Homemade Cinnamon Rolls--Yum!

Last night we made homemade cinnamon rolls. I made the dough with my bread maker then the rest I did by hand. Of course, there are pictures! : )

Here is the recipe that I used...

For the dough (in a bread maker):

6 oz (or 3/4 cup) Milk (heated to to 90-100 degrees)

1 egg

3 cups Bread Flour

3 T. Sugar

1/2 t. Salt

4 T. Butter or Margarine

2 t. Active Dry Yeast or 1 1/2 t. Bread Machine/Fast Rise Yeast

For the filling:
1/3 cup Butter or Margarine, melted
1/3 cup Sugar
2 t. Ground Cinnamon
1/2 t. Ground Nutmeg, optional
1/2 cup Chopped Nuts, optional

Powdered Sugar Icing:

1 cup Powdered Sugar

1-2 T. Milk

1/2 t. Vanilla

Set the bread maker on DOUGH setting. When finished, knead the dough for about 1 minuted, then lest rest for 15 minutes.

Roll dough into a rectangle, about 15 x 10 inches. Spread the filling mixture over dough to within 1 inch of edges. Roll dough up tightly on long side. Press edges to seal and form into a 12 in long, evenly shaped roll. With a knife, cut roll into 1-inch pieces. Place rolls into a greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place until double in size, about 30-45 minutes.

Bake in preheated 375 degree ofen for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on rack for 10-15 minutes, then drizzle with powder sugar icing.


Oops--a couple were eaten before I could get a picture!! : )
