Description

These "Jiffy" cinnamon rolls offer a comforting, sweet treat that comes together in under an hour. Using a no-rise biscuit dough, this recipe eliminates the wait for yeast, making it perfect for spontaneous breakfasts or afternoon snacks. The tender, flaky dough is rolled around a rich filling of brown sugar, cinnamon, and currants, then baked until golden and bubbly.

Ideal for family brunches or cozy weekend mornings, these rolls bring homemade warmth to any table without the fuss of traditional yeast doughs.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Place a baking sheet on the lower rack to catch any drips.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Pour in the milk, stirring lightly with a fork. Add a little more milk if needed to form a soft, cohesive dough.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently 8 to 10 times just to bring it together.
  6. Roll the dough into a 12 x 8 inch rectangle.
  7. In a small bowl, cream together the softened butter, packed brown sugar, and cinnamon until smooth.
  8. Drop 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon butter mixture into the bottom of each of 12 large greased muffin cups.
  9. Spread the remaining cinnamon butter mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough rectangle.
  10. Sprinkle the currants or chopped raisins over the top of the dough.
  11. Roll up the dough tightly, jelly-roll style, starting from the long side.
  12. Cut the roll into 12 equal slices.
  13. Place one slice in each prepared muffin cup.
  14. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cinnamon filling is bubbling.
  15. Turn out immediately onto a heatproof tray and serve warm.
