Cinnamon Rolls – A Family Tradition
Cinnamon rolls are a family thing. My family really likes them and my Nana is really good at making them! Now that I have my own family, I determined that it was time for me to master the classic.

After many test runs, I have the measurements down so that your rolls should always turn out perfect.
I would go as far as to suggest you mix and knead the dough by hand. I have a stand mixer but there is just something about feeling the dough…

These look absolutely delicious, Marissa! I can’t wait to try them myself. My fiance has a severe gluten allergy, so I want to see if I can use this recipe and then make the modification for gluten free. I’ll share the adjustment if it works out! Hope you’re doing well. xoxo, Maggie
please do, I hope you enjoy them. They are worth all the effort!
