Ingredients

  • 1 sheet defrosted frozen puff pastry
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 egg
  • 2/3 cup icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-1 1/2 tbsp milk
  • pinch salt

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with puff pastry. 
  • On a piece of parchment paper, roll out the defrosted puff pastry sheet into about 8x12 inch rectangle.
  • Brush the rolled out puff pastry with melted butter.
  • Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon until combined. Then, sprinkle over the entire puff pastry, using hands or back of spoon to press it gently into the dough. 
  • Start from the long edge side and tightly / gently roll up into a log, trying to tuck in any filling that’s spilling out as you go. Use any leftover butter to press and seal the seam so the log doesn't fall apart.
  • Cut into 1 1/2 inch slices using a serrated knife. Place spiral-side up on the parchment lined baking sheet and brush with egg wash if using.
  • Bake 22-27 minutes until puffy, golden brown and bubbling.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet and then move to a baking rack or plate.
  • Make the icing by mixing together the icing sugar, melted butter, 1 tbsp milk, vanilla extract and pinch of salt. If you'd like a bit looser icing, add another 1/2 tbsp milk.
  • Drizzle the icing over the cinnamon rolls and enjoy! Store in an airtight container at room temp for up to 2 days.
