Dough Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 Cup warm water
  • 1/4 Cup Sugar or Honey
  • 1 Tbsp Active dry yeast
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/4 Cup melted coconut oil (any light tasting oil will do)

Recipe

1


Combine

In a stand mixer, combine sugar, warm water, and yeast. Give it a quick mix, cover, and let yeast dissolve for 10 minutes.

Add eggs, oil, and salt. Mix together. Then add the flour cup by cup while mixing. You have enough flour when the dough doesn’t stick to the side of the bowl, and is tacky but doesn’t stick to your fingers.

Knead for 5 minutes. Cover and let rise for 10 minutes.

2


Prepare

Dump dough onto floured surface. Roll out into a large rectangle.

Spread Butter and evenly sprinkling sugar and cinnamon.

Tightly Roll dough up into one long snake. Cut dough using unflavored dental floss or a sharp knife. Makes about 12 (+/-) rolls.

Place rolls onto a greased jelly roll pan, or glass baking dish(es).

Rise overnight

Cover rolls and place in the refrigerator overnight.

Note: At this step, rather than refrigerating overnight, you can let rise (covered) for 10-30 minutes.

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
