The Perfect Cinnamon Rolls for Winter Mornings

Posted by Karalynne Call on

Whether you’re making a holiday breakfast or special treat for your family, homemade cinnamon rolls are a no-brainer. They create a sense of nostalgia for many and for others they’re just downright delicious. While it’s easy to just grab the tube of pre-made cinnamon rolls from the grocery store, this recipe is quick to put together and contains better choice ingredients. Plus, they’re just as tasty!

  • 1 3/4 cup warm water
  • 1/3 cup honey or 1/2 cup organic sugar
