Directions
Slightly Better-For-You Cinnamon Rolls, Based on a recipe from Bon Appetit magazine, but changed just slightly to include a few lower-fat options and a bit of whole grains Still retains all its yummy-gooeyness, though , Delicious – I prepared them the night before and baked them for brunch in the morning – used vanilla yogurt because I didn’t have plain There was one confusing part of the recipe my yeast packet says that one packet is 2 1/4 tsp – but the recipe says that equals 2 packets – used 2 packets and it turned out fine Any suggestions on replacing that last egg with something? – I would like to make them for my BF who is allergic to eggs , This was a great recipe! I changed a few things though I added spelt flour instead of pastry flour, dried orange peel to the dough I also increased the amount of butter and brown sugar, and replaced the powdered sugar for the icing with about 2 tblsp honey It was wonderful when it came out, they were gooey and delicious! ^^
