Dad's cinnamon rolls

Submitted by: YAMAHANANA


Number of Servings: 17

Ingredients

    Flour, white 1 cup
    Flour, whole wheat, 1 cup
    Baking powder, 4 tsp.
    Salt 1 tsp.
    Shortening, 1/4 cup
    Milk, 1%, 1 cup
    Cinnamon, 2 tbsp.
    Brown Sugar, 1/2 cup
    Butter 6 tbsp.

Directions

First mix Cinnamon and Brown Sugar together.

In another bowl put the first 4 ingredients, mix these together to blend.

Add the shortening to the dry ingredients and blend till it is an oat meal consistency. I use my fingers for this.

Then make a well in the middle and add the milk.
stir this till it forms a ball.

Dust the counter with flour and roll out to about 1/4 inch thick. Now spread the butter over the top of this and sprinkly the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture over this. Roll this all up into a tub and then cut into 17 equal parts.

Put on baking sheet and bake on the middle rack of oven at 375 for 15 - 20 minutes. My oven cooks them in 17 minutes.

  • Mine turned out way better then I thought they would...I did use 1/4 cup of the white flour in with the cinnamon/sugar mixture to keep it from running out of the rolls.They were NOT dry at all but a bit heavy.WAAY too much cinnamon as well...and took 25 minutes in my brand new oven.. - 5/25/11

  • You know I love these, but is there any way to make them without shortening? You already switched to 1/2 whole wheat flour, which made 'em a bit healthier --- but that darn shortening is still there. :) - 9/19/07
