ABOUT Whole Wheat Cinnamon Rolls RECIPE

Just by looking at the different varieties of Cinnamon Rolls I have made by now , you can guess my love for them . Let's twist things up (like I always do) and add in wheat flour and honey as the glaze. How does it taste? Well all I will say is that you will never use maida again.

Instructions

In a large bowl , add in the whole wheat flour along with the oil and set aside.
Heat the milk to lukewarm in a saucepan and add the yeast , stir briskly and set in a warm place .
Once the yeast is bubbled up add it to the flour and knead into a soft dough .
Let this dough sit in a warm place to rise for an hour or till doubled up in size .
Melt butter and have it ready .
Mix the powdered sugar and cinnamon powder .
On a lightly floured surface , roll out your dough to a rectangle of about half an inch thick .
Brush the melted butter all along the length of the rolled out dough , making sure to leave an inch from all sides .
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture and tap it down into the dough
Start rolling the dough from one end making sure to pinch it down gently as you move along .
When done , cut it up into slices about an inch thick.
Place them on a well greased pan and set in a warm place again to rise for about 20 mins .
In the meanwhile , pre heat your oven to 180 degree C
Bake the rolls for about 25 mins or till golden brown .
As a twist , substitute glaze with honey . It goes really well .
