Time 55m

Yield 9 cinnamon rolls

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 tablespoons packed brown sugar, divided
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 1/2 cups chopped mixed dried fruit (apples, raisins, pears, cherries, apricots)
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold butter, cut into cubes
1 cup milk
icing sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F Butter an 8-inch glass baking dish.
  • FILLING: In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the brown sugar, cinnamon and butter until blended. Set aside.
  • DOUGH: In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Use a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter until crumbly. Pour in milk and stir with a fork until a soft dough forms.
  • Turn out onto a floured surface and knead lightly until smooth. Keeping surface floured, roll out to a 16x10-inch rectangle. Spread filling over top, leaving a 1-inch border along long edge furthest from you; sprinkle fruit over top. Starting at long edge closest to you, roll up jelly-roll style; pinch seam to seal. Using a serrated knife, cut into a 9 slices. Place in prepared dish; sprinkle with remaining brown sugar.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool until just warm. If using, dust with icing sugar just before serving.
  • COOKING TIP: Keeping the butter and milk cold before preparing the dough makes for extra tender and flaky rolls.
  • TIP FOR KIDS: Kids can make the filling, roll the dough and spread the filling and fruit on top. Parents can help younger children roll up the filled dough.

I made these cinnamon rolls with some chocolate chips in the filling. They were so delicious! The chocolate chips added a rich and decadent flavor to the rolls. I will definitely be making these again with chocolate chips.

These cinnamon rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I fixed that by adding some tart fruit to the filling. I used a mixture of blueberries and raspberries, and it was the perfect way to balance out the sweetness of the rolls.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I made these cinnamon rolls with sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter. They turned out just as good! I'm so glad I found a way to enjoy this recipe without having an allergic reaction.
