Easiest Cinnamon Rolls I've Ever Made - Without Yeast!!

My family loves Cinnamon rolls. Who doesn't??? Warm, sweet, sugary, cinnamony (if that's a word), a great start to your morning with a big ole cup of coffee. My problem is, yeast and I only agree to disagree. Anything I make with yeast always screws up, one way or another. This recipe is the easiest and best recipe for no yeast cinnamon rolls I've ever tried. It's simple, easy and soooo yummy!!

Ingredients:

*DOUGH*

2 Cups Self Rising Flour

1/2 Teaspoon Salt

2 Tablespoons Sugar

1/2 Cup Melted Butter

2/3 Cup Milk (I used 2%, but you can use whatever you like)

1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract

*FILLING*

3 Tablespoons Melted Butter

1/4 Cup White Sugar

1/4 Cup Light Brown Sugar

3 Tablespoons Cinnamon

*GLAZE*

1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar (more if needed)

1 Tablespoon Melted Butter (more if needed)

1 Tablespoon Half and Half (more if needed)

For your dough, mix all those ingredients together until it forms a soft ball that isn't sticky. You may need to use a little extra flour to get it to the non-sticky stage. Once you've got your pretty little ball of dough, it's time to roll it out. I sprinkle a tad bit of flour out on my surface I'm gonna be rolling my dough out on. Roll your dough out into a rectangular shape, or as close as you can get to it. I rolled mine out to about a 1/4 of an inch in thickness. 

Once you've got your dough all rolled out, you're ready to mix your filling ingredients together and coat the entire surface of your dough, all the way to the edges. The mixture is going to be a really dark brown, because of the cinnamon. I used a pastry brush and brushed my filling on. Trust me, it's a lot easier with the brush, but it's totally up to you. Just get all that yummy stuff on the dough! 

Next it's time to roll it all up. Roll your yummy cinnamon mixture covered dough into a log. Some of your filling may try to leak out, it's not a total disaster if it does, just try not to lose too much of it. Once you've got it all rolled up, you're ready to cut your log into 1/2" pieces. Place your cinnamon rolls on a lightly greased baking sheet or pan. I used a round cake pan and my rolls were touching each other, but you can separate yours slightly if you want. 

I baked my cinnamon rolls at 400 degrees until they were golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. After they've baked, and have your house smelling like a bakery, driving your family insane with hunger, let them cool for a few minutes then mix your glaze ingredients together. This was a tough one for me, I had to keep adding extra powdered sugar to get the correct consistency, which to me looked a little thicker than Elmer's glue. Once you've got the glaze to the consistency you want, drizzle it over the top of your cinnamon rolls. I let mine set for a few minutes so the glaze could "set up".

These cinnamon rolls were so good! Moist, warm, sweet! Just awesomely good! I'm sure there are many variations, additions and other tricks you can use when making these. I'd love if you'd share any ideas you have!! But you MUST try these!! Soon!!
