Two Ingredient Dough Cinnamon Rolls Recipes

EASY CINNAMON ROLLS (WITH TWO INGREDIENT DOUGH!)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Make the two ingredient dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and yogurt, stirring until they are well combined, using a fork, if necessary. If the mixture is too sticky, add a Tablespoon of additional flour and continue to mix. Repeat as necessary until the mixture becomes a workable ball of dough. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead on a lightly floured surface, until the dough is smooth.
• In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon, brown sugar, and half of the butter. Set aside.
• Roll the dough into a rectangle shape, then brush the filling mixture on top of the rolled dough, covering the entire area.
• Roll the dough lengthwise. Then slice the rolled dough into even pieces.
• Lay each piece flat back onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet, and lightly brush with the remaining melted butter. Bake for 15-18 minutes. While rolls are in the oven, prepare the glaze.
• To prepare the glaze, combine ingredients in a medium bowl. Stir together until well combined.
• Allow the rolls to cool for 3-5 minutes before glazing.

TWO-INGREDIENT DOUGH CINNAMON ROLLS WITH VANILLA GLAZE

Steps:

• Combine self-rising flour and yogurt in a medium mixing bowl, stirring, until it begins to form a ball.
• Place dough ball on a lightly floured silicone mat or pastry board and knead a few times, until the dough is smooth. Add more flour if the dough sticks to the work surface.
• Lightly flour a rolling pin and roll dough out to a rectangle about 7 inches wide and 12 inches long, adding flour to the rolling pin if it sticks to the dough.
• Brush rolled dough with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
• Combine cinnamon and salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the buttered dough. Evenly distribute brown sugar over the dough rectangle, and follow with the chopped pecans.
• Begin rolling the dough at one end, continuing until all the cinnamon and nuts are rolled inside the dough, until you form a log about 4 inches across and 7 inches long.
• Wrap the dough roll in parchment paper and place in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a pie pan with parchment paper, or grease the bottom of the pan.
• Cut the dough into 6 rolls using a bench scraper or sharp knife.
• Place in the prepared pan, in a ring, with the rolls touching each other. Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining melted butter.
• Bake in preheated oven until the tops are lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
• While the rolls are in the oven, stir confectioners' sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl until all the sugar is dissolved. Add a bit more milk if the glaze is too thick. Add a bit more sugar if the glaze is too thin.
• Drizzle optional glaze over the rolls, if desired, and serve warm.
