2/3 C. milk

1/3 C. maple syrup (pure syrup is best)

1/3 C. butter, softened

1 egg

3/4 tsp salt

3 C. bread flour

1 pkg. active dry yeast (2 1/2 tsp)

 

Filling:

1/2 C. packed brown sugar

2 T.P bread flour

4 tsp ground cinnamon

6 T.P cold butter

 

Maple Icing:

1 C. confectioner’s sugar

3 T.P butter, melted

3 T.P maple syrup

1-2 tsp milk

 

Dissolve yeast in 2/3 C. warm milk. Add the rest of the dough ingredients. Knead until dough is springy. Place in a greased bowl (turning once to grease top), cover with a light towel, and place in warm area until doubled in bulk. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into two 12×7 rectangles. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle half of the sugar over each rectangle. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting from a long side. Pinch seam to seal. Cut each roll into 12 slices. Place cut side down in one greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 20 minutes. Bake at 375 F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. In a small mixing bowl, combine confectioner’s sugar, butter, maple syrup, and enough milk to achieve desired consistency. Spread over warm rolls.
