The starting point for these indulgent cinnamon rolls is our two-ingredient dough, which we enrich with an egg, some vanilla extract, and a little icing sugar.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, icing sugar and baking powder with a pinch of salt, then set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, vanilla and egg until combined. Add the yogurt mixture to the flour mixture; stir well with a wooden spoon until just combined and then knead the mixture in the bowl for 2 minutes.
  2. Tip the dough onto a work surface and knead the mixture for 2 minutes, until smooth, dusting with the extra flour if needed. Transfer the dough to a large piece of baking paper that’s misted with cooking spray. Roll out the dough to a rectangle about 38cm x 23cm.
  3. Brush the dough all over with the melted spread. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle this all over the dough. Starting with a long edge, roll up tightly to form a long roll. Cut the roll into 15 x 2.5cm slices. Arrange in a medium rectangular baking dish that’s been misted with cooking spray, leaving a little room between them to expand. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until risen and lightly browned. Let them stand for 10 minutes in the dish, to cool slightly.
  4. Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine the icing sugar, yogurt and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls and serve.
