Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
Filling
- 2 cups diced peaches (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Frosting
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Dissolve yeast in warm milk with a pinch of sugar. Let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and flour. Mix in the yeast mixture thoroughly. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix diced peaches with brown sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Assemble Rolls: Roll out the risen dough on a floured surface into a large rectangle. Evenly spread the peach filling over the dough. Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Slice the log into 12 equal rolls. Place the rolls into a greased baking dish, cover, and allow them to rise again for 30 minutes.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25 minutes or until they turn golden brown on top and are cooked through.
- Prepare Frosting: While the rolls bake, beat together the softened cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Finish: Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle the cream cheese frosting generously over the warm rolls before serving.
Notes
- If using fresh peaches or very juicy canned peaches, toss them with 1 tablespoon of flour before mixing with brown sugar and cinnamon to help thicken the filling and prevent sogginess.
- Ensure the milk is warmed to about 110°F to properly activate the yeast without killing it.
- Letting the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot speeds up the fermentation process.
- You can substitute the peaches with other fruits like apples or berries for a different twist.
- For an extra fluffy texture, knead the dough until it’s elastic and smooth, about 8-10 minutes by hand.
