    do you ever crave something so much that it's all you can think about? well that was me when i wanted a cinnamon roll a week ago. i couldn't get it out of my head!

    therefore, i created this recipe. a single serve cinnamon roll that takes little time to make and is absolutely delicious.

    you can multiply the recipe to make as many cinnamon rolls as you need or stick with the one!

    when i make this recipe, i like to use a flavored butter such as maple cinnamon or a honey butter for added flavor. however, regular butter will work just as well!

    now let's get rollin' with it and talk about the ingredients.

    main ingredients

    • all purpose flour / gluten free flour
    • baking powder
    • coconut oil
    • maple syrup
    • almond milk
    • butter
    • brown sugar
    • cinnamon

    what is a cinnamon roll?

    besides being a magical creation there is a more specific definition! a cinnamon roll is a sweet baked dough dough filled with a cinnamon sugar filling. usually also topped with a sweet glaze or buttercream frosting.

    how to make a cinnamon roll

    1. you will start off by prepping the ingredients. i like to measure out all the ingredients i need ahead of time, it keeps the process easy!
    2. once you have the ingredients together, it's time to make the dough.
    3. next we will make the filling with the butter, cinnamon and brown sugar.
    4. now it is time to spread the filling on the dough. start by covering the rolled out dough with the softened butter. top it with the dark brown sugar and cinnamon.
    5. roll the dough and filling into a tight spiral. now it's time to bake the cinnamon roll!
    6. after the cinnamon roll is done baking, let it cool.
    7. while the cinnamon roll is cooling, make the buttercream frosting
    8. last but not least, spread the frosting on top
    9. dig in and enjoy!

    frequently asked questions

    what's the different between a cinnamon bun and cinnamon roll?

    cinnamon buns typically have nuts in their filling and are flipped upside down after baking. they also do not have a frosting on top.

    cinnamon rolls traditionally do not have nuts in them and are topped with icing after baking.

    do i have to use gluten free flour?

    nope! you can use regular all purpose flour. i don't recommend using almond flour, coconut flour or oat flour as that may affect the final result.

    do i need rapid rise instant yeast?

    nope! the baking powder does all the rising it needs to make this cinnamon roll.

    can i bake this in the microwave?

    you can try! however, i have not tested this and recommend baking in the oven to get the right results. however, i will test this recipe in the microwave and will report back to update you on if it works!

    can i make this ahead of time and store it?

    you can make this cinnamon roll ahead of time, however, i wouldn't recommend more than 1 day before you plan to eat it and suggest heating it up! however, it is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven!

    SWEET & SPICY PIZZA πŸ―πŸŒΆοΈπŸ• Making pizza SWEET & SPICY PIZZA πŸ―πŸŒΆοΈπŸ• 

Making pizza from scratch has never been easier thanks to kingarthurbaking pizza flour! This is the perfect recipe when you’re craving pizza and want to add all your favorite toppings. 

INGREDIENTS 
2 cups (232g) King Arthur β€˜00’ Pizza Flour 
1/8 teaspoon instant yeast or active dry yeast 
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar 
1 1/4 teaspoons (8g) salt 
3/4 cup (170g) water, lukewarm, (105Β° to 115Β°F) 

DIRECTIONS 
1. To make the dough: Meausure your flour by gently spooning it into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. 
2. In a medium bowl, mix the dry ingredients, then add the water. Stir until just combined, making a rough but cohesive dough. 
3. Cover the bowl and allow the dough to rise at room temperature overnight, for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours. 
4. Preheat the oven to 500Β°F to 550Β°F (if it goes that high) for at least 30 minutes prior to putting the pizza in. 
5. Time to shape the dough! Divide the dough into two pieces. Stretch and fold it, as follows: holding onto the dough at both ends, pull one end away from the other, then fold it back onto itself. Repeat on the other side. Be sure to keep your hands floured as you work. 
6. Next, pull the ends of the dough towards the middle, then turn it over. 
7. Place both pieces of dough in a floured bowl and cover for 45 minutes to 1 hour to rise. 
8. Next, stretch the dough into a 10” to 12” circle. If the dough is at all sticky, use more flour. 
9. Once you have your shape, add it to a pizza pan and start to add your toppings! 
10. I used classic pizza sauce, pizza seasoning, thin-sliced pepperoni and fresh mozzarella. 
11. Bake for 6-7 minutes or until cheese is melted 
12. Turn the oven to broil for 2-3 minutes. This will get your pizza nice and bubbly and charred. 
13. Remove from the oven. 
14. Add hot honey drizzle on top (optional but encouraged!)
15. Slice and enjoy!
