Homemade Cinnamon Rolls (No Yeast)

April 23, 2018 by Abby

You don’t have to choose between popping open a can or spending half your day tending to dough. Packed with gooey filling, smothered in rich glaze, and made without yeast, Homemade Cinnamon Rolls can be ready to enjoy in under an hour.

I recently heard the period of April and May described as the Christmas season’s slightly less hyper sister. It’s true, y’all. Even without the insane busyness of wrapping up the time-consuming project for the capstone class of my Masters degree, we’ve still got T-ball games, science fairs, awards days, state tests, and more. I don’t mind being busy, but I don’t like when that busyness keeps me from doing something I love — baking.

I realized last Sunday morning that I hadn’t made a new recipe in quite some time. My kitchen is my happy place, so of course that realization got me thinking about what I could whip up to share with my Sunday school classmates at church. These Homemade Cinnamon Rolls were the clear winner. Because they lack yeast and don’t require rising time, they’re super easy to make in just a couple hours.

I used my beloved KitchenAid stand mixer to stir and knead the dough, but it can be done by hand, too. With a straightforward filling and a two-ingredient glaze, this recipe is easier to make than you probably thought Homemade Cinnamon Rolls could be. They’re perfect for lazy Saturday mornings or special occasion brunches.

My local FFA club sold flats of strawberries a few months ago. I bought one and decided to bake my way through the whole thing. The result was a whole lot sweet strawberry goodness, including these Strawberry Balsamic Donuts with Balsamic Glaze.

The flavor combination of strawberries and balsamic vinegar is one of my favorites. I love to sprinkle sliced strawberries with brown sugar and balsamic and eat them that way. I just knew I could turn those flavors into a delicious baked donut. I was worried the donuts would be too taste-specific, but I was wrong. I shared the leftovers with my high school English students and they loved them!
