• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Milk, lukewarm
• 1 large Egg
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 3 tablespoons Butter, melted (for filling)
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (for filling)
• 1.5 tablespoons Ground cinnamon (for filling)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar (for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Add the milk, egg, softened butter, sugar, salt, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, and yeast to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

Step 2

Select the 'Dough' cycle and start the machine. Allow the machine to knead and proof the dough.

Step 3

Once the cycle is complete, transfer the dough to a floured surface and roll it out into a 12x16 inch rectangle.

Step 4

Brush the melted butter evenly over the rolled-out dough.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 6

Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log and pinch the seam to seal it.

Step 7

Cut the log into 12 equal slices and place them in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 8

Cover the dish with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 20-30 minutes or until doubled in size.

Step 9

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 10

Bake the cinnamon rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 11

While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 12

Remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls and serve!
