Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk (for icing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients, stirring just until the dough comes together.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a couple of times until it’s smooth.
Roll the dough into a rectangle approximately 12x8 inches.
Brush the dough with the melted butter evenly, leaving about 1/2 inch unbuttered along one long edge.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered part of the dough.
Starting from the long edge that is buttered, tightly roll up the dough to create a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
Using a sharp knife or floss, cut the log into 20 small slices.
Arrange the rolls cut side down on the prepared cookie sheet, leaving a small amount of space between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and fragrant.
While the rolls bake, prepare the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool for about 5 minutes before drizzling the icing over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy your tiny cinnamon rolls!
