This has been my go-to recipe for the past few years. It's never let me down! The cream before baking is an absolute game changer! I don't have a stand mixer, so I always knead by hand. It's such a pain but it's beyond worth it!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

That makes me so happy! Thank you!

[@m.robinson3124]

This is my holy grail...I spent years literally looking for a cinnamon roll recipe I loved and finally... have made these soooo many times loveeee them

[@TheMse09]

Yesterday I spent the entire day searching for a good cinnamon roll recipe until i decided to try out yours. I made the rolls today and OH MY GOD THEY ARE SO INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS!! words cannot describe it properly how good they are! my whole family loved them! I'm so grateful for this amazing recipe, Julie! You explained all the steps so well and even tho I've never worked with yeast before, you gave me the courage to make this gooey and fluffy deliciousness. I'm going to recommend your channel/blog to all of my friends! Thank you so much! ❤️ Liked and subscribed

[@TastesofLizzyT]

TheMse09 thank you!!!

[@krisb5695]

I opened a bakery from my house and my moto is made with love and my slogan is extra yummy deliciousness, lol seeing someone else using deliciousness must be a sign that I need to incorporate these onto my menu

[@Heather-fz6xe]

The best cinnamon roll recipe on the internet, hands down. The heavy cream makes such a huge difference. Other recipes I've tried without it turn out dry. Made it several times and it's always fantastic.

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Thank you!

[@splittingcells]

These are the best cinnamon rolls I have ever ate. I have ate the ones you buy in the store and have never liked them but now I love cinnamon rolls, well these anyway. I have never made them before I made these. I was scared to death, just knew I would mess it up. I used my bread maker to knead the dough and it was so easy. I can't tell you how much I appreciate finding this recipe. I gave some to my mother who is 90 years old and she loved them. They are so yummy! You made 2 ladies so very happy. I put them in the freezer and take one out when I want one. So amazing!

[@jenniferpepler5843]

I have been making cinnamon rolls for years and have had a Cinnabon copycat recipe that is to die for. I recently was taking care of a dear friend's acreage and was craving cinnamon buns. At the time, I was disappointed I didn't have my "Go to" recipe with me & so I had to look on-line for another copycat recipe. I was actually looking to find my go to recipe when I came across this one. The 4.9 * rating with thousands of reviews caught my eye. I will have to admit, the tag line about a "Secret ingredient" had me rolling my eyes. Well Julie, I owe you an apology!! You certainly were NOT lying or misleading me with a secret ingredient! The addition of the heavy cream just before baking absolutely brought these rolls to the next level!! So much so, I thought I had actually died and gone to heaven. LOL Thank you so very very much for sharing your true "Secret ingredient" with us!!!❤ My family and friends thank you too!

[@Retro_simone]

tried probably 5-6 different receipes. This one is BY FAR the best. Thank you for sharing!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Thank you SO much!

[@NAwal1350]

I've been sceptical of trying out cinnamon rolls mainly coz it looked like too much work but what else to do in lockdown? 😅 Recipe review- PERFECT! Everything from the dough to the filling to the glaze. Bang on! If anyone's outcome wasn't as expected , you just didn't follow the recipe right. Period.

[@genelassard5301]

This is a great recipe.I follow all your steps to make these wonderful cinnamon rolls.5 stars is not enough for you,thanks so much people like you share with others.

[@igneous4449]

Just made these for Christmas and everyone in my family couldn't stop talking about them. They tasted even better than Cinnabon and the heavy cream over the top of them really made a big difference. Will be using this recipe for years to come! Thank you so much

[@paulchavez184]

I made these for the first time two weeks ago, my kids have asked me to make them 3 times since then. This is the best cinnamon roll recipe and I am glad I found it!

[@whatcanidooo]

This was the first yeasted dough I had ever made AND I was running on no sleep and they still came out perfect. It basically saved mother's day because I hadn't been able to buy any gifts because of quarantine. They were so good that my dad requested them for father's day too! Thanks for the great recipe

[@surajr3412]

I made cinnamon rolls for the first time using this recipe and they turned out really well! They didn’t look as visually appealing as yours due to my terrible rolling skills, but still tasted fantastic. Thanks for the recipe!

[@mariamalmuhairi8291]

Hands down this is the best cinnamon recipe I have ever done. I tried many recipes this is the only one that was really soft, and gooey. I recommend that you guys should try making them, I promise you wont regret.

[@KellyBell1]

I made them also and they are the BEST!!!

