Dough Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
Filling Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, milk, and butter to form a soft, pliable dough. Knead gently until smooth and elastic, then let it rest for about 10 minutes to make it easier to roll out.
- Roll and fill: Roll the dough out on a floured surface into a rectangular shape. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar evenly over the surface of the dough, making sure to cover every inch for consistent flavor.
- Form rolls: Starting from one long edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Cut the log into 12 even slices to create individual cinnamon rolls.
- Bake the rolls: Place the rolls on a greased baking pan, spaced evenly apart. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 25 minutes or until the rolls are fluffy and golden brown on top.
Notes
- For extra softness, brush melted butter over the rolls before baking.
- You can add a simple glaze with powdered sugar and milk for added sweetness.
- Let the rolls cool slightly before serving to avoid burning your mouth on hot filling.
- Optionally, add chopped nuts or raisins to the filling for extra texture.
