Ingredients

Scale

Flour

You will need 4 cups of all-purpose flour for the dough. This forms the base of your cinnamon rolls and gives them a soft and fluffy texture once baked.

Yeast

One packet (about 2 ¼ teaspoons) of active dry yeast is essential for making the dough rise. This ingredient helps create those light and airy layers you crave in a perfect cinnamon roll.

Milk

Using 1 cup of whole milk adds moisture to the dough, ensuring it stays tender while baking. The warmth of the milk helps activate the yeast efficiently.

Sugar

Granulated sugar is required in two parts: ½ cup for the dough and ½ cup for the filling. This sweetness balances well with the savory bacon and enhances overall flavor.

Butter

You’ll need ½ cup (one stick) of unsalted butter. Melt it for mixing into the dough and also use some to spread over the rolled-out dough before adding cinnamon and sugar.

Eggs

Including 2 large eggs enriches your dough, giving it structure and richness. They also contribute to a beautiful golden color when baked.

Bacon

Use about 6 strips of cooked bacon that have been chopped into small pieces. The salty flavor contrasts beautifully with the sweet maple syrup in this recipe.

Cinnamon

Two tablespoons of ground cinnamon are necessary for that classic cinnamon roll flavor. It complements both the sweetness of maple syrup and the savoriness of bacon perfectly.

Maple Syrup

1/2 cup of pure maple syrup provides that distinct flavor you crave in these rolls. It serves as both a sweetener in the filling and as part of your glaze after baking.
