Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 6 tablespoons Butter
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 0.5 cups Light brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 0.25 cups Finely chopped almonds
• 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoons Milk (for icing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch round or square baking dish.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut in 4 tablespoons of butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Stir in the milk and mix until a soft dough forms. Do not overwork the dough.

Step 5

On a floured surface, roll the dough into a rectangle about 10x6 inches in size.

Step 6

Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of softened butter evenly over the surface of the dough.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the light brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped almonds. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 8

Starting from one of the long edges, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 8 equal pieces.

Step 9

Arrange the rolls cut-side up in the greased dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are light golden brown.

Step 10

While the rolls are baking, prepare the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if necessary.

Step 11

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the icing over the warm rolls.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Quick Almond Cinnamon Rolls!
