Servings: 1 roll
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup warm water (105°F-113°F)
- 1/2 tsp yeast
- 1 tsp brown sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (plus 1 tbsp, if needed)
- 1/4 tsp salt
Filling
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 1/2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4-1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tbsp heavy cream
Icing
- 1 tbsp butter, softened
- 6 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1-2 tsp milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the warm water, yeast and brown sugar. Set aside, letting it get nice and bubbly.
- Once the mixture is bubbly and foamy, add in the flour and salt. Stir until a shaggy dough forms and then knead by hand for 5 minutes. If the dough is extremely sticky, you can add up to 1 tbsp extra flour. You’ll want to keep the dough quite soft, though.
- Cover the dough and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
- After the dough has rested, pull and roll the dough into a long 2 inch by 12 inch rectangle.
- Spread the softened butter onto the rolled out dough.
- Sprinkle and spread the brown sugar onto the buttered dough and then sprinkle the cinnamon onto the brown sugar, pressing the cinnamon and sugar layer into the buttered dough.
- Roll up the strip of dough into a coil to make the cinnamon roll.
- Place in an oven safe dish or ramekin coated with non-stick spray.
- Drizzle the heavy cream over the cinnamon roll and then cover with plastic wrap.
- Set it in a warm place for 15 minutes, letting the heavy cream soak in and the cinnamon roll rise.
- While the cinnamon roll is rising for 15 minutes, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Once preheated, bake the cinnamon roll for 15-17 minutes or until it is beginning to turn golden brown.
- While the cinnamon roll is baking, make the icing by combining all ingredients until smooth. Adjust the thickness by adding more milk, if needed.
- Once the cinnamon roll comes out of the oven, ice generously and enjoy.
