Instructions
- In a small measuring cup, combine brown sugar, warm water, and yeast. Stir to combine and let sit for 10 minutes until activated.
- While you are waiting for the yeast to activate, combine the milk and 6 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan and heat over low heat until melted. Be careful it doesn't get too hot!
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, and salt.
- Pour the butter and milk mixture into the flour mixture and add the yeast/sugar mixture in as well.
- Combine until a dough is formed, and knead for 3-4 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a clean damp towel and let rise for an hour or until it has doubled in size.
- After the dough has completed rising, place it on a floured surface and, using a rolling pin, roll it into a large rectangle about 9 x 14-15 inches long.
- Brush melted butter on top of dough and sprinkle with brown sugar. Evenly distribute the peeled, diced apples across the surface of the dough, and sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Tightly roll up the dough along the long side and carefully cut the rolls into about 1 inch pieces.
- Place them in a greased baking dish.
- Cover again with a clean, damp kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes or until nice and fluffy.
- Remove the towel, and place in a preheated oven at 350° F for 20-22 minutes or until tops are golden brown and dough is fully cooked.
- While the cinnamon rolls are in the oven, combine the glaze ingredients in a medium bowl, and stir to combine.
- Remove rolls from the oven and top with maple glaze.
Notes
- Can I make these Vegan/Dairy free? Of course! You would substitute with dairy free ingredients here!
- Tips for baking with yeast:
- Use the correct yeast! This recipe calls for active dry yeast, which means it needs to be activated before using!
- Make sure to check the date on your yeast! Expired yeast will not perform well.
- Storage-
- Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Pop them in the microwave when ready to eat.
