Category: Breads

Servings: 2 large cookie sheets of rolls

Ingredients

    Put the following ingredients into the Bosch mixer:
  • 3 cups hot water
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup honey
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 2 Tbsp lemon vinegar
  • ¼ cup gluten
  • 5 cups of about 9 cups flour (whole wheat, or a mixture of wheat and white)
  • 4 to 5 tsp yeast

Instructions

  • Start the mixer and immediately add in another 1 cup of flour.
  • Keep adding flour until dough doesn’t stick to sides of bowl.
  • Knead on Speed 2 for about 7 minutes.
  • Take dough out of bowl, divide in half.
  • Roll out into large rectangle on a greased countertop.
  • Spread 2 Tbsp unmelted coconut oil evenly on the dough – it will melt while spreading - and lightly sprinkle with salt. (Leave a 1 inch edge on one side of the rectangle unoiled so that it will stick together when rolled.)
  • Sprinkle generously with a mixture of cinnamon and organic sugar (1 to 5 ratio).
  • Add raisins or nuts if desired.
  • Roll up dough on long side.  
  • When all the dough is rolled up, pinch the end of the long side into the dough to seal.
  • Using a piece of dental floss, cut dough into 15 cinnamon rolls. (Repeat with other half of dough.)
  • Place cut cinnamon rolls into 2 greased large cookie sheets.
  • Cover with a clean dishtowel and raise until double, about one hour.
  • When done rising, remove towel, turn oven to 350 degrees.
