Peach Cobbler Cinnamon Rolls

 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Make the Dough

1. In a large mixing bowl (or stand mixer bowl), combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
2. Add warm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a rough dough forms.
3. Knead the dough for 8–10 minutes by hand or using the dough hook attachment on medium speed until the dough is smooth, elastic, and only slightly sticky.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 60–90 minutes, or until doubled in size.

Pro Tip: If your kitchen is cold, turn your oven on for 2 minutes, then turn it off. Use the residual warmth to proof the dough.

Step 2: Prepare the Peach Cobbler Filling

1. In a medium saucepan, combine peaches, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch.
2. Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted. Let the mixture cool completely before using.

Shortcut: Using canned peaches? Drain well and reduce cooking time slightly.

Step 3: Make the Cinnamon Sugar Butter

In a small bowl, mix softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until smooth and spreadable.

Step 4: Roll, Fill & Cut

1. Roll out the proofed

1.  dough on a lightly floured surface into a 16×12-inch rectangle.
2. Evenly spread the cinnamon sugar butter across the dough.
3. Gently spoon the cooled peach filling over the cinnamon layer, spreading carefully to avoid tearing the dough.
4. Roll the dough up tightly from the long edge to form a log.
5. Slice into 12 even rolls using a serrated knife or unflavored dental floss.

Pro Tip: Use dental floss to make clean cuts without squishing your rolls.

Step 5: Second Rise & Bake

1. Arrange the rolls in a greased 9×13-inch pan, leaving a little space between each.
2. Cover and let rise for 30–45 minutes, until puffy and touching.
3. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers are cooked through.

Step 6: Make the Vanilla Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle generously over the warm rolls.

Optional: Add a dash of cinnamon or almond extract to the glaze for an extra flavor kick.
