cinnamon rolls are my all time craving when I’m in nyc. since I miss my girlfriend so much & so many other things about the city including a few sweet treats, I decided to make cinnamon rolls myself with a little twist by adding coconut sugar instead of just the usual brown sugar.
Recipe
ingredients:
dough
3 1/4 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 ts salt
1/2 oz yeast
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup milk

1 egg
filling
1/3 cup soft butter
2 tbsp cinnamon
1/3 cup brown coconut sugar
icing
1 cup icing sugar
2 1/2 tbsp milk
1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
procedure:
in a large bowl mix & knead together all ingredients for the dough until everything is well combined & smooth
cover bowl with a wet towel & let the dough rise for 1-2 hours
in the meantime prepare the cinnamonn filling by mixing together the soft butter, cinnamon, & coconut sugar
roll out dough on a well floured surface into a rectangular shape
spread filling evenly onto the dough
roll up the dough tightly & cut into 5 cm / 2 inch thick pieces
place pieces in a baking pan & cover again with a wet towel for 30 minutes
preheat oven to 200 C / 375 F
bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes
whilst the rolls are baking in the oven prepare the icing

once the cinnamon rolls come out of the oven, glaze everything with the icing & let cool for 15 minutes
