CinnamonBuns

The scent of cinnamon in the air is extra special during the holidays, and there’s nothing quite like the taste of a warm Cinnamon rolls just out of the over drizzle with a sticky sweet glaze.

This recipe does take some time to prepare because of all the proofing time, but is well worth the wait. Yeast is activated till frothy and bubbly and mixed in to a flour and egg dough. It’s slathered with a sugared cinnamon spread. The very first time I made these I was so intimidated to get started but once I got started, I realized that’s it’s really simple, you just need to have time to leave the dough alone so it has time to rise to perfection. I’ve been making these often now, much to the delight of my boys.

This recipe makes 16 rolls
