Scale
Dough Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast
- 1 cup Warm Milk (110°F / 43°C, dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (melted, plant-based butter for vegan)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Large Egg (or flaxseed/chia seed egg substitute)
- 4 cups All-Purpose Flour (or whole wheat flour, adjust liquid)
Filling and Glaze
- 1 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter (vegan-friendly if needed)
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- Optional: Additional ground cinnamon and granulated sugar for filling sprinkle
Instructions
- Activate Yeast: In a cozy bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes bubbly and frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
- Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with melted butter, salt, egg, and all-purpose flour. Stir until a sticky dough starts to form, ensuring the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Knead Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic, which develops the gluten for a tender texture.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour, for a light and airy roll.
- Prepare Filling: Once risen, roll the dough out into a large rectangle. Spread the Biscoff cookie butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for added sweetness and spice.
- Shape Rolls: Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log, ensuring the filling stays inside. Slice the log into pieces about 1-2 inches thick and arrange them in a greased baking dish without crowding.
- Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again in a warm place for 30-45 minutes until puffy, which makes them soft and fluffy when baked.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown, indicating they’re fully cooked and aromatic.
- Glaze: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before drizzling with a glaze made by mixing powdered sugar and milk. This adds sweetness and a smooth finish to the rolls.
Notes
- Ensure your yeast is fresh and active for proper dough rising.
- Use warm milk to activate yeast effectively but not too hot to kill it.
- Substitute plant-based alternatives to make the recipe vegan.
- Adjust sugar amounts to taste, especially in the glaze.
- To enhance flavor, sprinkle additional cinnamon sugar inside the filling.
- For best results, allow full rising times for fluffy cinnamon rolls.
