The baking craze continues while in quarantine.  Cinnamon rolls with a twist (literally) are so fun and easy to make.  I can’t believe I used to DOUBLE the recipe!  My kids loved them and it was always great to share with my wonderful neighbors.  If you’re looking for something amazing to bake up this weekend, try these GIANT Cinnamon Twists.

Making the Dough

Beaten eggs in mixing bowl1
milk pouring into melted butter3
yeast whisked into milk and egg mixture5
sugar added to mixing bowl with eggs2
instant read thermometer in milk4
Flour added to mixing bowl with milk yeast mixture6

 

  1. Add eggs to the bowl of an electric mixer and beat well.
  2. Mix in sugar and salt.  Set aside.
  3. In a medium-size saucepan melt the butter.  Add milk.
  4. Heat mixture to 110℉.  Pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture. Mix well.
  5. Sprinkle yeast over milk mixture until the yeast has softened then stir in the yeast.
  6. Add 2-3 cups of flour and mix until smooth.
 

Rising the Dough

 
Dough in electric mixer1
Bowl of risen dough covered with white cloth3
melted butter in measuring cup5
Dough in a large bowl2
large bowl of dough with dough scraper4
Sugar and cinnamon mix in a bowl6
  1. Continue to add flour 1 cup at a time at low speed until smooth. The dough should be smooth and somewhat sticky.
  2. Place dough in a very large bowl that has been lightly oiled. 
  3. Cover with a cloth and let rise until the dough has doubled in size.
  4. Using a dough scraper, gently remove dough and place on a lightly floured surface to rest for a few minutes.
  5. Melt butter then set aside.
  6. In a small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon

Shaping Giant Cinnamon Twists

Dough folded over cinnamon sugar side. Pastry brush brushing off excess flour3

Sugar cinnamon mixture sprinkled on half of rolled dough2
Dough cut into 1-inch strips4

  1. Roll out each half of the dough (on a lightly floured surface) into a large rectangle that is 24 x 13 inches.
  2. Spread half of the dough with half of the melted butter.  Sprinkle with all for the cinnamon-sugar mixture. 
  3. Fold the top half of the dough over the sugar and cinnamon.  I like to brush off any remaining flour. 
  4. Cut the dough into 1-inch strips. 
  5. Take each strip and twist the dough. 
  6. Tie the twisted dough into a knot.

Place the knot on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper or that has been brushed with butter.  I can fit 9 twists per baking sheet.  Repeat with remaining strips of dough.  
Cover with a clean, dry towel and allow to rise for about 45-60 minutes or until the dough feels like a marshmallow when gently pressed.
 

Glazing

  • While the cinnamon twists are rising, prepare the sugar glaze.  Mix 1/4 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon corn syrup in a small saucepan.
  • Bring to a rapid boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Lightly brush the warm glaze over baked cinnamon twists.  This step puts a shiny glaze all over the cinnamon twists.

Icing Drizzle

  1. While the rolls are baking prepare the icing by mixing 2 cups of confectioners sugar with 1/4 cup of milk.
  2. The icing should be thin enough to drizzle off the whisk or spoon. Set aside.
  3. Once the twists have completely cooled drizzle glaze over each cinnamon twist
  4. Allow glaze to set completely.

Ingredients

Roll Dough

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons yeast
  • 5-6 cups flour

Sugar Cinnamon Filling

  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon

Clear Glaze

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup

Icing Glaze

  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 4 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Roll Dough

  1. In the large bowl (6-quart) of a mixer, beat eggs, sugar, and salt.  In a medium-size saucepan melt butter.  Add the milk and heat until the milk is lightly warmed about 110 degrees.  Remove from the heat and pour into the egg mixture.  Mix until combined.  Sprinkle yeast over milk mixture and let stand for about 2 minutes to soften the yeast.  Whisk into the milk mixture.  Add 6 cups of flour and beat until dough is smooth.  Add remaining flour 1 cup at a time until dough is smooth and slightly sticky or until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl while mixing.  Place the dough in a very large bowl that has been lightly oiled.  Cover with a clean cloth and allow to rise until doubled in size.  About 45-60 minutes.
  2. Gently remove the dough from the bowl. Let rest a few minutes.  Roll the dough into a 24 x 13-inch rectangle.  Spread the lower half of the dough with butter and sprinkle with the sugar-cinnamon mixture.  Fold down the upper half of the dough over the cinnamon sugar.  Cut into 1-inch strips.  Twist each strip of dough then tie in a knot.  Place on a greased baking sheet.  Cover with a clean cloth and allow to rise for 30-45 minutes.  Bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.  Remove from oven and brush with the clear glaze.  When the rolls have cooled drizzle with sugar glaze using a fork.

