What You Need to Make a Cinnamon Roll Wreath

Most of the items that you need to make this are probably already in your kitchen! It’s super simple. See the recipe card below for a list of exact measurements.

Milk: I like to use whole milk for this dough!Yeast: Use instant yeast for this recipe and make sure that you follow closely how to heat it so that you don’t kill it. Brown sugar: I looooove anything that I can add brown sugar to! The taste is so deep and sweet!Granulated sugar: This is what makes the cinnamon rolls so sweet! Salt: Salt is used to enhance the flavors of all of the other ingredients. Butter: I like to use unsalted butter so that I don’t have to change up the salt at all! Egg: You will need a whole egg for the dough.Egg yolks: After I used a whole egg, I used another two egg yolks only. Flour: All purpose flour works fantastic for this dough!

Filling

Brown sugar: If you use brown sugar in this part, the flavor will be so much better! Cinnamon: You can’t bake cinnamon rolls without some cinnamon! Butter: Use unsalted butter and try to have it softened to room temperature before you mix it up. It will make the filling smoother!

Cream Cheese Icing

Cream cheese: If you want a really smooth texture then make sure to soften up your cream cheese before you are ready to bake with it. Butter: Again, you will want to use unsalted butter and try to have it softened before you mix it up!Powdered sugar: This is used a lot in icing because it dissolves quicker than regular sugar. This makes the icing smooth! Vanilla: I use vanilla for a little bit of added sweetness. Salt: Just a dash in this part will do!

Let’s Bake Some Cinnamon Rolls!

Even though there are a lot of steps to baking this cinnamon roll wreath, it’s really not hard and anyone can make it! It’s SOO GOOD!

Browning tops: If the tops are browning too quickly, a sheet of foil over them can prevent further browning while the center of the rolls finish baking.Room temperature ingredients: I know that this can take a bit of thought beforehandbut it really helps! Make sure to take all of your refrigerated ingredients out and put them on the counter a few hours before you plan on baking. Bringing your ingredients to room temperature really helps them mix nicely together and makes the dough and icing really smooth! Don’t open the oven door: I know that it’s tempting to open the oven door while you are baking your cinnamon rolls. After all, you just want to see how they are doing! But when you open the door while you are baking, you let a lot of the heat out. This makes it so that your cinnamon roll wreath will bake unevenly.

Serve it with some eggs: To balance out the sweetness of the cinnamon rolls, try cooking this Breakfast Casserole or this yummy Eggs Benedict with Hollandaise Sauce!Bring in some breads: Brunch isn’t brunch unless you have a whole table of muffins, bagels, or bread!You need some meat: If you are making an entire brunch then you definitely need some meat! Try this Homemade Breakfast Sausage and this Perfect Air Fryer Bacon!
