No Yeast Required Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
Makes 16 small or 8 large rolls
Cinnamon Filling:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, very soft
Dough:
- 2-1/2 cups self-rising flour (all-purpose flour mixed with baking powder and salt)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and divided
Frosting
- 1-2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Combine the filling ingredients in a small bowl, then mix with a fork until well blended.
In a another, larger bowl, combine the self-rising flour, sugar and baking soda.
Whisk together the buttermilk and 4 tablespoons melted butter in a separate bowl, then pour into the middle of the dry ingredients. Stir together until the dough just comes together (do not overmix.)
Knead slightly with your hands until the dough forms into a ball, then slice it in half.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each half into a 12×8 inch rectangle.
Spread half the filling mixture into the center, leaving 1/4″ of the dough clear on all 4 sides, then roll up jelly roll style.. Pinch together the seam and roll into an 8 inch log.
Cut into 8 one inch slices. Repeat with the other dough half and place the rolls in a greased 13×9 inch pan.
Note: If you like larger rolls cut each roll in 4 (about 2 inches each) and place in a smaller baking dish and cook for 10 minutes longer.
Brush the cinnamon rolls with the remaining tablespoon of melted butter and bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Whisk together the powdered sugar and milk, one tablespoon at a time, until creamy. Drizzle onto hot cinnamon rolls and spread evenly.

I’d love to sample every one of them. YUM! There is something about the wonderful aroma of goodies baking in the oven. We don’t do a lot of baking in the summer so I’m looking forward to baking in the cooler months. Hope you’re having good weather. It’s been raining here for three days 🙁
Jovina Coughlin
I agree. It has been warm and sunny here. May get some rain Friday if any of the tropical storms head our way. Hope it clears up for you and you catch lots of fish.

I always keep an eye out for ideas for breakfast recipes to make when I have overnight guests, and these all look good! I will have to try the cinnamon rolls made without yeast for a much quicker version than my usual. But the first one to try, I think, will be the morning apple cake. I will try it with my husband this week, then will probably serve it to a friend who is coming in for his annual football fix next weekend. Thanks, Jovina!
Jovina Coughlin
The apple cake is nice an light but with loads of flavor. Great for breakfast. Is it Go Blue or Go State?
Anne
He is definitely Go Blue, and we are Go Green– teasing, fun and laughter for all!
Jovina Coughlin
Oh what fun!

Great post, yummy! I’d like to learn how to bake one of these days after retirement. For now, I’m interested in starting with cookies, so I’ll be searching your past posts for anything related to it. Thanks for your efforts.
Jovina Coughlin
