Take note
Be careful when working with hot ingredients and sharp knives. Keep an eye on the roll while it's baking to prevent it from burning.

1

Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, 2 1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.

2

Add Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of warm milk, 1/4 cup of melted butter, and 1 large egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.

3

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Knead for about 5-7 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour.

4

Let the Dough Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

5

Prepare the Filling

In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 cup of softened butter until well combined.

6

Roll Out the Dough

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.

7

Spread the Filling

Evenly spread the prepared filling over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

8

Shape the Roll

Starting with one long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal. Trim off the uneven edges.

9

Cut and Arrange

Using a sharp knife, cut the rolled dough into 10-12 equal slices. Place the slices, cut side up, in a greased round baking pan.

10

Let it Rise Again

Cover the baking pan with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.

Bake the Giant Cinnamon Roll
