Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Cinnamon Rolls
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and instant yeast until well combined.
- In a small saucepan, warm the milk and butter over low heat until the butter melts, then allow it to cool slightly.
- Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, add the egg, and mix until a soft dough forms, about 2-3 minutes of stirring.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it vigorously for about 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down and transfer it to a floured work surface.
- Roll the dough into a large rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, and fresh blueberries across the surface.
- Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log from one end to the other, ensuring you keep the filling inside, and slice it into individual rolls.
- Lightly grease a baking dish with butter or cooking spray and place the sliced rolls inside, leaving some space in between for expansion.
- Cover the dish with a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise again for 30-45 minutes, or until they look puffed and almost touching.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), ensuring it’s even hot for the best baking results.
- Once preheated, bake the Blueberry Cinnamon Rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting by beating together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Once the Blueberry Cinnamon Rolls have finished baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes.
- Drizzle the prepared cream cheese frosting generously over the rolls, letting it soak into the swirls.
