Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 ½ cup water
• 1/4 tsp. vanilla
• 1 large egg
• 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 3/4 cup sugar, divided
• 1 tsp. salt
• 3 tsp. fast acting yeast
• 6 tbsp. butter, divided
• 1 cup blueberries, fresh or dried
• 2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 cup confectioner's sugar
• 2 drops lemon extract
• ¼ cup whipping cream

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

2. Put the water, vanilla, egg, sugar, salt and yeast in a mixing bowl or bread machine and mix until the dough is smooth.

3. Put the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead for about 3 minutes. Roll the kneaded dough in a rectangular shape approximately 18 inches by 9 inches, and brush it with 2 tbsp. melted butter.

4. Mix together 2 tsp. of cinnamon and ½ cup of sugar, and gently stir in the blueberries.

5. Sprinkle the blueberry mixture over the dough, and roll the dough up tightly like a jelly roll. Moisten the ends of the seams and pinch them together.

6. Slice the rolls into nine equal rolls about 2 inches thick, and place them in a greased 9 by 9-inch pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the blueberry cinnamon rolls are golden brown.

7. Make the glaze by mixing the confectioner's sugar, lemon extract, whipping cream and 2 tbsp. of melted butter in a small bowl. Stir the mixture until it's smooth. Spread the glaze on the warm blueberry cinnamon rolls.
