Fast and Easy Cinnamon buns!

Hi everyone!

Tomorrow morning I am leaving on a bus trip to Saskatchewan to see the Bombers play the Riders! I am super excited and hopeful that the Bombers will pull off a win! The only downside to the trip is that the bus only stops at McDonalds!

In an effort to avoid eating fast food at all costs I am whipping up a batch of fresh, crumbly cinnamon buns tonight!

This recipe is so fast and easy! I often bake a batch in the morning for breakfast because my boyfriend Jesse loves them! I think tonight I'll make a double batch because I have a feeling they won't last the bus ride there! :)

Here is the recipe, I hope you'll try them!


Ingredients:

Dough
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp butter, softened
3/4 cup milk

Filling
4 tbsp butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
3 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions:

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in softened butter. Stir in the milk to form a soft dough.

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4" thick.

Spread the filling on the dough. Roll up the rectangle, and with a sharp knife slice into 18 small rolls.

Place the rolls in the 9x9" pan and bake in a pre-heated 400-degree oven 20-25 minutes.

Let the buns cool down for at least 5 minutes and then enjoy!
