One Hour Cinnamon Rolls

I found this recipe on Pinterest. I’ve only recently started making baked goods with yeast and was terrified to try this, but so happy that it was as easy to put together and had such fantastic results. I hope you’ll give it a try!

One Hour Cinnamon Rolls
Mix and let sit for 15 minutes:
3 1/2 c. warm water
3/4 c. sugar
1/2 c. oil
6 T. yeast (4 1/2 T. Saf-Instant)

Then add:
1 T. salt
3 eggs
10 1/2 c. flour

Mix together for 10 minutes, then sit for 10 minutes. Oil counter top, dump out dough. Divide in half. Roll one half out into rectangle. Spread with 1/4 c. melted butter and then with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Roll up tight, but not too tight. Divide into 12 rolls and place on greased cookie sheet. Repeat with other half of dough. Let rise. Bake for 12-15 minutes at 400°.
