How to make Cinnamon Rolls

Prepare the Dough

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, mix warm milk, melted butter, and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.

  2. Step 2

    Add egg and salt, and gradually mix in the flour to form a dough.

  3. Step 3

    Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. Step 4

    Place the dough in a lightly-oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Prepare the Filling

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon.

Assembly

  1. Step 1

  3. Step 3

    Spread softened butter over the dough and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly on top.

  4. Step 4

    Starting from one of the longer edges, roll the dough into a tight log and cut it into 12 equal rolls.

Baking

  1. Step 1

    Place rolls in a greased baking pan.

  2. Step 2

    Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Prepare the Glaze
