Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Recipe by Dr. Lynne RobinsonCuisine: Sweet, Southern, Breakfast, Dessert

Ingredients

  • Dough

  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup warm milk (start with 1/2 to activate the yeast)

  • 1 pack active yeast

  • 1 cup all purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup coconut flour

  • 1/4 cup almond flour

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1 egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

  • 1/4 cup melted butter

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • Filling

  • 1 cup dark brown sugar

  • 3 tablespoons softened butter

  • Lots of cinnamon

  • Icing

  • 1 cup confectioners sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

  • 2 maybe 3 tablespoons whole milk

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 (Viking) or 375 (regular oven).
  • Mix the warm milk with the yeast and let sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients together.
  • Add the eggs, vanilla, and milk to the dry ingredients. It should form a pliable dough. If it is too loose, add more flour of your choice.
  • Roll out the dough on parchment paper. Form a long horizontal shape.
  • Mix together the filling ingredients and spread evenly across the dough.
  • Take one end of the dough and roll it up until the dough is a tubular log.
  • Cut the log into 6 even sections.
  • Cover the dish with a towl and let the rolls sit in a warm place until they rise (about 20 minutes).
  • Place cinnamon rolls in a casserole dish and bake for about 20 minutes.

Notes

  • The Power thing drink in the picture is not mine. It is my bf’s whose diet, well…I’ll leave it at that.
  • You do not have to use the alternative flours. Coconut flour is very absorbent, so if you replace that, you need to probably double the amount of the chosen flour.
  • You want a pliable dough. So add flour as you need to to make it where you can roll it into a log.
