Peach Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

Ingredients:

• For the Dough:
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• For the Filling:
  • 1 cup chopped fresh or canned peaches (drained if canned)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup softened butter
• For the Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:
   • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm milk. Let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
   • Add the melted butter, salt, and egg to the yeast mixture and mix well.
   • Gradually add the flour, starting with 3 cups, until the dough begins to form and becomes smooth and elastic, about 7-10 minutes of kneading. You may need to add more flour if the dough is too sticky.
   • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
2. Prepare the Filling:
   • In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon.
   • Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
   • Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the butter. Distribute the chopped peaches over the sugar layer.
3. Shape the Rolls:
   • Roll the dough up tightly from the long edge, and pinch the seams to seal.
   • Cut into 12 even pieces and place in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
   • Cover and let rise for an additional 30 minutes.
4. Bake:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
   • Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
5. Prepare the Glaze:
   • While the rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to create a smooth glaze. Adjust the consistency with more milk or sugar if necessary.
6. Finish:
   • Remove the rolls from the oven and while still warm, drizzle the glaze over the top.
   • Allow to cool slightly before serving.
