Who doesn't love a Cinnabon? These taste so yummy but I always look for a way to make things a little healthier without changing the taste. I just spread a little less butter and use Neufchatel cheese and this recipe still tastes great. Ingredients:
1 cup warm milk (110 degrees f/45 degrees c) |
2 eggs, room temperature |
1/3 cup margarine, melted |
4 1/2 cups bread flour |
1/2 cup white sugar |
2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast |
1 cup brown sugar, packed |
2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
1 (3 ounce) package neufchatel cheese, softened |
1/4 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Place milk, eggs, margarine, bread flour, white sugar, and yeast in the pan of bread machine in recommended order by manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.
2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface after it has doubled in size. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
3. Roll dough into a 16x21-inch rectangle. Spread dough with 2 tablespoons butter and sprinkle evenly with sugar mixture. Roll up dough and cut into 12 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Cover and let rest until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
5. Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
6. Beat together Neufchatel cheese, 1/4 cup butter, confectioner's sugar, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Spread frosting on warm rolls before serving.
