Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    **Prepare the Dough**:

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the warm milk, honey, and eggs.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, combine flour, instant yeast, and salt. Add the milk mixture and the butter. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours.

  6. 6

    **Make the Filling**:

  7. 7

    In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and citrus zest with a pinch of salt.

  8. 8

    **Form the Rolls**:

  9. 9

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle (about 16 x 24 inches).

  10. 10

    Spread the melted butter over the rolled-out dough, then sprinkle the filling mixture evenly over the top.

  11. 11

    Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 equal pieces.

  12. 12

    Place the rolls in a greased baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let them rise for another 30-60 minutes.

  13. 13

    **Bake the Rolls**:

  14. 14

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

  15. 15

    **Prepare the Frosting**:

  16. 16

    In a medium bowl, beat together the butter, yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.

  17. 17

    Gradually add the granulated sugar, mixing until well combined and smooth.

  18. 18

    **Frost the Rolls**:

  19. 19

    Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, then spread the honey yogurt frosting over the warm rolls.

These cinnamon rolls are a beloved classic, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or anything in between. The addition of yogurt and honey in the frosting, along with nutmeg and citrus zest in the filling, will give these rolls a unique and delicious depth of flavor!
