Whole Wheat Cinnamon Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir the yeast into the warm water and allow to stand for 5 minutes or until frothy.
• Stir in eggs and butter; beat in 5 cups of hot roll mix; let rest 2 minutes.
• Add enough of the remaining mix to make a soft dough, turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Clean and grease bowl, place dough in bowl, turning to grease all sides.
• Cover with a damp towel, let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk.
• Prepare the Cinnamon Butter by melting the butter in a small saucepan. Stir in cinnamon, brown sugar, raisins and nuts; continue stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Prepare the Caramel Topping by combining the whipping cream, brown sugar and nuts in a small bowl; set aside.
• Punch down dough and let rest for 10 minutes; on lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 20 inch x 12 inch rectangle, about 1 inch thick.
• Spread with Cinnamon Butter; roll up jelly-roll fashion; using a sharp knife, cut dough into twenty 1 inch slices.
• Spread Caramel Topping evenly in a 15 inch x 10 inch baking sheet with raised sides; arrange slices on topping, cut-side down; cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, bake rolls 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
• Cool on a rack for 5 minutes, invert rolls and pan onto a large platter; remove pan.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir yeast into water to soften. Add milk, shortening, honey, eggs, lemon juice, salt, soy flour, and 2 cups whole wheat flour. Beat vigorously for 2 minutes. Gradually add flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the side of the bowl.
• Turn dough onto a floured work surface. Knead, adding flour a little at a time, until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Place dough into an oiled bowl. Turn to coat the entire ball of dough with oil. Cover with a tightly woven towel and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Turn dough onto a lightly oiled work surface and divide in half. Roll each half with a rolling pin into a 12 by 18-inch rectangle. Brush dough with melted butter, leaving a 1/2-inch border along one long side of the rectangle free of butter.
• Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, raisins, and nuts. Sprinkle evenly over each portion of dough. Roll up into 2 (18-inch) cylinders and pinch the loose edge to the cylinder. Cut into 30 rolls (15 from each cylinder) and place cut-side up into 2 parchment-lined 9 by 13-inch pans. Cover with a tightly woven towel and let rise until almost doubled, about 45 minutes.
• About 10 minutes before baking, preheat oven to 375 degrees (350 if using glass pans). Bake for 20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the rolls reaches 190 degrees. Leave the rolls in the pan to cool since they benefit from the steam -- it makes them softer. Allow the rolls to cool for 15 minutes.
• Combine powdered sugar, rum extract, and milk. Mixture should be the consistency of honey (if it isn't, adjust by adding more cream to thin it or powdered sugar to thicken it). Drizzle over the top of the rolls.

Steps:

• Notes: *You can use coconut oil; cube it first and stick it in the fridge till it's cold, **To make butter milk, add a cap full of vinegar to your cup of milk; stir n let sit for a few minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450F, and grease a 12 cup muffin tin; set aside.
• Sift both flours (even if it's already pre-sifted), baking soda and baking powder into a large bowl. Cut in butter until the flour mix is crumbly and no large chunks remain.
• Add milk and mix it quickly until the dough begins pulling together. Sprinkle some flour on your work space, turn out dough and knead for a few SECONDS. Don't over knead!
• Roll out dough into a rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Empty contents of chai tea bag into a bowl, use a fork to beat it together with the softened margarine, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Spread mixture onto dough, then roll up into a long tube (roll from the long side of the dough), and pinch dough to stop rolls from undoing! Cut into 1 inch sections, and put into prepared muffin tin. Bake for 12 minutes, cool slightly and enjoy!
• You can add or decrease the spices and sugar to your preference :).

Steps:

• To make the filling, in a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the butter with the agave nectar until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the cinnamon and flour and mix well. Stir in the walnuts and raisins. Refrigerate to firm the mixture for a minimum of 2 hours.
• Begin the dough by cooking the potato in boiling water for 25 to 30 minutes, until soft. Drain, reserving 3/4 cup of the starchy water. Mash the potato and reserved water until smooth. Set aside and cool to room temperature.
• Place the yeast, warm water, and 2 tablespoons of the agave nectar in a food processor. Pulse a few times to dissolve the yeast. Let this mixture sit about 10 minutes, or until foamy. Add the cooled mashed potato, milk, the remaining ¼ cup agave nectar, the melted butter, and salt. Pulse several times to mix. Add the flour a little at a time, pulsing to blend until a soft dough forms. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Gently knead by hand for approximately 1 minute, or until smooth and elastic. Place the kneaded dough into a lightly oiled bowl. Let rest for 20 minutes. Punch down the dough and turn in the bowl to coat with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in a draft-free area to rise. Let the dough rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• While the dough is rising, prepare the glaze. Place all the glaze ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Refrigerate until ready to use. The mixture will thicken slightly when chilled.
• To prepare the sticky buns, line 2 rectangular jelly roll pans with parchment paper and lightly spray with canola oil spray. Gently punch the dough down. Roll out on a lightly floured work surface to form an 18- by 20-inch rectangle. (The dough will be sticky to work with.) Spread the filling mixture over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Beginning from a long side, carefully roll the dough up to form a long log. Slice the log into 18 equal pieces. Place the slices onto the prepared pans with the edges of the rolls lightly touching together. Fill 1 pan entirely before starting the next, so most rolls will fit snuggly together. Brush the tops with the melted butter. Cover with a damp kitchen cloth and place in a warm, draft-free area. Allow the rolls to rise for 40 to 45 minutes, until doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• When the rolls are fully risen, bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let the rolls cool on the pans for 10 to 15 minutes before drizzling with the glaze. Pull apart gently to serve. Best served warm.
• Store the leftover rolls in the refrigerator and reheat in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes before serving.
