Cinnamon Rolls
April 11, 2011
Ingredients:
Dough:
4 1/2 cups bread flour
1 cup milk, warm
1 1/2 tsp. active dry yeast
1 tsp. granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 large egg
Filling:
1 tbsp. cinnamon
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
Icing Sugar Glaze:
1/2 cup icing sugar (confectioners sugar)
1 tbsp milk
1. Put yeast and granulated sugar into the warm milk. Set aside for 5-10 minutes.
2. You need to make sure that the yeast is alive, well and working so your dough can rise better. The sign that your yeast is active is the formation of bubbles at the top of your yeast mixture. It should look like the picture below, if bubbles doesn't form within 5-10 minutes, you need to start over again or get a new pack of yeast and repeat the procedure for a better result .
3. Mix flour and salt into a large bowl.
3. Add the yeast mixture.
4. Add the melted butter. The butter must be cooled already when you add it in the mixture or the yeast will die and your dough will not rise.
5. Add eggs.
6. Mix well, you may need slightly more or less than the exact 4 1/2 cups listed. The dough shouldn't be sticky to the hands.
7. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10-20 minutes of until the dough is soft. Put dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover and place on a warm place and let rise for 2 hours or until it doubles in size.
8. It should look like the picture below. I think i should have used a bigger bowl, i made it rise for about 1 1/2 hours depends maybe on the humidity of the air.
9. Punch down to release air and flatten on a floured surface using a rolling pin. (the little hand that always helps me ^_^)
10. Make the filling: Mix together brown sugar, softened butter and cinnamon and spread on top of the flattened dough. Roll to make a log.
11. Cut dough to what ever size you want. i cut mine at about an inch. Place the cut rolls into baking pans making sure they are placed an inch apart giving them room to rise more. Rise again for another 20 minutes. At this time, preheat oven at 190C.
12. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Glaze by mixing the confectioners sugar and milk together in a small bowl. I put whipped cream on some of the rolls.
