  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)

๐Ÿ‘จ‍๐Ÿณ How to Make Potato Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until frothy. Add mashed potatoes, butter, eggs, and salt. Mix well.

Gradually add flour, 1 cup at a time, until a soft dough forms. Knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours or until doubled.

Step 2: Make the Filling

In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

Step 3: Roll, Fill & Shape

Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (about 16x12 inches). Spread softened butter over the surface, then sprinkle evenly with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Starting from the long edge, roll the dough into a log. Slice into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.

Step 4: Second Rise

Cover and let the rolls rise again for 30–40 minutes until puffy.

Step 5: Bake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 6: Add Glaze

Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls. Serve fresh and enjoy!
