Cooking Instructions
1.
Start by making the dough. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the
Whole Milk (1 cup)
,
Instant Dry Yeast (1 packet)
,
Honey (1 Tbsp)
,
Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (2)
,
Salted Butter (4 Tbsp)
,
Unbleached All Purpose Flour (3 1/2 cups)
, and
Kosher Salt (1/2 tsp)
. Beat until the flour is completely incorporated, 4-5 minutes.
2.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
3.
Butter a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
4.
In a small bowl, combine the
Brown Sugar (3/4 cup)
and
Simply Organic Cinnamon, Ground (1 tsp)
; set aside.
5.
When the dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface, punch it down, and roll it into a ball using your hands. Roll the dough into a rectangle measuring about 12x18-inches.
6.
Spread the
Salted Butter (1/3 cup)
over the entire surface of the dough. Top it off with an even scattering of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
7.
Starting with the long edge closest to you, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch along the edges of the log to seal it as you proceed.
8.
Cut the log into 6 rolls and place them cut side up in the prepared loaf pan. Cover and let rise 45 minutes to 1 hour in a warm place or overnight in the fridge. Be sure to bring the dough to room temperature before baking.
9.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
10.
Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until cooked through and browned on top, 30-40 minutes. If the bread is browning too quickly, cover it with foil for the remainder of oven time.
11.
Let cool for 5 minutes before turning it out onto a rack.
12.
Meanwhile, make the frosting. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a medium bowl with an electric hand mixer, beat together the
Cream Cheese (1/2 cup)
,
Salted Butter (4 Tbsp)
, and
Pure Vanilla Extract (1 tsp)
until fluffy.
13.
Gradually beat in the
Powdered Confectioners Sugar (1 1/2 cups)
that's been mixed with the
Simply Organic Cinnamon, Ground (1/2 tsp)
,
Ground Allspice (1/4 tsp)
,
Ground Ginger (1/4 tsp)
, and
Ground Cardamom (1/4 tsp)
. Beat until thoroughly combined.
14.
Spread the frosting over the warm rolls. Serve immediately with additional frosting on the side.
