Christmas is just 6 days away and if you have family coming to town to celebrate, Chef Shayna has a great item to make for breakfast that will be a crowd pleaser.
Ingredients:
Milk
Sugar
Vegetable Oil
Flour
Baking Powder
Baking Soda
Salt
Yeast
Butter
Sugar
Cinnamon
Directions:
1. Stir together your Milk, Sugar & Oil and Scald. That means, to heat it over the stove until just before boiling. Remove from the heat and let it cool to warm for approximately 10-15 minutes.
2. While the liquid is heating, in a separate bowl, combine Flour with 1 heaping teaspoon of Baking Powder, 1 scant teaspoon Baking Soda, and 1 Tablespoon Salt.
3. It is important to let the milk cool to a warm temperature. If you addd the yeast while it is still hot you will deactivate (or kill) the yeast. Proof the yeast by storing together with a whisk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
4. Stir in 4 cups of Flour and let rise for an hour. Then punch down dough and add an additional 1/2-3/4 cup dough until well combined and the dough is not sticky. Let it chill in fridge for 30 minutes so it is easier to work with.
5. Next get ready for the fun part... rolling out the dough to make the Cinnamon Rolls!
