  • FOR THE DOUGH
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour (, divided)
  • 6 tablespoons butter (, softened)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • FOR THE FILLING
  • 3 tablespoons butter (, divided)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • EGG WASH
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • VANILLA GLAZE
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instruction

  • In your mixer's bowl, combine yeast, sugar, salt and water; mix on low just to combine.
  • Add 1/2-cup flour and softened butter; mix until blended.
  • Add remaining flour and continue to mix for 2 minutes.
  • Grease a large bowl with oil; transfer dough to the bowl and turn it so to coat with the oil.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel; set aside and let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size. For a faster rise, it helps to set the bowl on top of a warm oven.
  • Preheat oven to 375-degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Transfer dough to a lightly floured working area and punch it down.
  • Roll out the dough to a 12-by-16 inch rectangle.
  • Using your fingers, spread 2 tablespoons butter over the dough.
  • Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • Sprinkle with light brown sugar.
  • Add small pieces of remaining butter over the filling.
  • Begin to roll the dough away from you; roll it tightly into a log.
  • Grab the ends and bring them together to form a ring; pinch the seams together.
  • Cutting partially through, slice the ring into 1-1/2 inch slices and set aside.
  • Prepare the egg wash by combining egg and water in a small bowl; whisk lightly.
  • Brush the ring with the egg wash.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • In the meantime, prepare the Vanilla Glaze.
  • Place all the ingredients in a small saucepan and cook over medium-heat, stirring constantly just until combined and no lumps appear.
  • Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Remove Cinnamon Roll Wreath from oven and let stand a few minutes.
  • Drizzle with Vanilla Glaze.
  • Serve.
