Editorial Reviews

From the Author

I love cinnamon rolls!  The soft, feathery-crumbed cinnamon-spiced rolls with ooey-gooey frosting, still warm from the oven. The tiny, little-black-dress kind that you can nibble in two bites. Decadent cinnamon sticky buns. Big-as-a-plate cinnamon rolls. Cinnamon rolls in the shape of "crowns," filled with blueberry, pumpkin, or sweet cheese mixture and topped with cinnamon streusel.

There's a cinnamon roll for every occasion. every season, and every type of baker. Whether you like to make rolls from a mix (doctored-up Pillbury's Hot Roll Mix, for instance), old-fashioned kneaded dough, new-fangled no-knead dough, whole wheat, vegan, gluten-free, bread machine--or the fabulous croissant-like laminated dough so reminiscent of true Danish pastry--there's a dough and a recipe for you in this book.

If you can't stop eating classic cinnamon rolls, you'll be happy.  If you like to venture beyond a little bit, then you can try a cinnamon filling with tongue-tingling Szechuan pepper and a glaze with fresh ginger. Or wake up happy to a cinnamon roll with a fresh orange glaze. 

They're all part of the World of Yum!

You can read some of her cookbooks like novels--the fabulously photographed Heartland, the award-winning and James Beard Awards-nominated Prairie Home Cooking, the encylopedic All-American Desserts, and Prairie Home Breads.

I made the original cinnamon rolls and they came out wonderful. This was the first time I used yeast and the recipe made it so easy. There are so many variations, I'm going to bake my way through the book.

4.0 out of 5 stars NOTHIN' SAYS LOVIN' LIKE..... October 4, 2012

By Gail Cooke HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:Hardcover

There couldn't be a more appropriate title! Who doesn't love cinnamon rolls? All of us have favorite childhood memories and one of mine is of Sunday morning breakfasts - cinnamon rolls, scrambled eggs and thin slices of Virginia ham. Just the thought of those morning feasts makes my mouth water as does Judith Fertig's delightful, delicious cookbook that holds something for everyone even whole wheat, vegan and gluten-free options.

Following a brief history of cinnamon rolls and a description of each of its parts Fertig shares eight dough recipes (including no-knead and bread machine doughs) which you can use in countless ways limited only by the variety of fillings and glazes you choose. Yes, you can even make your very own kind of cinnamon rolls, which may very well be a family favorite for generations to come.

My favorite recipe? Impossible to choose from these tastier than ever treats. However, Mexican Chocolate Cinnamon Rolls (p. 34) and Yummy Glazed Cinnamon Rolls (p. 14) would surely be at the top of my list.

Generously illustrated with full-page photos and filled with easy to follow directions I love Cinnamon Rolls! needs to be in every cookbook collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars i love cinnamon rolls! February 7, 2013

By JohnE

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

I was disappointed in the book for four reasons:
1. The first recipe "easy cinnamon roll dough" used a package of "hot roll mix", which I had never heard of. After tracking it down the "hot roll mix" cost $3.00 for 16 oz. of flour and a few other ingredients, which made 12 rolls per the package's directions. So it was $3.00 plus, for each additional 12 cinnamon rolls.
2. This "easy cinnamon roll dough" recipe was referenced as a starting point for over half the following recipes in the book.
3. Most of the recipes referenced "Procure with a cinnamon roll recipe" which I could never find (which recipe, where?).
4. There was a lot of referencing to other pages throughout the book, so you were always flipping from one page to another.
Sorry no winner here. The pictures were good.
