Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm milk (110°F/45°C)
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup White sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons Cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Butter, softened (for filling)
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Milk (for glaze)
Instructions
Add the warm milk, egg, melted butter, flour, white sugar, salt, and active dry yeast into the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Select the Dough cycle on the bread machine and start. This typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours.
Once the dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a 12x16-inch rectangle.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together for the filling.
Spread the softened butter evenly over the rolled-out dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
Starting with the longer side, roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the seam to seal it.
Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, leaving space between the rolls.
Cover the baking dish with a clean towel and let the buns rise in a warm place for 30-45 minutes or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the cinnamon buns for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
While the rolls are cooling slightly, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a small bowl until smooth.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon buns and serve.
