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 the yeast in warm milk with a pinch of sugar and let it sit until frothy, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, combine sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and flour, then mix in the yeast mixture. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, mix diced peaches with brown sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly coated.
- Assemble Rolls: Roll out the risen dough into a large rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the peach filling evenly over the dough. Starting from one long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 even slices and place them cut side up in a greased baking dish. Cover and let the rolls rise for 30 minutes.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Prepare Frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until the frosting is fluffy.
- Finish: Drizzle the cream cheese frosting over the warm cinnamon rolls before serving for a decadent finish.
Notes
- If using juicy peaches, toss them with a tablespoon of flour to help thicken the filling and prevent sogginess.
- Ensure the milk is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
- Allow sufficient rising time for the dough to achieve a light and fluffy texture.
- You can substitute fresh peaches with canned peaches drained well if out of season.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute cream cheese and butter with vegan alternatives.
