i know i’m way late on this one, but i’ve just found your site and love it! i’ve wasted so much time perusing your wonderful creations! I just had to share a cinnamon roll recipe with you that has been my family’s favorite so far…even better than grandma’s homemade ones. it’s from the allrecipes website and it’s the cinnabon clone.

I never have used a bread machine to make the dough….since you’re a baker, I won’t patronize you by trying to explain how I do it without one! I will offer this bit of advice though:
if you put them in the fridge the night before so you can bake them fresh in the morning, turn the oven on to the lowest setting ( i think mine says 170) and let them sit in there for about 30 minutes, maybe 45, before cooking them at the correct temperature. ( i take them out while preheating). I have killed many a batch of cinnamon rolls while trying to do it “faster” from the fridge. but again…you probably understood that concept alot faster than me!
enjoy!

I find it absolutely hilarious that I am giving you this link…especially since I am NOT a domestic goddess. Honest to goodness, I had to look up a recipe for chocolate chip cookies this summer, since I. Do. Not. Bake. Or. Cook. At. All. Anyway, my sister made these cinnamon rolls once and I was impressed (she shares my love of baking!). I make mine in a glass baking dish, and they come out beautifully. Figure if you were willing to try using frozen pizza dough, you won’t balk at using frozen bread dough! Enjoy! http://www.housewifebarbie.com/2008/04/easy-cinnamon-rolls-using-frozen-bread.html

Glad to hear other bakers have troubles with cinnamon rolls. My dilemma is time. I don’t have much of it being the only baker in the café. So, my short cut is using…gasp…Bisquick!. I use a whole package with 2 cups of milk and stir to form a sticky dough. I then rolled it out and brush on butter, rub in brown sugar, sprinkle some cinnamon and toss in some raisins (and sometimes walnuts). It all gets rolled up and sliced and place on doubled baking sheets lined with parchment. This helps to avoid burning the bottoms. Place in a 450F oven and bake for 12-14 minutes. Makes about 12 rolls or I prefer to call them swirls. I then make a buttery icing and coat the cooled swirls.
This recipe saves me on time and the results are delicious!! They sell out every weekend!!!

First, your blog is wonderful and gives me encouragement to get back to posting on my own cooking blog. Second, I stumbled onto your blog today researching cheater methods for cinnamon rolls. I’m sorry to hear the pizza dough didn’t work. I’m much more of a cook than a baker so words like yeast and rising scare me. I will take some of the suggestions here and give it a try.

Also, in a true cheater pinch, I found this recipe on Real Simple last winter: http://food.realsimple.com/realsimple/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=1694687
It is good for a fast fix. Enjoy!

This recipe -

is fantastic! I don’t use a bread machine just do it all my hand and put it on a greased, baking paper lined roasting tin.

I have no problem with burning or losing filling.

Hey Joy. I actually just made a batch of cinnamon rolls the other day that turned out well. They’re not quick, but they’re the gooey-ist homemade rolls I’ve ever found…

add a little flour to the filling and it won’t ooze out as much… though i never had the ooze problem with these FABULOUS cinnamon rolls:
