ISO cinnamon roll recipe

[jgenie]

I love the Grands cinnamon rolls, but don't generally buy them because of the HFCS and hydrogenated oils. Would love to have a recipe to try making my own. TIA

I have made these many times and they are awesome. http://www.recipezaar.com/Cinnabon-Cinnamon-Rolls-76864

When I get home, I'll post the one I have from Moosewood Low Fat Favorites.

DH loved it, and it's made with mostly whole wheat flour, so I considered it a success!

I'd love the Moosewood lodge one.

I've done Alton Brown's and they were great but alot of work.

I have a no-rise recipe that come out more like a biscuit but are delish if you are interested (not sure of the source, my mom gave it to me).

Thanks for posting the recipe, bnme. Just one question- when you plaxce the rolls in the pan, do you put then close togetehr as you would with regular cinnamon buns?

Thanks!

I space mine evenly, so they are sorta close but not touching. They grow a little. I've also done them in round pan close together with the few extra that didn't fit in a muffin tin.
