My family really missed my yeast bread that I have regularly served during weekend. Although have baked all type of yeast bread but not this Cinnamon Rolls made from scratch.
This is no fail recipe, it can be made with or without egg. If you prefer them with egg, reduce the milk to 3/4 cup and add an egg. The rest, follow the same recipe below.
You can add more to the dough like nuts, raisins or just leave them simple. Feel free to ice these Cinnamon Rolls but we love them without it.
