Maple syrup sweetens these lovely cinnamon buns. I make the dough in my bread machine before popping the rolls in the oven. My husband prefers them warm.—Juanita Carlsen, North Bend, Oregon

Mini Maple Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

Prep: 20 min. + rising Bake: 20 min.

Yield: 24 Servings

20 20 40

Ingredients

2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup butter, softened
1 egg
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups bread flour
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
TOPPING:
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons bread flour
4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons cold butter
MAPLE ICING:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 to 2 teaspoons milk

Directions

In bread machine pan, place the first seven ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or bread flour if needed).
When the cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into two 12-in. x 7-in. rectangles. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle half over each rectangle. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting from a long side; pinch seam to seal.
Cut each roll into 12 slices. Place cut side down in one greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 20 minutes.
Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar, butter, syrup and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Spread over warm rolls. Yield: 2 dozen.

Editor's Note: We recommend you do not use a bread machine's time-delay feature for this recipe.

Big Batch Baked Goods

We enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

I would LOVE to make this recipe but I do not have a bread machine; is there a way to still make it? any suggestions?

I would definitely make these again. However, while this is a nice change of pace, I think I prefer the classic cinnamon roll taste. That may be because I thought there was too strong of a butter taste in the icing to let the maple flavor really shine. I might try unflavored shortening next time. I really liked making mini rolls so each of my three toddlers could have a whole one. They thought that was pretty special :)

This is the best cinnamon roll recipe!! I will never try another one. I do have to bake mine at 350 degrees, but that just might be my oven. I also use a slightly different icing recipe. Thank you so much for this recipe! It will be a family favorite for years to come!

These cinnamon rolls are very good. I would probably use less butter in the filling and icing.

These are amazing...and surprisingly easy to make thanks to the bread machine! My family loves the added touch of maple flavor, and the dough is fresh and yeasty-tasting. Our favorite recipe we've found!