[@xjacqueline7x]

I made these for thanksgiving, and they were an absolute hit! i've been struggling to get a good cinnamon roll recipe and am so happy to find a phenomenal one here!

[@williamshyne4184]

I made these for my wife's office and the compliments that came back to me were that these cinnamon rolls were the best they all had ever had! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

[@chiaoutzu7732]

I’ve never baked or made anything from scratch and I just recently started to get into making foods- this was such a treat to make for the first time and I’ll definitely be making seconds some day, thank you so much!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

I love that!! I’m so glad you loved them. I hope you can find more to try on our website!

[@Lee_Lee1776]

I just made this recipe...first time EVER making any homemade dough or cinnamon buns. Followed exactly. I made a regular sugar glaze, tho. Sweet perfection. Thank you for sharing, and the video really helped throughout the entire process. Hands down the most amazing cinnamon rolls. 5 stars!

[@mikaelaguinevere6093]

Made this today and it was so soft!!!! I thought it'll be so gooey but no, the bread is so good! I didn't add the additional 1/2 cups of flour and it still turned out good. Thank you so much!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Wonderful! I’m glad you loved them!

[@rickdixontn]

Usually when you make a recipe trying to replicate a commercial product such as Cinnabon, it never turns out quite as good as the original. But this recipe, on my first try was simply outstanding. It was actually every bit as good a cinnamon roll, as I've ever had. These instructions are tops. And I did all preparation by hand with no power mixer.

[@betteneiman8033]

OMG! These are better than any cinnamon rolls I've ever had. I've made this recipe several times,and today, I added raisins...They are so very yummy. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe here. Truly appreciate all the information on from the room temperature ingredients to the heavy cream. I do not have to look elsewhere for another recipe for cinnamon rolls, there are the very best! Before I forget, I also added 1 tablespoon of honey to the dough,for an added treat.Yummy!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Thank you so much! I love the idea of adding honey! We are beekeepers so that would be a fun addition for us. I appreciate you and your kind words!

[@estelleadamski308]

Just made this now, out of the oven. Mine took double the time to rise, my house is a bit cold. Left mine in the oven for 20 min. They look great. I tried another recipe that I kneaded by hand, forget that! My Kitchen Aid did a excellent job, and the dough was so easy to work with/ Since I have a granite countertop, I though it might be too cold, so I rolled the dough out on a cloth. I added raisins right before I rolled it up and added maple since I like it. I never had a Cinnabon before so love this!

[@dano04051]

I just made these over the weekend, and they are the best cinnamon rolls my wife and I have ever had. Our 2 picky little eaters loved them too. Typically my wife is the baker in our home. I took this project on with the guidance of my wife. And they turned out absolutely amazing. Thank you.

[@amycraiggrossgart]

Best homemade cinnamon rolls ever! Thank you for sharing your recipe and your step by step video is so helpful for beginners😘

[@TastesofLizzyT]

amycraiggrossgart Wonderful!! Thank you!

[@marthabarrett3599]

These were amazing. Very rich...honestly don't need the icing ( and that's coming from an icing lover). Thanks for this wonderful recipe and video. They were actually very easy...just time consuming. However, for a special treat...VERY WORTH the time investment. These will impress any guests. Family loved them.

[@jd91dixon]

Awesome gotta try this again. Messed up with the measurements of the butter but was definitely worth it

[@KellyBell1]

Ok,..So I have spent atleast the better part of an hour looking for a Cinnamon Roll to make today. I am a true lover of THE CINNAMON ROLL….I get cravings for a cinnamon roll and there is no way to improvise,.for me anyway. I have set all my ingredients out and letting my eggs and butter warm up.😁I will be back to let you know how they turn out-I am so excited to make these for my family. Julie, your tutorial made it so organized and simple. !! Be back soon! UPDATE: Ok, So I made these Cinnamon rolls and they turned out phenomenal!!!! My husband came in right as I was drizzling the glaze and his eyes 👀 were popping out of his head.🤣 Now I’m supposed to make a batch for him to take to work. 😁 Thank you so much Julie for sharing this incredible recipe and the tutorial also. This recipe is one to hand down for sure!!

[@whatcanidooo]

I had honestly always felt kind of meh about cinnamon rolls, but I made these at my mom's request for mother's day and they were so SO good. It was also my first time making a yeasted dough. I've been enlightened, lol

My sister in law makes these for my family whenever she comes around, which after tasting them, is not nearly often enough. Gonna try them for myself now, these are seriously the best dessert I've ever had in my life. Amazing!

