Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Milk, lukewarm
- 1 large Egg
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 3 tablespoons Butter, melted (for filling)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar (for filling)
- 1.5 tablespoons Ground cinnamon (for filling)
- 1 cup Powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Add the milk, egg, softened butter, sugar, salt, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and yeast to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Select the 'Dough' cycle and start the machine. Allow the machine to knead and proof the dough.
Once the cycle is complete, transfer the dough to a floured surface and roll it out into a 12x16 inch rectangle.
Brush the melted butter evenly over the rolled-out dough.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough 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.
Cover the dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 20-30 minutes or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the cinnamon rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and serve!
