My Favorite Cinnamon Buns

By Addie

MY NOTES: This also made a fantastic loaf of cinnamon-raisin bread in my 9-inch Wilton bread pan. I rolled it out, sprinkled it liberally with cinnamon-sugar and then rolled it up. I baked it at 350 degrees, tented after 15 minutes, for 30-40 minutes.


(This dough recipe is also known as Best Hamburger/Hot Dog Bun Recipe)

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups milk
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil or canola oil
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 1/4 teaspoons bread machine yeast

Preparation

Step 1

Place all ingredients in order recommended by your bread machine manufacturer. Select dough cycle and start machine.

Roll out to about 12 x 15" and spread with butter or margarine. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture or cinnamon bun filling over all and roll up tightly. Cut into as many buns as you want. I make 10. Set oven to 400° and turn down to 375° when you put buns inches Bake 20 minutes.

Other fillings would be delicious in these cinnamon rolls too!

REVIEW:

I made cinnamon rolls following the instructions exactly. The dough was easy to roll out and sliced well. I got 19 rolls cut 1" thick. Only 15 fit in the 9x13" pan so I baked the four "ends" in the toaster oven w/o the 2nd rise. YUMMY! The rolls are light and tender and have just the right amount of sweetness. Perfect!. The rest are doing their 2nd rise in the oven and are going to Bunco w/ me tonight. Can't wait to try them when my grandsons come to visit. They LOVE cinnamon rolls but have never had homemade before. I'm gonna be one popular grandmama w/ this recipe! My other cinnamon roll recipes are going bye bye. This is the one I'm using from now on!
