Cinnamon Roll Muffins

Cinnamon rolls are a favourite 
with my family, especially Grandkids.
I get asked to make them often.
For a change, I decided to bake 
them as muffins and add some walnuts.

They didn't last long....


There's no yeast used in my cinnamon roll recipe.




Ingredients:
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs at room temperature, beaten
3/4 cup milk at room temperature
1/2 cup melted butter cooled


(Brown Sugar spread mixture)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup melted butter 
3 tbsp. cinnamon


1/2 cup chopped walnuts.(Optional)
Raisins, currants or other nuts may be used also.

Directions:
Preheat Oven to 375 degrees.

 Make the brown sugar spread mixture 
and refrigerate, to let it thicken,
making it easier to spread.
In a small bowl,
mix together the brown sugar, 
melted butter and cinnamon.
Place in the refrigerator to cool.


In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 
salt, baking powder and sugar.

 In a smaller bowl, 
whisk together the eggs, 
milk and melted butter.


 Combine the egg mixture with the 
flour mixture to make a dough.
knead about 10 times.

 Roll dough out approx. 12'by16"


 Spread the brown sugar spread 
mixture with a spatula on top.
Sprinkle the chopped walnuts. (optional)



Roll up to form a log.


I sliced them about 3/4 inch thick,
yields 22 muffins. 
For a larger muffin,
slice 1" thick.


I press some walnuts in the top of the muffin
(I love walnuts)


Place in greased muffin tins.



Bake at 375 deg. for approx. 20 minutes.


 Delicious!
Enjoy!
