Ingredients
Four cups plain flour; One teaspoon salt, One sachet instant yeast (7g); Half cup granulated sugar; One-third cup margarine, melted; Two large eggs; 200 ml warm fresh milk
Filling
One-third cup margarine, melted; One cup old-fashioned brown sugar; Two tablespoons cinnamon; Half cup raisins; Glace icing; One cup icing sugar, sifted; Warm water
Equipment
Two mixing bowls; measuring jug; measuring cups; measuring spoons; sharp knife; oven/baking tray; rolling pin and sieve.
Instructions
- Get all the above-mentioned ingredients together. Put flour, sugar, salt and yeast in the mixing bowl. Give a quick whisk until just combined. Make a well in the middle and add the margarine, eggs and milk. Gently mix until combined and a dough is formed. 2. Sprinkle some flour on your working area and knead the dough for 15 minutes or until it is smooth and pliable. Lightly oil a mixing bowl and put your kneaded dough there. Cover lightly with cling wrap. 3. Place the bowl in a warm area and allow the dough to rise until double in size (About one hour. It could take longer if the place is not as warm). While the dough is rising, prepare the filling by simply combining all the ingredients together, save for the raisins. Set aside. 4. After the dough has doubled, dust some more flour on your working area. Roll out the dough into a rectangle that is about one centimetre thick. Spread the filling evenly onto the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle the raisins on top of the filling. 5. Begin rolling the dough over from the longest side (the length). You should now have an elongated Swiss roll look-alike. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into about two centimetres thick discs. Grease your baking tin or oven tray. Line it with some baking paper. Place your discs (the cinnamon rolls) onto the prepared baking tin, about 1 centimetre apart. 6. Cover with a damp towel and place in a warm area again until they have doubled in size (about 30 minutes). While they double in size, preheat the oven to bake — 180 degrees Celsius.. 7. After they have doubled in size, bake in preheat oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. While they are baking, prepare the glace icing by simply putting the icing sugar in a small bowl. Add water gradually until it is a thick smooth paste that can easily coat the back of a spoon. 8. Drizzle the glace icing onto the cinnamon rolls as soon as they come out of the oven. Store in an air-tight container. Enjoy! — allrecipes
