HOW TO MAKE CINNAMON ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY



How to Make Cinnamon Rolls Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: whole milk, sugar, unsalted butter, active dry yeast, all-purpose flour, baking powder, kosher salt, light brown sugar, unsalted butter, ground cinnamon, cream cheese, unsalted butter, milk, vanilla extract, powdered sugar

Provided by Gwenaelle Le Cochennec

Categories     Breakfast

Time 3h10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups whole milk, warm to the touch
½ cup sugar
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
¾ cup light brown sugar
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
4 oz cream cheese, softened and cubed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, sugar, and melted butter. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (37-43˚C). If any warmer, allow to cool slightly.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the milk mixture, stir, and let sit in a warm place for about 10 minutes until the yeast has bloomed.
  • Add 4 cups (500 g) of flour to the milk mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined.
  • Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, until nearly doubled in size.
  • Generously butter 2 9-inch (23 cm) round baking pans and set aside.
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Mix well, then set aside.
  • Remove the plastic wrap from the dough and add the remaining cup of flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a clean surface. Leave a bit of flour nearby to use as needed, but try not to incorporate too much.
  • Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, adding more flour as necessary, until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface or your hands. The dough should be very smooth and spring back when poked.
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½-inch (1 cm) thick. Fix the corners with a bench scraper or a spatula to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
  • Starting from one short end, roll up the dough into a log and pinch the seam closed. Place seam-side down. Trim any uneven ends.
  • Using unflavored dental floss, cut the log into evenly pieces, about 1½ inches (8cm) thick. Place the cinnamon rolls in the prepared pans, 1 in the center and about 5 around the sides. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place for 35-45 minutes, until expanded by about half of their original volume. If you're saving the cinnamon rolls for later, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for up 3 months.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
  • While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and whisk until homogenous and runny.
  • When the cinnamon rolls are finished, let cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Drizzle the frosting over the cinnamon rolls, using the back of a spoon to spread if desired.
  • Enjoy!

Grandmom's Cinnamon Rolls image

Kids and adults crave grandma's cinnamon rolls!

Provided by Tana

Time 2h5m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup milk
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1 (.25 ounce) package yeast
¼ cup warm water
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup white sugar
½ cup melted butter
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons water, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Prepare dough: Heat milk in a saucepan over medium heat until just about to boil, 3 to 4 minutes. Add sugar, shortening, and salt; remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm, about 10 minutes.
  • While the milk mixture is cooling, sprinkle yeast over water and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Pour lukewarm milk mixture into a bowl; add 1 cup flour and beat well. Beat in yeast mixture and egg. Gradually beat in remaining 2 1/2 cups flour. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Test by pressing a finger into the dough; a fingerprint should stay.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch square baking pans.
  • Prepare filling: Mix sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon together in a bowl.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured board and divide in half. Roll one piece into a 16x8-inch rectangle. Spread 1/2 of the filling over top. Start at the long edge of the rectangle and roll up as for a jelly roll. Cut into eight 1-inch slices and place cut-sides down into one prepared baking pan. Repeat with remaining rectangle.
  • Bake in the oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare frosting by mixing confectioners' sugar and water together in a bowl.
  • Remove rolls from the oven. Transfer to a large serving plate and spread frosting over top.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your cinnamon tea rolls. Look for fresh yeast, bread flour, and unsalted butter.
  • Proof the yeast: Proofing the yeast is essential for making sure your cinnamon tea rolls rise properly. Proof the yeast in a warm place for 5-10 minutes, or until it is foamy and bubbly.
  • Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten, which gives the cinnamon tea rolls their characteristic chewy texture. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise twice: The first rise gives the dough a chance to double in size. The second rise gives the dough a chance to proof, which helps to develop the flavor and texture. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Roll the dough out evenly: When you roll out the dough, be sure to do it evenly so that the cinnamon tea rolls are all the same size. This will help them to bake evenly.
  • Spread the filling evenly: When you spread the filling on the dough, be sure to do it evenly so that each cinnamon tea roll has the same amount of filling. This will help to ensure that they all taste the same.
  • Bake the cinnamon tea rolls at the right temperature: The cinnamon tea rolls should be baked at a temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Baking them at the right temperature will help to ensure that they are cooked through without being overcooked.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon tea rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can make cinnamon tea rolls that are sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give cinnamon tea rolls a try!
