Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 6 tablespoons Butter
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 cups Finely chopped almonds
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons Milk (for icing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish.
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in 4 tablespoons of butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk and mix until a soft dough forms. Do not overwork the dough.
On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about 10x6 inches in size.
Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of softened butter evenly over the surface of the dough.
In a small bowl, mix the light brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped almonds. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Starting from one of the long edges, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 8 equal pieces.
Arrange the rolls cut-side up in the greased dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are light golden brown.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if necessary.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the icing over the warm rolls.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Almond Cinnamon Rolls!
