Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast (Check expiration date for freshness)
  • 1 cup Warm Milk (110°F / 43°C, can use dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (Can substitute with brown sugar)
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter (Melted, can use plant-based butter for vegan)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (Essential for flavor)
  • 1 Large Egg (Can substitute with flaxseed or chia seed egg)
  • 4 cups All-Purpose Flour (Can use whole wheat flour, adjust liquid)

Filling

  • 1 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter (Ensure it’s vegan-friendly if needed)
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar (for sprinkling, estimated)
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon (estimated, commonly used in cinnamon rolls)

Glaze

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar (Adjust for desired sweetness)
  • 2 tablespoons Milk (Use dairy or non-dairy based on preference)

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a cozy bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it’s bubbly and frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with melted unsalted butter, salt, large egg, and all-purpose flour. Stir until a sticky dough starts to form, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Knead Dough: Transfer your dough onto a floured surface. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic, which develops the gluten for the ideal cinnamon roll texture.
  4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. This step allows the dough to become light and airy.
  5. Prepare Filling: Once risen, roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Spread the Biscoff cookie butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for that classic cinnamon roll flavor enhanced with cookie butter richness.
  6. Shape Rolls: Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log from one long edge. Slice the log into 1-2 inch thick pieces and place them cut side up in a baking dish, leaving space between rolls to expand during the second rise.
  7. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until they puff up and nearly double in size, which ensures softness after baking.
  8. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top. This baking method creates a tender interior and a beautiful golden crust.
  9. Glaze: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before drizzling with a simple glaze made by mixing powdered sugar with milk. This adds a sweet, creamy finish that complements the spiced filling.

Notes

  • You can substitute the large egg with a flaxseed or chia seed egg to make this recipe vegan.
  • Use plant-based butter and dairy-free milk for a vegan version.
  • Make sure your yeast is fresh and warm milk is not too hot to properly activate yeast.
  • Adjust sugar quantity in filling or glaze based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • Whole wheat flour can replace all-purpose flour but may require slight adjustments to liquid quantities.
  • For a more pronounced cinnamon flavor, increase cinnamon in the filling up to 1 tablespoon.
  • Keep rolls separated in the baking dish to prevent sticking; use parchment paper or lightly grease the dish.
