Whoever writes that blog calls it a "30 minute" recipe. It took me at least an hour, but I wasn't very organized & had lots of little distractions.
Oh, but I did doubled the recipe. Yeah. That has to be why it took me twice as long
We paired our rolls with a quiche & green smoothies and called it "brupper." Yum!
Here is my version of the recipe:
Mini Whole Wheat Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar (I used turbinado)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk (I used kefir)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (or turbinado)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dough:
Filling:
Vanilla Icing:
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a mini muffin pan.
- To make dough mix together flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Stir in buttermilk (or kefir) until a dough ball forms. Turn out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough into an a rectangle about 1/4th inch thick. Add just a sprinkle of flour if the dough sticks to the rolling pin.
- Spread the melted coconut oil out on the dough and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll into a log and cut into 12 equal rolls. Place the rolls into prepared muffin tins. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned.
- For the icing, whisk powder sugar, milk and vanilla together until smooth. Spoon icing over top each roll after they've cooled about 5 minutes.
