Good Morning –
For Some reason I LOVE fall mornings. There is just something about the cool crisp breeze, dew drenched grass, and the quiet stillness in the air that makes me want to wrap up in a warm blanket and watch the sunrise!
Another thing I love about fall mornings is the smell of cinnamon. I can’t think of a better smell in the morning and I can’t think of a better breakfast treat then some fresh homemade cinnamon rolls! There is just something about the smell of fresh homemade cinnamon rolls that gives me the sense of home. Maybe it’s because I always use to love it when my mom made cinnamon rolls for breakfast. While she usually made the ones that were from the can I can assure you when you’re younger there is no better breakfast in the world.
What I love about these cinnamon rolls is the fact that not only are they quick and simple to make the whiskey gives them a whole new flavor profile. As the whiskey caramelizes in the oven and burns off the alcohol your buns will come out in ewey gooey perfection! Perfect for wrapping up in a blanket and watching the sunrise…. Speaking of which….. I probably should get back to that!
Whiskey & Walnut Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients:
1 ball of bread dough (can be store bought)
3 Tablespoons Sugar
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
½ oz whiskey
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl combine the Sugar and Cinnamon.
Roll your dough into a 9 x 11 in rectangle. Evenly spread the combined cinnamon and sugar over the dough.
Now roll the dough so you have an 11 inch long tube. Cut the tube into 1 inch sections and arrange in a round glass baking dish.
Using a pastry brush gently apply ½ oz whiskey coating.
Bake for 20 – 25 minutes or until golden brown.
