This recipe has been revised and updated here!
These are based the Pioneer Woman's Cinnamon Rolls recipe. I don't get in the habit of fixing what ain't broke, but I tweak.
We don't eat wheat (unless I cave and buy the Organic Artisan Breads from BJs, yum yum yum) at home and have been using spelt flour instead. I can make this recipe entirely out of organic ingredients. It somehow makes me feel better. Somehow.
(Oops, didn't mix the frosting enough. I was hungry and impatient okay?)
Ingredients:
- 1 quart raw organic milk
- 1 cup grapeseed oil
- 3/4 cup organic sugar
- 2 packages Active Dry Yeast, 0.25 Ounce Packets, or 4 1/2 teaspoons.
- 8 cups (Plus 1 Cup Extra, Separated) spelt flour
- 1 teaspoon (heaping) Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon (scant) Baking Soda
- 1 Tablespoon (heaping) sea salt
- Plenty Of Melted Organic Butter
- 1 cup organic sugar
- Generous Sprinkling Of Organic Cinnamon
Mix the milk, vegetable oil and sugar in a pan. Scald the mixture (heat until just before the boiling point). Turn off heat and leave to cool 45 minutes to 1 hour. When the mixture is lukewarm to warm, but NOT hot, sprinkle in both packages of Active Dry Yeast. Let this sit for a minute. Then add 8 cups of all-purpose flour. Stir mixture together. Cover and let rise for at least an hour.
After rising for at least an hour, add 1 more cup of flour, the baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir mixture together. (At this point, you could cover the dough and put it in the fridge until you need it – overnight or even a day or two, if necessary. Just keep your eye on it and if it starts to overflow out of the pan, just punch it down).
Now, starting at the opposite end, begin rolling the dough in a neat line toward you. Keep the roll relatively tight as you go. Next, pinch the seam of the roll to seal it.
Then begin cutting the rolls approximately ¾ to 1 inch thick and laying them in the buttered pans.
Spread 1 tablespoon of melted butter in your dish. I use a 13x9 inch glass baking dish.
Repeat this process with the other half of the dough. Let the rolls rise for 20 to 30 minutes, then bake at 375 degrees until light golden brown, about 15 to 18 minutes.
Cool slightly and top with frosting of your choice.

This recipe makes a lot.

Do you need to let it rise again after adding the additional cup of flour?
