Makes 8 cinnamon rolls.
Cinnamon Roll Ingredients
1 ¾ cup flour, plus more for dusting
1 tbsp baking powder
1 ¼ tsp salt
3 tbsp butter, melted
1 tbsp cinnamon
⅓ cup sugar
Icing Ingredients
¼ cup powdered sugar
Steps
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt until well combined. Mix in the yogurt until combined, then use your hands to knead until the dough balls up. This may take a few minutes so be patient.
Lightly dust a work surface with flour and roll out the dough into a rectangular shape about ½ thick. Brush on the melted butter, then sprinkle on the cinnamon and sugar, evenly distributing them throughout the dough.
Gently roll up the dough from one of the narrow ends to the other until you have a cylinder. Using a very sharp knife cut cylinder into 6-8 pieces. Arrange the pieces on the lined baking sheet and bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the edges are just golden brown.
While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar and vanilla bean yogurt.
Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and pour the icing over. Enjoy warm.
