Our Favorite Cinnamon Rolls…
A Sweet Morning Treat! There’s something truly magical about the smell of yeasty dough baking in the morning—warm, sweet, and completely irresistible. Our favorite cinnamon rolls will have you making the effort to make them. Capture that magic with homemade cinnamon rolls. Our version is based on Joanne Chang’s beloved recipe from Flour Bakery in Boston. If you’ve ever tasted the cinnamon rolls at Flour, you know why we’re sharing this one! The dough is soft and pillowy, the filling is just the right mix of cinnamon and sugar, and the cream cheese glaze is pure perfection. This recipe is a little involved, but so worth the effort. All of the heavy lifting as we like to say is done the day before you are serving these treats. Using a KitchenAid mixer really makes this easy, but still time-consuming. Try it and bring a little bakery bliss to your own kitchen. Whether you’re planning a leisurely weekend brunch or just want to make a special morning a little extra special, these cinnamon rolls are sure to delight you. There’s nothing like waking up to the comforting aroma of freshly baked treats—it’s a simple pleasure that feels like a warm hug. Treat yourself and your family to these delicious cinnamon rolls. Enjoy every bite! This recipe is our version of the rolls we love at Flour Bakery in Boston.
