Cinnamon Roll with AlmondCinnamon Roll with Almond

 

I saw this recipe online, and fell in love as soon as I saw the picture. Of course, when I made this, I changed the recipe a little bit based on the ingredients I got at home.

This tastes really good. I made it twice within one week.

 

Ingredients:

Cinnamon Roll with AlmondDough:

1/2 cup warm water

1/2 cup yogurt

1 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened

4 1/2 – 5 cups all-purpose, unbleached flour

2 packages or 4 teaspoons bread machine yeast

4 teaspoons sugar

Filling:

1/2 cup sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon powder

1/4 cup softened butter

Frosting (I choose to use 1 egg and almonds only):

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon cream cheese

1 1/2 tablespoon coffee or milk

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds

 

Method:

1. Mix sugar and yeast, then add warm water, set aside for 10 minutes.

2. Add yogurt to yeast mixture, mix well.

3. Add eggs to yest mixture, mix well.

4. Mix flour and salt, then add to egg mixture, mix well.

5. Add butter to dough, mix well.

I did not use bread machine, but the stand mixer. If you make the dough by hand, add butter after step 3.

6. Set dough aside for about 1 hour or until doubled.

7. On a lightly floured board, divide dough into two portions. Roll each half to 12 x 12 inch rectangle.

8. Mix cinnamon powder and sugar, mix well.

9. Spread half of melted butter (2 tablespoons) on one rectangle. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over buttered area.

10. Begin rolling from long side and roll up tightly as possible. Then flatten log slightly with palms and slice log into 6 pieces.

11. Then make 3 cuts into each slice cutting to within 1/2 inch to the other side. Twist each slice slightly to make it lay somewhat flatter.

12. Lay parchment paper on baking sheet, then place on it. Cover and let rise until almost double.

13. Preheat oven to 375 degree.

14. Beat egg well, brush on top of rolls, sprinkle with sliced almonds, bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

Optional: To use the frosting, soften or allow butter and cream cheese to come to room temperature. Combine butter, cream cheese and coffee or milk together and beat until perfectly smooth.  Dip over rolls with a spoon or pour into small plastic zippered bag.  Cut off small corner of bag and use to drizzle frosting back and forth over rolls.  Sprinkle toasted almonds over frosted rolls immediately before frosting dries.  Or pick up frosted roll and turn upside down pressing icing into plate of almonds.  This insures the almonds will stick to icing.
