My Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

Ok, guys. HERE IT IS! Im pretty sure this

Lauren's Latest My Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

http://www.laurenslatest.com/my-cinnabon-cinnamon-rolls/

is the most anticipated recipe Ive hyped up in a very loooong timeand for good reason! Ive been working hard trying to get this recipe as close as I can. To give you an idea of what Ive been up to and why it took me so long to finally publish this, let me explain my whole process. First I googled the ingredients of the cinnabon. After a few minutes, I found them. All companies have published their actual ingredients list SOMEWHERE. If its not on the web, go into the store and ask. These days, most companies have their nutritional information online. I found Cinnabons here. I also found a bunch of cloned recipes which had almost NONE of the actual ingredients found in one of these divine cinnamon rolls. Real clone? I think not! Once I had that list, I shortened it by taking out all the preservatives and things most people wouldnt have on hand like whey, powdered egg, potassium sorbate and yellow #5. I know I know.I just ran out of potassium sorbate too. Then from here I went through the list again and decided what ingredients were used for what. Flour-goes in the dough, brown sugar-goes in the filling, etc. Also, having the ingredients listed in order from most to least helped quite a bit. Once I had all that figured out, I just started testing. After 4 huge batches, I think I got a pretty good clone. If youre going to make a clone, use this recipe! Its the closest, next best thing using all the same ingredients. After all that hype, are you ready to make some of these?! It takes some time, but just like anything good and holy, its totally worth it! First up: the dough. Start out with warm water in your mixing bowl {not milk like the impostor cinnabon recipes online.}

Sprinkle some quick rising active dry yeast into the bowl along with about a tablespoon of the sugar.

Stir it around and let it proof for a few minutes while we get some other ingredients together.

Over to the side, measure out some oil, an egg and.buttermilkthe secret ingredient! Out of all the cloned recipes I looked through online, NONE of them had buttermilk!! If you search Cinnabon secret ingredient on youtube, youll find the creator talking about her ingredient. She never says what it is, but buttermilk fits the bill of everything she was saying!

something.

Now, after 5-10 minutes, your yeast should be looking pretty frothy and bubbly. Now you can add in that buttermilk/egg

mixture

the remaining sugar

and some salt. Stir this around for a minute. Then dump in about half of the measured flour into the bowl.

Once that is incorporated, sprinkle in more flour in 1/4 cup increments until the dough pulls away from the sides and the bowl looks clean. The dough should be sticky but not sticky enough to stick to your fingers when touched. Then, turn your mixer on low to knead 5 minutes. This dough pictured below is not quite ready. {See how its sticking to the bottom?} I ended up adding about 1/4 cup more flour and it was ready.

Once the dough is all kneaded, wrap it up and let it rise. In retrospect, I would have just greased a bowl and let it rise in there

because

after a few hours, things start to pop out and bulge. So, dont be like me. Keep your dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and a dish towel and rise 1-2 hours or until it has doubled in size.

Now, for the fillingin a small bowl, measure out some brown sugar, corn starch and cinnamon. I know cornstarch is a totally weird ingredient, but it helps hold the filling in the cinnamon roll instead of oozing out all over the place. It still oozes, but not nearly as much. {Cinnabon actually uses some sort of chemical/food gum to help it not ooze which is REALLY appetizing I

know}

Stir this all together and set it aside.

Also, before you start rolling, get some baking pans ready by lining them with parchment paper and lightly greasing them with

margarine. Now comes the fun part! {Excuse these under exposed, not so sharp photosI was running out of light!} Roll your dough out on a FLOURED work surface to be a 2030 inch rectangleor as close to it as possible. Dont sweat if its 1-2 inches shorter. Also, I ended up cutting a section of dough off one end and patching it into the other endno biggie. {You can see my patch job in this photo.} Spread some really soft margarine over the dough, leaving a 1 inch strip of dough plain and untouched.

and roll up the dough as tightly as you can, ending with the plain dough on the bottom of this log. Slice the uneven ends off

and get out your measuring tape! I scored this log of dough first every 2 inches, then sliced it to ensure even rolls.

Then I propped them up in the prepared pan, covered with plastic wrap and a dish towel and let them rise. Actually, I popped them into the fridge overnight, then brought them up to room temp and let them rise before baking. After I took the pan out of the fridge, I let them rise 4 hours. It takes a while to take the chill off.

