I am always on the lookout for shortcut recipes in the kitchen! These Quick 45 Minute Cinnamon Rolls are just that – amazing cinnamon rolls in half the usual time! I use a method I call quick rise for these rolls. I turn on the oven and allow it to warm up. Next I turn off the oven and I cover the rolls with foil and place them in the oven for 20 minutes as it cools down.
Start by making the dough for the cinnamon rolls. Roll the dough out to a rectangle and top with softened butter and cinnamon sugar. Roll the dough into a log and chop into 9 even pieces. Once the dough has risen, I bake them in the oven. When the cinnamon rolls are still warm, I drizzle them with a sugar glaze. Enjoy these slightly warm with strong coffee!
To make Quick 45 Minute Cinnamon Rolls, you will need the following ingredients:
Mix 2 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour with 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 package of instant yeast together in a large bowl.
In a separate heat proof bowl, heat ½ a cup of water, ¼ cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the microwave for 30-45 seconds until the butter is melted.
Add the butter mixture to the flour mixture and stir well. Add 1 egg. Place in a lightly greased bowl and let rest for about 5 minutes.
Knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer for 3-4 minutes until the dough is no longer sticky.
Preheat the oven to 390 °F.
Once the dough has rested for 5 minutes, use a rolling pin to roll it into a 15 x 9-inch rectangle.
Spread ¼ cup of softened butter on top. Combine 2 tablespoons of cinnamon and ¼ cup sugar and sprinkle it all over the dough.
Roll up the dough tightly into a log. Cut the log into 9 even pieces. Place the rolls in a lightly greased 9-inch pan and lightly cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap.
Turn off the oven and place the tray of rolls in the warm oven to rise for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil or plastic and turn on the oven to 375 °F. Bake the rolls in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown on top and cooked through. Remove from the oven.
Combine 1 cup of powdered sugar with 1 teaspoon of vanilla and 2 tablespoons of milk. Mix together until smooth and lump free. Add more milk if the mixture is too thick.
Drizzle the glaze over the still warm rolls.
Serve these delicious cinnamon rolls with strong coffee!
