Cinnamon scrolls bread machine
Soft cinnamon scrolls in a bread machine
Soft and sticky, melt in your mouth cinnamon scrolls are so delicious especially if they are still warm from the oven and dripping with cream cheese icing.
Making home made cinnamon scrolls in a bread machine is super easy as the bread machine dose all the hard work for you
Add all the ingredients to you bread machine pan and set to dough setting then walk away and do all the other jobs that you need to do. Then 1-2 hours later” hey presto” your cinnamon scroll dough is all done and just waiting to be shaped all the hard work has been done. The dough setting on my bread machine takes 1 ½ hours, but ever machine is different so the time will vary.
I use my bread machine dough setting for just about all my recipes that have yeast in them from dinner roll, pizza, hot cross buns and so much more.
Sometimes I’ve got some much going on that I don’t want to spend my time kneading dough (and I get sore hands and wrists) so therefore makings your dough in a bread machine is so handy.
HOW TO MAKE SOFT CINNAMON ROLLS
Once the bread machine has done its magic it’s time to get a bit more hands on with the dough.
Flour your bench or board and roll your dough out in to a rectangle about 30cm X 60cm (12inch X 23inch).
Spread soften butter all over your rolled-out dough rectangle and sprinkle with a good helping of brown sugar and cinnamon. YUM
Roll up your dough as tight as you can from your longest side. Pinching the ends together so they don’t unravel when cooking.
Slice in to about 18 bits around 3cm thick (1.25 inch)
Place scrolls on a lined or greased tray. Place the roll close together with about a 1 ½ cm gap, so when they rise and cook, they will touch each other which helps them stay nice and soft. If there is to much of a gap and they don’t touch when cooking the outsides of the rolls will go hard and dry.
Cover cinnamon rolls with a tea towel or cling wrap and leave to rise for 30 minutes.
Cook in a preheated 180.c (350f) oven for 18 -20 minutes or until nice and golden on the edges.
Leave to cool for a little bit before icing with cream cheese icing.
