How To Make Super Simple Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
Rolls
- 2 sheets puff pastry
- 1 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped, plus more for garnish
Icing
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted, or powdered brown sugar for a darker glaze
- 1 tsp milk
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
For Rolls:
-
Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray.
-
Thaw your puff pastry and spread it out onto a lightly floured surface. Brush the melted butter on top of the pastry.
-
Combine the cinnamon, brown sugar, and pecans in a small container. Sprinkle half of this mixture evenly across the surface of the dough.
-
Once the filling is distributed, roll the flat dough up into a cylinder.
-
Slice evenly into 6 even pieces and place them into the muffin tin.
-
Repeat steps 2 through 5 with your second sheet of puff pastry.
-
Brush the tops of your rolls with butter. Bake for 20 minutes or until the dough is puffed and golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes.
For Icing:
-
Mix together powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
-
If the mixture does not hold a somewhat-viscous consistency, add a bit more sugar to thicken or milk to dilute it.
-
Drizzle a spoonful of icing over your warm cinnamon rolls before serving. Garnish with additional pecans if desired.