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Love that! I hope you have success with them as well!

[@judymurfitt687]

These are the best cinnamon rolls on the planet, bar none! I’m wondering if after they are rolled out and cut, could they be frozen?

[@tamarakennedy4976]

I did it....they rose up so puffy and pretty...I don't like my dry active yeast I think it like to try using instant yeast...I'm happy with how many swirls of cinnamon I got just by stretching the dough as I rolled the roll tightly..so yummy and the 2 cups of powdered sugar sure doesn't make the frosting overly sweet,,love the cream before baking the bottom is so delightfully gory, also, the tops of the rolls are soft as well,,thank you for this recipe..Namaste 🌎✌🏼

[@jasmine3847]

I made these a couple months ago for the first time and it came out perfectly thanks to the clear instructions! However, I forgot how much salt I added because I only had unsalted butter. I’m planning on making it in a couple of days, so if I don’t have salted butter, how much salt should I add?

I've always been intimidated to make scratch homemade cinnamon rolls, after watching your descriptive video I'm looking forward to baking these. What brand is the mixer you use in your The Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls (Recipe Video)? I've never seen a mixer like this, but it looks like a nice one. Thanks, happy baking

[@IAMSniiblydu]

I made these and they turned out amazing! I am making now again!

[@helhaj79]

these cinnamon rolls were probably better than cinnabon tbh. i made them for my friend today and kept two for my family to sample and they loved it. gooey, soft, full of cinnamon, great cream cheese frosting, and all around delicious! thanks for this recipe

[@helhaj79]

also, i might add that i’ve never made cinnamon rolls before. this is the first recipe i’ve ever tried, and i’ve also never used yeast either. i was a bit nervous that i’d mess it up so i’m thankful for your specific step-by-step instructions that are great for beginners

[@gracepancalstatela4422]

I made it yesterday. It is so good. Thank you for sharing.

[@cynthiavos3991]

I made these, kneading by hand and used regular yeast as that was what I had, they look soooo good, and I loved your trick of putting the eggs in warm water.

[@tch5884]

This was a great recipe to follow. If you have a metal pan, I would say do 375 @ 20mins and it comes out perfect. I added a little lemon juice to the frosting and it came out perfect.

[@semutehrogers2614]

Made this yesterday. Simply amazing

Tastes of Lizzy T can these also be made with gluten free flour? Any helpful ideas?

[@TastesofLizzyT]

@@majellaschneller6208 It's something I've been wanting to test. I would think an all-purpose GF flour would work? Maybe a longer rising time?

[@TastesofLizzyT]

I’ve been wanting to do that! Thank you!

[@AndersonsSmokeShow]

Tastes of Lizzy T I put out a video using your recipe. The only thing that I altered was the cooking times and temps. I did 10 minutes at 200F (to expose to more smoke), then 30 minutes at 350F. Next time I make them I’ll try for more smoke!

[@KellyBell1]

I made these Cinnamon rolls 2 weeks ago and they turned out great!! Today, not so great, because it’s a little hotter outside therefore a little warmer in my kitchen and it just really made the dough soften too much before I could get them rolled up and cut. Next time that happens,..I will turn my AC down 🥶more! Still love this recipe though!

[@Diana_Dsouza]

Tried this recipe recently and it turned out so good. I'm new to baking and was quite nervous about making this but glad I did. Had to use milk and butter mixture instead of heavy cream due to the unavailability of the latter.

[@briantrettel8620]

Thank you!! Roasted nuts sound AMAZING.

[@DehCol]

WOOOOWWWWWW I made it today ir was just amazing!!!! Thankyouuuuu

[@brwilliams57]

This is the best cinnamon roll recipe ever!!! I do have a question: the video says soften butter when making the dough but the written recipe list melted butter when making the dough. Do it matter?

[@TastesofLizzyT]

It doesn't matter too much. Ours is usually somewhat melted.

[@brwilliams57]

I will say it over and over this is the best cin roll recipe ever. I have made about 10 batches for family and friends. They cant get enough of them!!! Thank you!!

[@mayeliscarvajaldevegas5235]

Muchas gracias ❤

[@Finewoodworkingofsc]

Great video. Can you tell me the brand name of the large white mixer you used in the beginning of the video?

