Instructions
For the dough:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk, butter, and water over low heat until the butter has melted. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Add the warm milk mixture, vanilla extract, and eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle of about 12x16 inches.
- Spread the softened butter over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle on the apples and cinnamon sugar. Starting with the long edge closest to you, roll the dough into a log.
- Cut the log into 12 equal-sized rolls. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each.
- Cover the baking dish with a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F / 176 degrees C. Bake the rolls for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Brown Butter Maple Glaze:
- Melt the butter in a small or medium saucepan and cook for around 5 minutes or until the butter brown. Set aside.
- Sieve powdered sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer and beat in heavy cream and melted butter for about 3 minutes until creamy.
- Beat in the maple syrup until well combined. When all of the ingredients are incorporated, briefly beat over high speed.
- Drizzle glaze over warm rolls, serve and enjoy.
Notes
- Ensure the dough is smooth and elastic after kneading for light and fluffy cinnamon rolls.
- Allow the dough to double in size during the first rise for optimal texture and flavor.
- Roll the dough into a tight log to create well-defined layers in the cinnamon rolls.
- Bake at 350 degrees F / 175 degrees C for golden, fully cooked yet still moist rolls.
- Adjust glaze thickness by adding more powdered sugar for a thicker glaze or more maple syrup for a thinner consistency.
- Storage - Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. You can also refrigerate them for a longer shelf life.
