Cinnamon rolls are best served warm. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. To reheat, warm in the microwave for 15–20 seconds or in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5–7 minutes.
Variations:
Add chopped pecans or raisins to the filling for extra texture.
Swap the glaze for cream cheese frosting for a richer flavor.
For a holiday twist, add a pinch of nutmeg and orange zest to the filling.
FAQ:
Why are my cinnamon rolls not fluffy?
Make sure your yeast is fresh and the dough has enough time to rise. Also, avoid adding too much flour—slightly sticky dough results in softer rolls.
Can I prepare them ahead of time?
Yes! Prepare the rolls and let them rise in the fridge overnight. Let them come to room temperature before baking the next morning.
Can I freeze cinnamon rolls?
Yes. You can freeze the unbaked rolls after shaping or freeze the baked rolls. Thaw and reheat before glazing or serving.
What type of milk works best?
Whole milk creates the richest dough, but you can also use 2% or plant-based milk with good results.
