With a kitchen Aid stand mixer in the kitchen it has never been easier to make dough. It's so easy and fast. Dissolve the yeast as you would normally on lukewarm milk, add the butter. Beat it together with the dough hook attachment. While miking slowly add the flour and with minutes you are have a great dough! As fast as that!
Let the dough rise in a warm spot in the house, for around 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
After kneading the dough for around 5 minutes roll it to a big rectangular piece. Instead of the traditional butter and cinnamon mixture, I took 4 tbsp of applesauce, 2 tbsp brown sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon, mixed it together and then spread it evenly on the dough. For a little crunch I sprinkled some chopped walnuts also.
Then you want to roll it together as tightly as possible. And the cut them into the desired thickness, I like to cut them into inch sized pieces. Line them up in a greased baking dish, but not too close, since they do rise a lot.
The applesauce filling worked really well, it was moist and sweet. Definitely I low fat version I would do again.
After baking I drizzled a bit a frosting on them them. I just mixed confectionery sugar and water until a came together in a thick paste. It's simple and adds a great sweet touch to it.

Can you use whole wheat flour in these?
Yes, you sure can. I actually always try and add as much wholewheat in my baking as possible. I like the taste and it add a bit more fiber. In these rolls I used half regular flour and half whole wheat.
