Micro batch baking – the invitation is to get all the way in which into it with me!  That is all very Kristin Wiig  making herself a single, unhappy cupcake within the film Bridesmaids, save for the truth that there’s completely zero disappointment in me consuming a single cinnamon roll over the kitchen sink in my pajamas.  That is, actually, what I name luxurious.  This single-serve cinnamon roll deserves a correct dwelling and printable recipe right here on the weblog earlier than I resolve if this entire collection is an e book or a zine one thing – this actually is one thing (and a correct cookbook would take too lengthy).

This singular cinnamon roll (which might, after all be doubled for 2 folks or simply as a result of) is gooey and greatest loved heat with cream cheese glaze dripping down your arms. You’ll be able to completely use a fork if that you must sustain appearances, however actually what enjoyable is that?

It is a yeasted, quick-rise cinnamon roll.  Simply because we’re making one roll doesn’t imply we’re skimping on approach and texture.  Now, let’s make this excellent lil’ cinnamon bun.

ingredients for single serve cinnamon roll in small bowls

Listed below are the elements you’ll have to make this singe serve cinnamon roll recipe:

•  all-purpose flour

•  speedy rise yeast

•  baking powder

•  granulated sugar

•  kosher salt

•  vegetable oil

•  entire milk or any milk you like

•  butter, both softened or melted butter

•  brown sugar

•  floor cinnamon

•  cream cheese

•  powdered sugar

•  vanilla extract

* you can make this recipe vegan by substituting another milk for the dough, vegan butter unfold for the filling, and a simple powdered sugar glaze for the topping.

In a small bowl, whisk collectively the dry elements:  flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, prompt yeast (like RapidRise), and salt.

Within the microwave, heat milk and oil till simply heat to the contact.  It’s okay if the 2 don’t combine effectively collectively, it’ll come along with the dough.

Add the moist combination to the dry elements and use a small spatula to kind a tough dough. The dough shall be fairly shaggy and moist however not sticky.  If you happen to discover that your dough is on the dry facet (aka you’re not down right here in steamy New Orleans) add extra heat milk a teaspoon at a time.  If you happen to discover that your dough is on the moist facet, simply flour the counter generously to knead.

Flip the dough onto a frivolously floured counter and knead for 25 turns or so.  You’ll really feel the gluten begin to kind because the dough springs again from the stress of kneading.  Drape a clear kitchen towel over the bouncy dough and permit to relaxation for 10 minutes.

Roll the dough into a skinny rectangle about 9×6-inches lengthy.  I discovered it best to roll the dough on a really frivolously floured floor so the dough can stick a bit to the floor.  Somewhat little bit of traction is useful for the reason that dough doesn’t have a ton of time to relaxation and calm down.

Unfold dough with softened butter and sprinkle with brown sugar and floor cinnamon.

To create an considerable roll, from the 6-inch facet of the dough, lower three lengthy strips.  Roll one strip right into a coil.  Place that coil on the second strip and proceed to roll the coil. Proceed with the final strip of dough to create a beneficiant roll.

Place the roll in an oven-safe ramekin or dish coated with cooking spray or greased with butter.

Pictured above is a 1-cup ramekin. I like for the roll to bake in one thing cozy so it maintains its coil form.

Cowl the ramekin loosely with a kitchen towel and permit to relaxation and rise for Half-hour whereas the oven preheats.  I go away the lined ramekin within the warmest spot in my kitchen for this brief rise – proper close to the again burner outdoors the warming oven.

Bake within the higher third of the oven till simply golden across the edges and effervescent from the middle.

Whereas the roll bakes I make a fast cream cheese glaze, although you can at all times simply make a easy milk and powdered sugar glaze should you don’t have cream cheese readily available.
