    I loved this recipe, I was looking for one that would be simple. This is it. It's home made, and so yummy! I used Organic Whole Wheat Pastry Flour and Quick rise yeast. To make them a little different, instead of making one big roll and slicing sections, I rolled three smaller diameter full length(24" rolls, and braided them. I used my stoneware mini loaf pan, so I cut the long braid into 4 sections, and tucked the ends under. It made very beautiful little loaves. And each section had the layers of cinnamon roll that my husband was accustomed to. Just a way to fancy it up if you are into that kind of thing. And the fact it was whole wheat made me feel (a little better about him gobbling up a ton of it! HAHA

    I just tried these today with my 6 year old; they were fantastic! My husband is already saying that we should make some more. They are soft and gooey and just plain good. I didn't put them in the oven to rise,but when I put them in to bake, I saw how much more they rose. I was happy enough to share them with a very picky neighbour.

    I would definitely do them again, maybe this weekend.

    These cinnamon rolls were soft, not dry like the recipe I usually use. They were easy to make by hand also. I don't have a bread machine or stand mixer. I was careful about not overkneading like it says and it worked nicely.

    I did a couple of variations to this recipe that gave me the soft gooey cinammon roll consistancy I have been looking for. Instead of using milk try using buttermilk in it's place. The past recipes I have used milk as called for but those always came out drier than I liked. The I took the idea of using buttermilk from Alton Brown's recipe. Worked like a charm! Rolls came out fantabulous soft and wonderful. For the filling I just used brown sugar and cinammon only. For the frosting I again used the cream cheese recipe from Alton Brown's Overnight Cinnamon Rolls. I took an 8 oz pkg of cream cheese, 5 tablespoons of milk and blended till smooth and slightly runny. I then added powder sugar a little at time getting it to the sweetness I wanted. For a twist I added essential oil of sweet orange since I did not have orange zest or juice. I am aromatherapist and certain citrus esential oils such as lemon and orange can be used in tiny amounts. The lemon and orange extracts you buy at the store is exactly what that is only preserved and diluted in alcohol. ( A hint out there for you folks who do aromatherapy My dough took much longer than 1 hour rising. So I let my oven heat up to the possible lowest temp and shut it off (170 for my oven. In an ovenproof mixing bowl I put the dough in and it did double in size in about an hour and fifteen minutes tops. I also substitued about 1/2 to 1 cup of WHITE whole wheat flour by King Arthur flour for a bit of whole grain goodness. The dough on this variation took a bit longer to rise but the result still came out the same. So folk who did not have much luck try the above hints and see if they help. Sometimes it just comes down to finding the right recipe that works for you.

    This recipe is a little time consuming, unless you toss all ingredients in a bread maker and allow it to mix, knead, and rise in the machine. I've never made cinnamon rolls before and was pleasantly surprised and how rich and yummy these were, not to mention that my toddlers gobbled them up. Suggestion from husband was to reduce the sugar that is sprinkled on the dough - it was a bit too sweet.
