. While the dough is rising, prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  6. Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (approximately 18x12 inches).
  7. Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough.
  8. Tightly roll the dough up from the long side into a log.
  9. Cut the log into 12 equal slices.
  10. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  11. Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  12. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  13. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  14. While still warm, brush with a glaze (optional: cream cheese glaze or simple icing).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
