Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Make the Dough

• In a large pot, heat milk, vegetable oil, and sugar over medium heat until warm (not boiling).
• Remove from heat and let cool until lukewarm (about 105°F-110°F).
• Sprinkle in yeast, stir, and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Stir in 8 cups of flour, mixing until combined.
• Cover with a towel and let rise for 1 hour, until doubled in size.

2. Add Remaining Ingredients

• After rising, stir in baking powder, baking soda, salt, and remaining 1 cup of flour.
• Dough will be slightly sticky—that’s perfect!

3. Roll Out & Fill

• Lightly flour a surface and roll out dough into a large rectangle (about 30×10 inches).
• Brush melted butter over the dough.
• Sprinkle generously with brown sugar and cinnamon.

4. Roll & Slice

• Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log.
• Slice into 1-inch thick rolls using a sharp knife or dental floss.
• Place rolls into buttered baking pans.

5. Let Rise & Bake

• Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.

6. Make the Glaze & Drizzle

• Whisk together powdered sugar, melted butter, coffee (or milk), vanilla, and salt.
• Pour over warm cinnamon rolls, letting it melt into the swirls.
