Ingredients
Scale
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2.25 tsp instant yeast
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.75 cup warm milk
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter softened
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup brown sugar for filling
- 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon for filling
- 1 cup powdered sugar for glaze
- 1 tbsp milk or cream for glaze
- 0.5 tsp alcohol-free vanilla for glaze
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the warm milk, softened butter, and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, roll out the dough into a rectangle. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling and sprinkle it over the dough. Roll tightly into a log and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Place the pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the Cinnamon Roll Bites for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
- While baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm Cinnamon Roll Bites and serve immediately.
Notes
You can adjust the glaze consistency by adding more milk or powdered sugar as needed. For extra flavor, consider adding chopped nuts to the filling.