Of course if you leave them on the counter, an hour or two later, you should have some pretty darn perfect rolls.

Scrape the sides and mix again until everything is smooth and delicious. If you want your frosting to look more like cinnabons, whip it 5-7 minutes or until it lightens in color.

Now comes the home stretch!! Once your rolls are freshly baked, pull them out of the oven and give them a healthy slathering of that frosting. If your frosting isnt finished once the rolls are done, pull them out and cover them lightly with foil. You dont want

Lauren's Latest My Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

http://www.laurenslatest.com/my-cinnabon-cinnamon-rolls/

Making the Dough- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, pour in water, yeast and 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar. Stir and proof 5 minutes. Once mixture looks bubbly and frothy, pour in remaining sugar and salt. Stir on low for 15-20 seconds. In a small bowl, measure buttermilk, oil and egg. Whisk ingredients together until egg is incorporated to other two ingredients. Pour contents into the water and yeast mixture. Stir another 20 seconds in the mixer. Pour 2 cups of flour into mixer and stir on low until incorporated. Sprinkle flour in by 1/4 cup increments until dough cleans the sides and bottom of the bowl. Dough should be sticky but not sticky enough to stick to your hands when touched. Once it has reached this stage, turn mixer on and knead for 5 minutes. Remove dough from bowl, grease and replace back into same mixing bowl {since it's practically clean anyways.} Cover with plastic wrap and a dish towel. Rise 1-2 hours or until dough has doubled in size. Filling and Cutting Rolls- In a medium size bowl, stir brown sugar, cinnamon and cornstarch together until combined. Set aside. Punch down dough. Flour a large clean table liberally with flour. Lightly flour dough as well. Roll dough out to be a 20x30 rectangle {or as close to that as possible} while moving dough around to ensure it's not sticking to your work surface. If it's a little short or uneven, feel free to cut off the edges to even it all out. {FYI-I cut off some dough on one side and filled in a spot that needed more dough on the other side to make a more even rectangle.} Spread softened margarine over dough, being sure to go right to the edges leaving a 1-inch strip untouched on one of the longer sides of dough. Dump brown sugar mixture onto the middle of the dough and spread with your hands, creating an even layer over top of the margarine, still leaving that 1-inch strip of dough untouched. If you have any filling that falls off the sides of the dough, use a bench scraper to replace. Lightly press the sugar mixture into the margarine using a rolling pin. Roll the dough up into a tight log, finishing with the plain dough on the bottom to seal the entire thing together. Cut off the uneven ends to even out the log. Score log every 2 inches and then slice your rolls using those marks. Place into parchment paper lined, margarine greased pans. 12 into a 9x13, 3 remaining into a loaf pan, or 8x8 with the small ends. Cover pans with plastic wrap and dish towels. Let rolls rise another 1-2 hours or until they are touching and have risen almost double. My rolls always spread out more than up, so just be aware that they will most likely spread out more than up. Bake in a preheated 350 degree for 17 minutes, or until tops start to brown. Watch them carefully!! For the Frosting- While the rolls are baking, whip cream cheese and margarine together. Stir in vanilla, corn syrup and lemon juice. Scrape sides and mix again. Pour in powdered sugar and stir slowly until it starts to incorporate. Then mix on high for 5 minutes or until frosting starts to lighten in color. Scrape sides and mix again briefly. Once rolls have been removed from the oven, frost using half the amount made. Then after they have cooled a few more minutes, frost again with remaining frosting. The first frosting will melt down into the rolls and the second layer should stay put. Serve warm. Recipe Notes: -See step my step photos for more details I neglected to mention. -Also, if your frosting isn't quite ready after you pull the rolls out of the oven, cover with foil so the tops don't dry out and get crispy. -If you notice it takes forever for your rolls to rise, try adding an extra teaspoon of rapid rise yeast to your dough next time around. I also like to use Red Star Platinum yeast--it's hardcore stuff.

I always like to double/triple time-intensive recipes and freeze if possible, and know that there is no amount of gym time that would cover me eating a double/triple recipe in one sitting! LOL Reply

Lauren February 9th, 2012 @ 2:23 am Id freeze these once they were all rolled but before you let them rise. Then once youre ready to make a batch, remove the pan from the freezer, let it come up to temp and then let it rise 2-ish hours. As long as they have risen before baking, they should be fine!! Reply