Cinnamon sugar filling

  1. Melt butter then set aside. In a small bowl stir the cinnamon and sugar together. Set aside until ready to use.

Clear Glaze

  1. Mix all ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a rapid boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before brushing on baked twists.

Icing Glaze

  1. Combine the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a medium-size bowl. Mix well. The glaze should drizzle from the spoon or whisk.

    I am not sure i understand how you tied your knot. Once they are twistEd, do you juSt cross them over and pull through once? Thank you sO much – these look delicious And i can’t Wait to try Them.

      Twist the strip of dough then I loop it around a couple of my fingers and just tie a loose knot. One end of the strip should come through the center and one end will be on the bottom. You can play with it a bit. The end pieces can be tucked under if you want to do that. It’s hard to describe. I’m sure whatever knot you come up with looks great.

    THANK you for another fantastic recipe. We had these this evening after our dinner of Pork Chile Verde (another delicious recipe from your blog). I'm so glad you're blogging again. I LOVE the recipes you share and also the beautiful photographs.

    I cut the recipe down to just 1/4 and got 18 good size (not giant) twists. I did half with cardamom filling to satisfy my Scandinavian taste. I brushed them with a cardamom simple syrup that I made previously and then drizzled them with the icing.

    DELICIOUS and great texture!

    I am in love with your recipes…no joke this blog has taught me how to cook and my family is forever grateful to you! I have a question about storing these rolls just to clarify….I want to make them a week in advance of a party I am having and freeze them and then thaw them out. Should I wait to glaze and frost them when they have thawed the day of the party, or can I glaze them and freeze the glaze right on the roll as well? Does that make sense? I just am imagining thawing the roles and having the frozen glaze turn them to goo….not the icing, but the glaze… Anyway, if you had time to answer this I would be so grateful. Thanks again for this beyond amazing blog.

      Thank you so much for your kind comments. You have made my day. You can do either way. If you glaze and ice them before freezing, simply thaw at room temperature uncovered. Remove any plastic. If they are thawed while being, covered then the rolls will sweat and the icing will turn to goo. You can also just wait to ice and glaze them after thawing. I guess it depends on the amount of time you have. I hope I answered any questions. Best of luck.

    Hello, thank you for this awsome recipe, I tried this and loved it, so I want to do it again 🙂 just one question, last time I used royal icing to ice the twists, but with only one egg I had way too much icing, so I wanted to try your milk icing this time. Anyway I just wanted to ask, does the icing solidify once spread? Or does it stay "liquid"?
    Many thanks for your help. Have a good evening.

    • Janet Barton says

      September 17, 2014 at 3:12 am

      It does solidity, but if it is covered air tight it will liquify. Just make sure you drizzle the icing on when the rolls are completely cool and it will look more like the royal icing. The icing has a softer bite than royal icing.

      I freeze them in plastic containers. Don't stack them or the icing will stick. Thaw uncovered for about 30 minutes. They will be fresh and nice like the day they were baked.

    I love these buns, I have made them about 10 times now. I always make 1/2 recipe dough and whole recipe cinnamon mixture. Usually I get about 12 to 15 buns depending on how I roll out the dough. They are easy to make the night before just put the finished buns in the fridge overnight. They need about 2 hrs rise time in the morning and then bake, fresh cinnamon buns for breakfast. This is a great fail proof recipe, thank you Janet.

    Hey Janet,
    Just wanted to let you know in case anyone else asked this question to you in the future, that freezing the rolls before letting them rise the second time worked perfectly. It took about 3 hours for them to rise when I took them out of the freezer but it was so awesome. All I had to do on the day of the shower was let them rise and cook. They were perfect. Thank you again for this recipe!!!!!!

    Hi Janet,
    I am looking for a recipe like this however, is there a way to substitute some potatoes instead in this? I was told and from my experience they will stay more moist for a longer duration.However, I'm not sure how to go about doing this. Any ideas?

