A delicious cinnamon roll recipe with a marmalade twist
Prep Time 1 hour 45 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 2 hours

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Tbs melted butter
  • 4 Tbs water
  • ½ box instant vanilla pudding half of the 3.4 oz box
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 Tbs sugar
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4 cups Bob's Red Mill Organic Unbleached All-Purpose White Flour
  • tsp yeast
Filling
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup marmalade
Frosting
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup butter softened
  • cups powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • tsp milk
  • 1-2 Tbs marmalade if desired

Method
 

  1. Place the first 9 ingredients in the bread machine (butter through yeast).
  2. Set bread machine for the dough cycle (should be about 1.5 hours). Knead and let rise several times if not using a bread machine.
  3. Remove dough from bread machine and roll out to a 17"x10" rectangle, on a lightly floured surface.
  4. Spread marmalade over dough, leaving a small gap around the edges. Cover with softened butter and sprinkle with brown sugar.
  5. Roll dough from long end, like a jellyroll.
  6. Pinch ends to close.
  7. Slice rolled dough into ½" slices. This is easy to do using unflavored dental floss.
  8. Place rolls into greased pan and let rise until doubled. This works best if you cover pan with a clean towel and place on top of the oven while it preheats.
  9. Bake rolls at 350°, for 15-20 minutes, until golden.
  10. Mix all frosting ingredients until smooth, adding marmalade if you'd like a little more orange flavor. Spread on slightly cooled rolls.
