Quick & Easy Cinnamon Rolls with a Maple Glaze

Step 1

Pre- heat oven to 350 degrees (180 degrees). Lightly grease and flour an 8 inch pan (pie, cake or even a 12 medium size muffin tin) I used a pie plate.

Step 2

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt, then cut in the cold butter* until it resembles coarse crumbs, then add the milk and mix with the fork until the mixture becomes a soft dough, turn it onto a lightly floured surface and knead just until dough is thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Roll dough out to rectangle that is 1/8 inch thick.

Step 4

In a small bowl mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon (if using).

Step 5

Spread with butter and sprinkle with brown sugar / cinnamon mixture,  pat down lightly. Starting with long end roll into a log, cut into 12-13 pieces, place the slices cut side up in the prepared baking dish (pie, cake or muffin). Bake for approximately 30-35 minutes (or until golden).  Let cool before drizzling with glaze. Enjoy!

Step 6

In a small bowl combine powdered sugar, vanilla and maple syrup if it is too thick add 1/2 tablespoon of the cream or milk, mix until smooth. Pour over cooled cinnamon buns.
