Cinnamon rolls are one of my all-time favourite baked goods. There is just something oh so comforting about sweet cinnamon on soft fulffy bread… literally nothing can beat a fresh warm roll from the oven!
This recipe is adapted from the amazingly talented Minimalist Baker! Literally so easy to make and ONLY 6-ingredients (salt doesn’t count right)

- 3. Grease your bowl with butter/oil and place the dough back in there. Cover the bowl with a towel & allow the dough to rest for 1 hour
- 4. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, fan-forced. Grease your baking tin with butter.
- 5. After an hour, turn the dough onto a lightly floured board, roll out the dough into a thin rectangle (~ 1cm thickness)
- 6. Make the filling by mixing the cinnamon & sugar. Brush the melted butter over the dough, sprinkle over the cinnamon + sugar mix.
- 7. Tightly roll up the dough into a cigar, then cut into 8 even portions. Arrange these evenly in your prepared tin
- 8. Bake in the oven for 20-22 mins until golden
- 9. In the meantime, whisk together the ingredients for the icing until smooth. Once the rolls come out the oven, drizzle the sauce over the top. Serve warm!
