Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.5 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Strong brewed coffee
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Coffee extract (optional)
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and unsalted butter over low heat until the butter is melted. Remove from heat and let it cool to lukewarm.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and granulated sugar.
Pour the lukewarm milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the egg and vanilla extract.
Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and coffee extract (if using) to prepare the filling.
After rising, punch down the dough and roll it into a 16x12 inch rectangle.
Brush the surface with the brewed coffee, then evenly sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture over the dough.
Roll up the dough tightly, starting from the long side, to form a log.
Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them cut side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Cover and let them rise again until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar with water until smooth.
Once the rolls are baked, let them cool for about 10 minutes before drizzling with the glaze.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your low sodium coffee rolls!
