Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 ml) Bisquick mix
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
Filling Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) melted butter
- 1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) melted butter
- 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar
Instructions
- Transform the Bisquick mixture into a soft, pliable dough by thoroughly blending Bisquick mix, milk, melted butter, sugar, and egg in a spacious mixing vessel until a cohesive texture emerges.
- Dust a clean work surface with flour and carefully manipulate the dough into a thin, uniform rectangular shape approximately ¼ inch thick, ensuring an even surface for filling.
- Generously coat the rolled dough with melted butter, creating a rich foundation for the sweet cinnamon layer.
- Craft a fragrant mixture of brown sugar and ground cinnamon, then meticulously distribute the blend across the buttered dough surface, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
- Expertly roll the dough from the longest edge, creating a tight cylindrical form, and delicately seal the edges to prevent filling escape.
- Slice the rolled dough into 12 harmonious segments, positioning each piece strategically within a well-greased baking vessel.
- Transfer the assembled rolls into a preheated 375°F oven, allowing them to transform into golden-brown delicacies over 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract into a silky, smooth glaze.
- After removing the rolls from the oven, permit a brief cooling period before adorning them with the luxurious vanilla glaze, creating a decadent finishing touch.
Notes
- Swap regular milk with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version that still maintains the rich, creamy texture of the rolls.
- Use coconut sugar instead of brown sugar to create a lower glycemic index option with a deeper caramel-like flavor.
- Enhance the dough’s moisture by adding a tablespoon of Greek yogurt, which helps create a softer, more tender cinnamon roll.
- Customize the spice blend by mixing ground cardamom or nutmeg with cinnamon for a more complex and aromatic filling that elevates the traditional recipe.
