Alton Brown’s Overnight Cinnamon Rolls, Don’t let the long prep time keep you from making these yummy rolls- most of the time is just waiting!, I loveee this recipe It’s easy to follow And the rolls look Amazing I changed it up a bit Used spelt flour Organic all purpose flour and organic cane brown sugar, These are great, just have to use a few baking tricks As mentioned, most of this recipe is spent waiting: waiting for the ingredients to come to room temperature and waiting for the rise The mixer does most of the work on the dough, so everything else just helps to make these fool proof Always check the expiration date on your yeast just to be safe so all your hard work isn’t wasted on yeast that won’t rise Make sure everything is brought to room temperature before starting to make these I only added 3 1/2 cups of flour to the dough for the right feel to it To help it rise, I cover the bowl with plastic wrap, then put a dish towel on top of this too I turn on the oven to about 250, and sit the bowl on the warm stove to rise The warm stove helps the yeast puff up, even if you have a cooler house It doubled in about 2 hours After I sprinkled on the cinnamon/sugar mix, I rub it onto the dough to make sure it was an even coat and mixed well They rose a little in the fridge, but the hot water pan puffed them right up I was waiting for the family to get up, so they were in the oven with the hot water about an hour I only baked them about 25 minutes, but I started checking them at 20 minutes I ‘tweaked’ the icing with a bit more cream cheese since it was a little too sweet and not enough cream cheese taste My husband and the In-Laws raved about these for breakfast Hubby heated one up later in the day, and said he hopes these become a Christmas tradition
