Oh My! Breakfast Hit!

We love cinnamon rolls. For awhile it was our Sunday morning breakfast tradition, but I soon grew tired of Saturday evening kneading and rising that cinnamon rolls require. Until I found this recipe for dough that is made in the bread machine. No more kneading. Just rolling, cutting and 30 minutes of rising. Then, pop them in the refrigerator until morning. Bake, ice, and impress the family!

I like to do the preparation the night before and keep the rolls in the refrigerator and bake them in the morning. 

This recipe is SO easy. If you love cinnamon rolls, you will not be disappointed with this one!




Bread Machine Cinnamon Rolls

1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. water
2 Tbsp butter
3/4 tsp salt
3 c. flour
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
1/4 c. white sugar
1 egg

In a saucepan, heat the milk, water and butter until very warm. Place milk mixture and remaining ingredients in bread machine pan and select the dough cycle. Press start and let your machine do the work!!!

3 Tbsp butter, softened
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/3 c. white sugar

Once dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the bread machine and punch down. On a floured surface, roll into a large rectangle. Smear with the softened butter. Combine the cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle over rectangle. 

Roll the dough into a log, starting with the long side. Cut into 12 slices. Place the rolls into a greased 9x13 baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until doubled.

Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes at 375 degrees. Remove and cool for 10 minutes.

1 c. powdered sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp butter, melted
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 Tbsp milk

Whisk together the above ingredients and spread over rolls.
