The Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls Ever

I’ve already made these beauties twice (in a month)! My family is never going to want the canned cinnamon rolls again. This recipe is so easy to follow and the video makes it even easier. making this non-cinnamon fan a lover of these rolls!

I love the cinnamon rolls but want to know if there is a separate dough recipe for sticky buns. I have watched many people on YouTube making them but they make it look so complicated.I did try one guys recipe using puffpastries and they did turn out very good. But I would love to make them from scratch, because I haven’t found any good ones in over 18 yrs. The ones I did find were horrible.

Rolls:

• 1/2 cup butter, melted

• 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Filling:
