Ingredients
Scale
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of instant yeast
1/3 cup of milk
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup of chopped pistachios
1/4 cup of powdered sugar (for frosting)
1 tablespoon of cream cheese
Instructions
Mix the dough: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and yeast until well combined. In a separate small bowl, mix together the milk, melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Gradually pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until it forms a soft dough.
Knead the dough: On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
Let it rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a damp cloth. Let it rest for about 30 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, chopped pistachios, and cinnamon. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Fill it up: Brush the rolled-out dough with melted butter, sprinkle the cinnamon mixture evenly over the top. Roll it up tightly and seal the edges.
Cut and shape: Slice the rolled dough into 4-6 pieces, placing them in a greased baking dish.
Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Make frosting: Combine cream cheese and powdered sugar with a dash of milk until smooth. Drizzle over warm cinnamon rolls.
