Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk warmed to 110°F
  • 1/4 cup water warmed to 110°F
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 3 1/3 cups bread flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup butter softened, for filling
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk for glaze

Equipment

  • Bread machine
  • Rolling Pin
  • 9x13 inch baking pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Add milk, water, egg, butter, flour, sugar, salt, and yeast to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the dough cycle and start the machine.
  2. Once the dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it into a 12x18-inch rectangle.
  3. Spread the softened butter for the filling evenly over the dough. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle it over the butter.
  4. Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking pan.
  5. Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over the warm rolls before serving.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For best results, use room temperature ingredients to ensure even mixing in the bread machine.
• Avoid over-rolling the dough to maintain a light and fluffy texture.
• Serve warm for the best flavor and texture, or reheat in the microwave for a few seconds.
Food Safety:
• Ensure milk and water are warmed to the correct temperature to activate yeast without killing it.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
