Three cinnamon rolls sit on a white plate with close-up focus on the front roll. The front cinnamon roll has two layers visible: the soft, brown swirled dough with a slightly crispy texture on the outside, and a thick layer of creamy white icing dripping down the sides. On top, small crumbly brown sugar pieces add texture. The two cinnamon rolls in the background are slightly blurred but show the same layers of dough, icing, and crumb topping.

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)
  • 1 cup Biscoff Cookie Butter (Ensure it’s vegan-friendly if needed)
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar (Adjust for desired sweetness)
  • 2 tablespoons Milk (Use dairy or non-dairy based on preference)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes bubbly and frothy.
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, mix the yeast mixture with melted butter, salt, egg, and flour. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Step 3: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Step 4: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  5. Step 5: Roll the dough into a rectangle. Spread Biscoff cookie butter evenly over the surface.
  6. Step 6: Roll the dough tightly into a log, then slice into 1-2 inch thick pieces and arrange them in a baking dish.
  7. Step 7: Cover the rolls with a towel and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  8. Step 8: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Step 9: Mix powdered sugar with milk to make a glaze. Drizzle it over the rolls once they have cooled slightly.

Tips & Variations

  • For a vegan version, substitute the butter with plant-based butter and replace the egg with a flaxseed or chia seed egg.
  • Try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top of the cookie butter for an extra layer of flavor before rolling.
  • Whole wheat flour can be used instead of all-purpose flour, but reduce the liquid slightly since whole wheat absorbs more moisture.

Storage

Store leftover cinnamon rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving to restore softness.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 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, inferred from typical cinnamon roll recipes)
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon (common in cinnamon rolls, inferred from filling step)

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, signaling the yeast is active and ready to use.
  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 becomes smooth and elastic, which develops gluten for optimal 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, approximately 1 hour. This fermentation process enhances flavor and texture.
  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 to create the filling layer.
  6. Shape Rolls: Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Slice the log into pieces about 1-2 inches thick. Place these rolls cut side up in a greased baking dish, arranging them close together.
  7. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and allow them to rise for another 30-45 minutes. This step ensures the rolls become fluffy and light before baking.
  8. Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes or until they turn a golden brown color, indicating they are cooked through and nicely browned.
  9. Glaze: Let the rolls cool slightly. Prepare a glaze by mixing powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Drizzle this glaze over the warm rolls just before serving for an extra touch of sweetness and moisture.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, substitute the egg with a flaxseed or chia seed egg and use plant-based butter and non-dairy milk.
  • Adjust the cinnamon and sugar amount in the filling to your taste preference for more or less sweetness.
  • Make sure the milk is warm but not too hot when activating yeast to prevent killing the yeast culture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Reheat gently in the oven or microwave for a soft, freshly-baked texture.
