Serves: 12 rolls
 
Ingredients
  • 1¾ cup warm water
  • ⅜ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup oil
  • 2 Tbsp. yeast (I use SAF Instant)
  • ½ Tbsp. salt
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 5½ cups flour
  • ¼ cup of softened butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ Tb. cinnamon
  • Frosting
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • dash of salt
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 cups powder sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. orange juice concentrate
  • 1-2 Tbsp. milk if needed
Instructions
  1. Stir water, sugar, oil, and yeast in a stand mixer. If you are not using SAF yeast, then you will need 3 Tbsp. of regular yeast. Let sit for 10 minutes until mixture is foamy.
  2. Add salt, eggs, and flour. Using the dough hook, mix for 5-10 minutes.
  3. Turn off mixer, cover bowl with a towel and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
  4. Spray a cutting board with oil and dump out the dough. Do not use extra flour. Press dough into a rectangle. If you spray some oil on your hands first, it helps the dough not stick to your hands.
  5. Spread ¼ cup softened butter on the dough and then sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Starting from the bottom, roll dough into a long roll.
  6. Using a piece of thread or a thin knife, divide dough into four sections. Then cut each section into three pieces so you have twelve rolls total.
  7. Lightly grease a jelly roll pan (11x17) and place rolls on the pan.
  8. At this point, I turned the oven on to 400. The rolls will rise for about 10 minutes while the oven is preheating. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until rolls have a nice golden brown appearance.
  9. Combine ingredients for frosting in a bowl with hand mixer. If frosting is dry, add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until it reaches desired consistency. Allow rolls to cool for a couple minutes and then frost while still warm.
