Serves: 18
Ingredients
  • 1 cup hot water (not boiling)
  • ¾ cup buttermilk, room temperature
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 3 Tablespoons active dry yeast
  • ½ Tablespoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 5-6 cups all-purpose flour (or bread flour)
Filling
  • 3 Tablespoons butter, melted
  • ⅔ cup brown sugar
  • ⅔ cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Mix together warm water, buttermilk, sugar, melted butter and yeast in a medium mixing bowl (allowing room in the bowl for yeast to expand). Let sit for 15 minutes.
  2. Add flour, salt, and eggs to a large mixing bowl; stir. Pour yeast mixture on top of flour mixture. Mix for 10 minutes (I prefer to use my Kitchenaid mixer with bread hook- makes it even faster!) and then let the dough sit for about 15-20 minutes (while you clean up your kitchen and prepare the filling).
  3. In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, both sugars and cinnamon; set aside.
  4. On a well-floured service, roll dough into a large rectangle. Spread filling over the entire surface and roll dough up (roll from the long side, like a hot dog).
  5. Slice the cinnamon "log" into 18 rolls and place the rolls carefully onto a lightly greased baking dish (I used an aluminum baking ban for my first dozen and added the last 6 rolls to my favorite cast iron skillet). Cover rolls with plastic wrap and let sit for another 15-20 minutes.
  6. Remove plastic wraps and bake at 375° F for 15-20 minutes.
  7. While your rolls are baking, make frosting (see recipe options below) and spread on warm cinnamon rolls. These are wonderful warm!
