Cinnamon Rolls – NO SOURDOUGH NEEDED

This is an easy way to make cinnamon rolls from scratch… they aren’t quite as good as our Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls but they are close. This is perfect if you don’t have sourdough.

You can choose to ice them or just give them a little sprinkle of powdered sugar. These remind me of old-fashioned cinnamon rolls as the dough is more of a biscuit texture, but oh so good!

I cut mine a little thinner and usually end up with 20-24 medium sized rolls.

Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

Dough:

  • 4 c.  Flour (If using self-rising flour you can omit the next 3 ingredients)
  • 1 T. baking powder
  • 1 t. baking soda
  • 1 t. salt
  • 1 c. shortening or butter (softened)
  • 1 1/2 – 2 c. Buttermilk (you can use regular milk and add 1 T. Vinegar)
  • 1 T. honey (optional)
  • 1/4 butter, melted (optional)

Dairy Free Cream Cheese Icing

One of my kiddos who loves Red Velvet Cake recently requested one for her birthday. We had to make it dairy-free… it was a little work but we succeeded. I used a boxed cake which said it was dairy-free.

I’ll try to update this with a printable recipe card later but you can print out the cream cheese icing recipe and write in the changes.

Grannie’s Tuna Salad

Mr. Awesome, his dad, and his brother went fishing a bit ago and his brother had brought some tuna salad for lunch. I guess it was pretty good because I keep hearing about it and about how amazing it is to eat with Frito scoops! I haven’t tried it yet but plan to do so soon!

I never got the chance to meet Grannie but I’ve tried some of her recipes and they have been AMAZING so I’m sure this one will be too!
