Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 whole Large egg
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast or bread machine yeast
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons Ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (for filling)
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk or cream (for icing)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Place the milk, unsalted butter, egg, granulated sugar, salt, all-purpose flour, and yeast into the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Set the bread machine to the dough cycle and start it.
Once the dough cycle is complete, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface.
Roll the dough out into a 16x12-inch rectangle.
Spread the 3 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter evenly over the dough.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Starting at one of the longer edges, tightly roll the dough into a log, keeping the seam on the bottom.
Cut the log into 12 equal slices using a sharp knife or unflavored dental floss, and place the slices cut-side-up into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cover the baking dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the buns rise for 30-45 minutes, or until they puff up slightly.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the cinnamon buns for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
While the buns bake, make the icing by whisking together powdered sugar, milk or cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Once the buns are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for 5-10 minutes before drizzling the icing over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy!
