Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Make the dough the night before so its ready in the morning.  The best part--no knead.  This recipe comes from Budget Bytes.

Ingredients:

Dough
  • 2.5 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 package instant or bread machine yeast
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1.5 cups water
Filing:
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
Icing:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp milk
The night before make the dough. Combine all dough dry ingredients.  Add one cup of room temperature water. Stir until fully absorbed. Add more water, a little at a time, until there is no dry flour left in the bowl.  Form one ball of dough.  Cover and put in fridge over night.

In morning, take dough out and let it warm to room temperate.  Sprinkle it with flour. Stretch/roll it out into rectangle (11 X 14). (roll, add flour, roll, add flour).

Make filling by melting butter in microwave and combine with other ingredients.  Spread this over stretched dough.  Roll up dough (like jelly roll) tightly.  Cut the rolled log into 10-12 slices. Put slices in sprayed (non-stick) baking dish.  Allow the rolls to rise for 1 hr (or until doubled). 

Oven 425. 30 min.  Top with icing made by combining icing ingredients and stirring until smooth.
