Iced Cinnamon Rolls

🍰 Desserts

Swirled cinnamon buns with brown-sugar goo, the mall-court smell recreated. Flaky, buttery pastry around a filling that actually tastes of the season. Good warm or at room temperature the same day.

Prep 31 min Cook 44 min Serves 8 Medium

Ingredients

  • Butter3 tbsp
  • Salt1/2 tsp
  • All-Purpose Flour2 cups
  • Sugar2 tbsp
  • Ground Cinnamon2 cups, chopped
  • Brown Sugar1/2 cup
  • Active Dry Yeast2 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Keep everything cold — the butter, the water, even the bowl — that is the whole secret of pastry.

  2. 2

    Cut the cold butter through the flour, drizzle in ice water, and gather the dough without kneading.

  3. 3

    Chill the wrapped dough thirty minutes to an hour while you prepare the ground cinnamon.

  4. 4

    Roll, fill with the ground cinnamon and brown sugar, and crimp or fold the edges well to seal.

  5. 5

    Bake until the crust is browned and the filling bubbles at the vents, 35-50 minutes, then rest twenty minutes.

Chef's tip

Ovens lie — an inexpensive thermometer is the cheapest upgrade to your baking.
