Serves/Makes: 12
Ready in: 1-2 hrs
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 package rapid rise yeast
- 2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup very warm water (120 to 130 degrees F)
- 6 ounces jar pear baby food
- 3 egg whites
- 1 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 3/4 cup raisins
***Icing***
- 1 cup sifted powdered sugar
- 3 teaspoons nonfat milk (more if needed)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
In large bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, the granulated sugar, undissolved yeast, dry milk and salt. Stir in water and baby food. Stir in egg whites, whole-wheat flour and enough remaining all-purpose flour to make soft dough. On lightly floured surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover; let rest on floured surface 10 minutes. Roll dough to 18- by 12-inch rectangle. Brush honey on dough; sprinkle evenly with brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins. Beginning at long end, roll up tightly; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 12 equal pieces. Place, cut sides up, in greased 13- by 9-inch baking pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack. Drizzle with powdered sugar icing. Powdered Sugar Icing: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar, milk and vanilla extract; mix until smooth. Cook\'s Notes: Pear baby food is the secret ingredient that gives Low-Fat Cinnamon Rolls sumptuous texture and moistness without added fat.
