Ingredients

Scale

Flour

For this recipe, you will need 4 cups of all-purpose flour. This serves as the base for your dough and provides structure to your cinnamon rolls.

Yeast

Use 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast to help your dough rise. Fresh yeast promotes fermentation and contributes to the lightness of the rolls.

Milk

You will require 1 cup of warm milk (around 110°F). Warm milk activates the yeast and helps create a tender dough.

Sugar

Add 1/4 cup of granulated sugar to sweeten the dough. This adds flavor while also feeding the yeast during fermentation.

Butter

Melted butter is crucial; use 1/2 cup. It adds richness and moisture to the dough for a soft texture.

Egg

Incorporate one large egg into your dough mixture. The egg enriches the dough and contributes to its overall flavor and color.

Brown Sugar

Use 1 cup of packed brown sugar for the filling. It adds moisture and caramel flavor, enhancing each roll’s sweetness.

Cinnamon

You will need 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon for flavoring the filling. This spice is essential in creating that classic cinnamon roll taste.

Cooked Bacon

Chop up 6 slices of cooked bacon finely. The crispy bits provide a savory contrast to the sweetness of the rolls.

Maple Syrup

Finally, you’ll need 1/2 cup of maple syrup for glazing. It adds a wonderful sweetness that complements both the dough and bacon.
