Why This Recipe is Perfect for Commercial Use

This recipe is carefully structured to yield soft, gooey cinnamon rolls ideal for commercial baking. The measurements are precise, the process streamlined, and the results consistent. Plus, you get tips and variations, including how to make your own homemade brown sugar for an extra punch of flavor.

Pro Baking Tips

• Use room temperature milk not warm or hot.
• Use milk instead of water for a richer taste
• Stick to the recipe to achieve same perfect result.
• Don’t over-knead the dough. 4 minutes is enough for soft texture.
• For perfect slicing, use unflavored dental floss to cut the log without squishing it.
• Proofing matters. Under-proofed dough = dense rolls. Always wait till they’re puffy.
• Just like my other Yeast doughs you can prepare the dough in Advance and freeze it for up to 3 months! When you’re ready to use, just go ahead and bake directly without leaving it to thaw or come to room temperature.

Preparation Steps

Step 1: Prepare Your Tray

Line your baking tray with parchment paper. Alternatively, grease the tray with butter or margarine, sprinkle a thin layer of flour, and tap out the excess. This keeps your rolls from sticking—just like prepping cake pans.

How to Make Cinnamon Rolls – Full Procedure

Filling:

1. Mix your brown sugar and cinnamon powder thoroughly. Set aside.
2. Also set aside your softened butter/margarine for spreading later.

Dough:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, sugar, and salt. Stir well. Then add the yeast and stir again.
   Tip: Always mix salt and yeast separately—salt can deactivate yeast if they touch directly.
2. Create a well in the center of your flour mix. Add eggs and softened butter. Mix with your hands or a spoon to form a crumbly, breadcrumb-like texture.
3. Make another well in the center and begin adding milk little by little. Mix until you form a slightly sticky but manageable dough.
4. Transfer the dough onto your clean work surface. Knead for 4 minutes. You can use a slamming method (shown in the video) or a dough mixer for commercial quantities.
5. Roll the dough into a rectangle measuring about 18 by 15 inches.
6. Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface of the rolled dough.
7. Sprinkle your cinnamon-brown sugar mix generously across the top. Using an offset spatula or crank knife, press the filling gently into the dough for full absorption (watch this technique in the video).
8. From the long edge, roll the dough into a snug log (not too loose). Slice into 12 equal portions using dental floss or a sharp knife.
9. Place each roll on your prepared tray, leaving space between them for expansion.
10. Cover and proof for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the rolls become visibly puffy.
11. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
12. Let the rolls cool for 2–3 minutes, then remove them from the tray. Glaze with any topping of your choice—cream cheese, vanilla glaze, or just a light sugar syrup.
