Quick cinnamon rolls

Here's a quick recipe for cinnamon rolls that I baked for the weekend - without yeast, which takes a long time to rise, but with baking powder and thick milk/sour milk.

By the way, for an additional flavor note, I used Súrmjólk with a nut and caramel flavor, which I love here in Iceland - but of course it also works with normal sour milk and tastes nice and fresh!


Ingredients

550 g flour
3 tsp baking powder
100 g sugar
80 g melted butter
380 g concentrated milk

50 g sugar
1 tsp cinnamon


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

To make the dough, mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, melted butter and concentrated milk in a large bowl...

...and knead into a dough that is as smooth as possible.

Roll up the dough on a floured surface or surface lined with baking paper into a rectangle about 1 cm thick.

Mix the sugar with the cinnamon and spread over the dough.

Then carefully roll out the dough over the long side.

Cut the dough into slices about 1.5 cm thick.

Place on a baking tray covered with baking paper...

...and bake in the preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) upper and lower heat for about 15 - 20 minutes until the cinnamon rolls have turned nice and golden brown.

Then enjoy your meal everyone!