    Also question #2:
    My hubby's family's has over 60+ members and that is only his brothers and sisters and their children. Many family members are allergic to gluten. I am really trying to find recipes, like this one, that are delicious and beautiful that I can make for them. However, we've found MOST "Gluten Free" recipes to be absolutely dreadful, hard, and dry. We've found only one boxed mix for gluten-free brownies that were absolutely delicious but I hate making anything boxed. Cooking and Baking from Scratch is the way for me and I need some help and guidance. Think you are up for the challenge?

    Janet,

    I am DYING to try these rolls but I have a question.
    First, let me say, I am terrified of making anything with yeast.
    But, your pictorial makes it seem like I could do it, so, I am going to try!
    My question is what type of yeast do you use? Is it the instant (?) or the
    active dry yeast (?) Those are the 2 options, right? I'm just getting into baking.
    I apologize for being such a novice.
    Thanks in advance for your response!

      Remember, yeast is your friend. Don't be afraid. I use SAF instant yeast 99.9% of the time for baking yeast breads. If you only have active dry yeast, that's ok. Make sure you dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. Let the yeast and water mixture sit for about 10 minutes. The yeast should begin to foam up. That means it's good yeast and ready to go. Just follow the instructions and you shouldn't have any problems. Good luck. You can do it!!

    You could try putting the rolls in the refrigerator overnight, covered with plastic wrap then removing and if they need more rising time, let them sit out until risen then bake. I have never tried it. Let me know if you do and how it works. Thanks.

    The first time I made these I didn't half the recipe and I made half the dough into dinner rolls (Um, A-MAZ-ING)Since then I usually do half the recipe, and they turn out great! But pretty much I love these things. There are few things in life that are better. 🙂

    Yes, Annie, you can definitely half the recipe. Start with 5 cups of flour and if the dough seems sticky slowly add more flour until it is a smooth consistancy. The original recipe makes about 40 twists. Good luck.

    I am Annie from Pakistan. I like this recipe you have here. Do you think I could halve the ingredients to make half the amount? I do not have Kitchen-aid and only a pair of hands to rely on so kneading 10-12 cups of flour is going to be quite a mammoth task. If I can reduce the quantity by half, would all the ingredients reduce by half automatically? How much flour should I add? 5 or 6 cups?
    How many twists did your batch make? Thanks, Annie

    A twisted loaf…what a great idea. Hmmm you could try lowering the temperature of the oven so that they bake completely. I don't know how much of the dough you are putting into the pan, but try only filling the pan 1/3 full???? Let me know what works. I wonder if making into a pull-a-part like monkey bread would work??

    Boy, would I LOVE a recipe for great Chocolate Babka! You know I was thinking after I posted the recipe that I should give another indication for the temperature. Yes it is Fahrenheit. Just stick you finger in the milk. It should feel warm, but not hot. The egg mixture will cool down the milk slightly so that it's not too hot for the yeast. You can do this. Breads are a piece of cake. Just remember. Yeast is my friend, yeast is my friend….

    Good luck with your luncheon. it sounds awesome. I'm so jealous. Let me know when you want a Mormon at that luncheon. What a great combination – Jewish-Muslim-Mormon. We really have so much in common. Religiously speaking. I'll fly in for the occasion.

    You are not going to believe this!
    All I can say is great minds think alike.
    This is really close to Chocolate Babka- I saw a recipe online on SmittenKicten. And I was hoping to impress some Jewish friends I have made here who have invited me over for lunch to have some friendly Jewish-Muslim chat.
    I have never attempted bread making before and your clear instructions on the first & second rise will probably clear all misconceptions I have about it.

    Just one question: 110 degrees would be in Fahrenheit I believe. And if i don't have a temperature reader, any idea on how I can test it by just dipping the baby finger in it?

    Thank you so much.

This is a very quick version of Christmas Stollen This is a very quick version of Christmas Stollen flavored bread. The sweet dough is filled with dried fruit, candied orange and lemon peel, and almonds. 

The dough is wrapped around a ribbon of marzipan filling. Bake until golden then dust heavily with powder sugar. 

I like to toast a thick slice then scoop out the warm marzipan and spread it all over my toasted Stollen 🤤
