- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk, warm
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup butter, melted
For the Peach Filling
- 2 cups peaches, fresh or canned, finely chopped

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Cream Cheese Glaze
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar

👩🍳 Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture rest for 5–7 minutes until foamy.
Add the melted butter and eggs, mixing until well combined. Gradually add the flour and salt, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Step 2: Knead and Rise
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Step 3: Prepare the Peach Filling
In a medium bowl, mix chopped peaches, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir gently and set aside. This mixture creates the juicy cobbler-style filling.
Step 4: Roll Out the Dough
Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it into a large rectangle, about 30 × 40 cm (12 × 16 inches).
Step 5: Add the Filling
Spread the peach mixture evenly over the dough, making sure the peaches are well distributed for consistent flavor in every roll.
Step 6: Shape the Rolls
Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Slice into even rolls and place them into a greased baking dish.
Cover and let rise again for 25–30 minutes.
Step 7: Bake
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake the rolls for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8: Make the Cream Cheese Glaze
In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and mix well. Gradually add milk until the glaze reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
Step 9: Glaze and Serve
Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm cinnamon rolls. Let it melt into the swirls before serving.
