Ingredients Required

For the Dough:

• 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 package (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
• ½ cup warm water (110°F)
• ¾ cup warm milk (110°F)
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs

For the Filling:

• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 ½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

For the Glaze:

• 2 cups powdered sugar
• ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3-4 tablespoons milk

How to Make Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Rolls

1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until it’s frothy. Then, add the warm milk, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and salt.
   • Slowly add the flour, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
   • Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for easier kneading. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
2. Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Set aside. Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle (about 16×12 inches). Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
3. Roll and Cut the Dough: Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal slices using a sharp knife or dough cutter. Place the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll. Cover the dish with a towel and let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes.
4. Bake the Rolls: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown on top. Watch them closely to make sure they don’t overbake.
5. Prepare the Glaze: As the rolls bake, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, melt the butter. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and enough milk to achieve your desired consistency.
6. Glaze the Rolls: Once the rolls are out of the oven, allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before drizzling the glaze generously over the top. Serve warm and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

• Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This helps the dough mix more evenly and rise better.
• Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on the rolls to avoid overbaking, which can make them dry.
• Double the Glaze: If you love extra sweetness, make a double batch of glaze and serve it on the side for drizzling.

What to Serve with Cinnamon Rolls

1. Fresh Fruit Salad: The light and refreshing taste of a fruit salad balances the richness of the rolls.
2. Scrambled Eggs: A protein-packed side that complements the sweetness of the rolls.
3. Bacon or Sausage: The savory flavors of bacon or sausage provide a nice contrast to the cinnamon rolls.
4. Greek Yogurt with Honey: Adds a tangy and creamy element to your breakfast.
5. Hot Coffee or Espresso: The bold flavors of coffee pair perfectly with the sweet rolls.
6. Orange Juice or Mimosa: A citrusy drink adds a bright note to the meal.

There’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked cinnamon rolls filling your kitchen. This Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Rolls recipe is easy to follow and delivers that same delicious experience you’d get at the farm.
