Description
Fluffy blueberry cinnamon rolls that are perfect for brunch, combining sweet blueberries and warm cinnamon for a delightful treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- Cream cheese frosting (for topping)
Instructions
- Start by mixing the flour, granulated sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.
- Warm the milk and butter in a saucepan until melted. Combine this warm mixture with your dry ingredients along with the egg. Mix until it all comes together.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until it’s smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes. Once done, place it in a greased bowl and cover it with a clean cloth. Let it rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle. Spread softened butter on top, then sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar. Lastly, scatter fresh blueberries.
- Roll the dough tightly from one end to the other, forming a log. Cut into equal slices.
- Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, arranging them close together. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly after baking, then top with cream cheese frosting before serving.
Notes
Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor. You can prepare these rolls ahead of time and refrigerate before baking.
