Delicious Mini Maple Cinnamon Rolls Recipe for Your Breakfast

Ingredients

Servings:
24
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup milk (warmed)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup water (warm)
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

9 steps

  1. Prepare the Dough

    In a bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.

    Ensure the milk is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  2. Mix Ingredients

    Add melted butter, egg, salt, and flour to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.

    Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  3. Rise the Dough

    Cover the bowl with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

    A warm oven (turned off) can be a great place for rising.
  4. Prepare Filling

    In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg for the filling.

    Feel free to adjust the spices to your taste.
  5. Roll and Fill

    Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread maple syrup, then sprinkle the filling evenly. Roll tightly.

    Use a sharp knife to cut the rolls evenly.
  6. Second Rise

    Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, cover, and let rise for another 30 minutes.

    Preheat your oven during this time.
  7. Bake

    Bake the rolls at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

    Check for doneness by tapping the bottom; it should sound hollow.
  8. Prepare Icing

    Whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    Adjust the consistency with more syrup or sugar as needed.
  9. Serve

    Drizzle icing over warm rolls and serve immediately.

    They taste best fresh out of the oven!
