Soft, gooey cinnamon rolls without turning the oven on. Sticky, spiced and stupidly easy.

Your silicone liner catches every drop of that sticky glaze, no scrubbing the tray after.

Ingredients

Dough

  • 250g (9 oz) strong white flour
  • 7g (1/4 oz) fast-action yeast
  • 30g (1 oz) caster sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 120ml (4 fl oz) warm milk
  • 1 egg
  • 30g (1 oz) butter, softened

Filling

  • 50g (1 3/4 oz) butter, softened
  • 60g (2 oz) brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon

Icing

  • 80g (2 3/4 oz) icing sugar
  • 1-2 tbsp milk

Steps

  1. Make the dough: Mix flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add warm milk, egg and butter, and bring together into a soft dough. Knead for 5 minutes.

  2. Prove: Cover and leave somewhere warm for 1 hour, until doubled in size.

  3. Fill and roll: Roll out into a rectangle. Spread with butter, then sprinkle over brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll up tightly and slice into 6 rounds.

  4. Prove again: Place rolls on your air fryer liner, cover, and leave for 20 minutes.

  5. Air fry: Cook at 160°C (320°F) for 12-15 minutes, until golden and cooked through.

  6. Ice and serve: Mix icing sugar with milk until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls and serve.