[@paulferry7791]

I've made these multiple times with some slight differences. I use a whole stick of butter for the dough. I also use the tang zhong method for the dough as well. For the filling, you really need to use a mixer to cream the butter and then add the dry ingredients to it. I also add a tbsp of vanilla extract to the filling as well. It makes it much smoother and more importantly easier to spread. Lastly, I don't use the cream cheese icing. I really don't understand the fascination with cream cheese personally. Instead I use two cups confectioners sugar with equal parts butter, milk, and heavy cream to give one half cup of liquid and thoroughly mix all components of icing together. Then I add a few other secret ingredients to give a flavor like no other.

[@timbibbs9101]

Hello and Merry Christmas Dec2022. My daughter and I made these cinnamon rolls on Christmas and Omgoodness they’re absolutely the best cinnamon rolls I’ve ever eaten and thank you for sharing such an amazing recipe. Respectfully, Tim

[@NikkiRosegta]

Just curious,, what is that brand mixer? i need one just like this.. Currently in progress on the first rise of the dough.. i love cinnamon rolls but first time making from scratch instead of buying pillbury or something similar. im extremely excited to get to the final taste test

[@blessedandhappy3921]

I made these today. And WOW! So gooey, so decadent, so sweet, so cinnamony, so so awesome! I followed the recipe to the letter and can’t imagine them turning out any better. We are retired so it’s just the wife and I. My advice is unless you have a large household or are having guest you should figure a way to freeze some or give to family or neighbors. They are so rich that you’ll get a sugar overload. They are really that good but without moderation I can see someone getting a sugar burnout.

[@cynthiavos3991]

I'm eating them now, they taste even better then they look, I've made them before but could never get the gooey bottoms

[@susanco3663]

Hi. I made these but mine grows so big, what can I do not to let it rise so much.? I use up to 4 -1/4 cups of flour.

[@happyredpanda]

I made this today, and I didn’t roll my dough tightly enough so my rolls weren’t that pretty, but they came out great! So fluffy, gooey & soft, my family said they tasted better than Cinnabon 😄! I added pecans to the filling, yum!!! I have a question though, I hesitated with pouring all the heavy cream onto the rolls - would it have been all right if I poured everything, such that there’s a pool of cream in the pan?

[@mariarincon2998]

😍😍😍 quiero hacer esta receta!! 😝pero el traductor me dice leche colada 🤦🏼‍♀️😆😆 no vi los ingredientes escritos en la caja, pero lo que pone encima de los rollos antes de meterlos al horno, es leche entera o crema ? Y cuando explicas lo de las 4 1/2 t de harina, veo que quitas una? O lo tomas de otro tarro? 🌝

[@tzereebenitzki6853]

Followed this recipe and it was a huge success! Your recipe is worth keeping ❤️.

[@msjudypatootie]

Hi there ! Is it 375°f convection oven (with fan on) or fan off ?

[@rgb8615]

Quick question, if I used bread dough instead, I would use the same cups of dough?

[@felicevictoriadesiderio2354]

hello! i have active dry yeast here. should i activate first it in warm water or milk included in the recipe?

[@johnenglish6537]

I followed the measurements exactly but my dough is very sticky. It sticks to the mixer and also sticks to my hands. What do you think I am missing that causes it to be so sticky. This also has problems rising. thanka

[@cheskacasapao2769]

Hello! will try this soon. May I know what size of pastry mat you are using? Thank you!

[@chocolate17805]

I made these at the weekend and they were perfect!!! Would it ruin the recipe if I add raisins?

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Nope!! That’s a great idea! Thank you 😊

[@noorbadri9737]

Omg 😱 they are extremely AMAZING and delicious 🤤🤤🤤🤤 ........... cannot stop eating them😅

[@anneyoung9]

If I reduce this recipe by half to get only 6 rolls. Should I also reduce the yeast? Thank you! 😊

[@TastesofLizzyT]

Yes...I'd reduce the yeast also. Maybe 1 1/2 teaspoons. I've found if I use the full amount the dough rises too much and ends up falling during baking.

[@topflight2358]

what model is your mixer? does it have a blinder? on side?

[@Loveduff]

Thank you ❤️

[@CherylJay-z1s]

where i can buy the dough machine? looks so good~

[@touaibisalim8335]

What oven do you use? Electric fan assisted ?

[@Jenn20076]

What would happen if i were to use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar? Would it make a huge difference?

[@TastesofLizzyT]

It would be just fine! It would add a touch different flavor, but we love dark brown sugar. :)

[@Jenn20076]

Tastes of Lizzy T ok thanks! I’ll try this recipe soon
