Grandma’s Homemade Cinnamon  (or Apricot) Sweet Rolls

I’ve shared an overnight cinnamon roll recipe here before, but these rolls are free-form (the shaping method is quite different) and they bake on a sheet instead of in a 9×13 pan.

Ingredients

– Dry yeast – Milk – Sugar – Butter – Salt – Eggs – Flour

Instructions

Once your batch of dough has risen for an hour, turn it out onto a counter and divide it in half. Roll one half into a rectangle, and spread with softened butter, like so.

Step: 1

Then sprinkle it with cinnamon sugar. When you make cinnamon bread, too much butter and cinnamon can make your bread fall, but this is pretty much never a problem with rolls.

Step: 2

Step: 3

Now take a pizza cutter and divide the dough into strips.   Again, you don’t need to be super precise.

Step: 4

Twist each dough strip and then coil it into a neat bun.
