Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

 Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or 1/3 cup canola
  • 1/4-1/3 cup sugar 
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 3/4 cups all purpose flour 
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons yeast ( I  use fleischman's yeast)

Directions:


  1. Place all ingredients in order recommended by your bread machine manufacturer if you are using a bread machine... ( I use to use a bread machine but now I do it mostly by hand).
  2. Select dough cycle and start machine.
  3. I preheat my oven to 100°F and turn off.
  4. When dough cycle is complete remove from machine and proceed to roll out into a rectangular piece of dough and then spread the filling onto the dough and roll up. Then slice into pieces. ( I use dental floss or a piece of thread to cut the pieces nicely.
     Filling
    • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened( I use butter)
    • 1 cup brown sugar
    • 1/2 cup sugar
    • 3 tablespoons cinnamon  
    After you have added your filling and cut it into pieces and place in a greased pan..( I use a really big iron skillet but you can use whatever you want to put them in) at this point put them in your preheated oven to let rise about 45 minutes to an hour and then bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 25 minutes.
    Take out of oven and add icing and your ready to eat. Enjoy!

    Icing
    • 1 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 -3 tablespoons milk , warmed
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    Sometimes I add about 4 oz. cream cheese to the icing mixture and it's wonderful!
