Ingredients

  • 2 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
  • 2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon of salt
  • ¼ cup of unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup of unsalted butter melted

Instructions

  • To start, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the softened butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, and egg. Gradually pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough back into the bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rest for 10 minutes.Rolling, Filling, and Cutting (Word Count: 150)
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the dough into a rectangle, approximately 12x16 inches in size. Brush the melted butter evenly over the surface. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon, then sprinkle this mixture generously onto the buttered dough.
  • Starting from one of the longer sides, tightly roll the dough into a log shape. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces using a sharp knife or dental floss. Place the rolls into a greased baking pan, leaving a small gap between each one.Baking and Frosting (Word Count: 160)
  • Bake the cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. While the rolls bake, prepare a simple frosting by combining 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve a smooth consistency.
  • Once the cinnamon rolls are done, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the prepared frosting generously over the warm rolls, ensuring every inch is covered.Serving and Enjoying (Word Count: 120)
