Evan had his first cinnamon rolls at Nana’s house.  He LOVED them!  When I told him we were going to have a Mommy weekend the only thing he specifically asked to do was to make cinnamon rolls.  I’ve never tried to make them so I was a little worried but I figured “how hard can it be?”

Here’s the recipe all in one place.  Step by step instructions with pictures is below.

Course: Baking
Cuisine: American/Canadian
Servings: 8
Calories: 501kcal
Author: Merry adapted from Allrecipes.com

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • .25 oz packet quick rise yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup butter softened

Instructions

  • Heat milk in a small sauce pan until it starts to bubble. Remove from heat and add butter. Cool to lukewarm.
  • In a large bowl mix the whole wheat flour, 3/4 cup of the all purpose flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add the milk mixture, egg and water. Mix well. Add remaining flour and mix well.
  • Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Cover with a damp towel and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
  • Mix brown sugar, cinnamon and butter in a small bowl.
  • Prepare a 11X13 pan by coating the bottom and sides with butter. Leave a bit of extra butter in the bottom if you want extra gooey cinnamon-y goodness on the bottom.
  • Roll out the dough into a 12X9 rectangle. Spread butter mixture evenly across the dough.
  • Roll up and pinch the seam to seal. Cut into 12 equal rolls. Place in the prepared pan, cover and let rise until doubled (usually around 30 mins).
  • Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Recipe Notes: So my rolls didn’t really rise like they were supposed to.  Thankfully when I baked them they poofed up wonderfully.  These turned out so well.  YUMMY!
