If you are looking for some things to do to kill boredom then put your apron on and get ready to bake. I am sure that you have all of the ingredients in your pantry right now. I personally always choose recipes that don't require me to go shopping and there are no exotic ingredients needed for these cinnamon rolls. I know that some people don't like cinnamon. If you are one of them then simply replace cinnamon with cacao and you'll have delicious cacao rolls. 

INGREDIENTS FOR DOUGH 

• 500g flour
• 1 bag of dry yeast
• 1 egg 
• 70 g sugar
• 1.5 dl milk 
• 100 g butter 
• 0.5 dl water 

INGREDIENTS FOR FILLING 

• 100 g melted butter 
• cinnamon 
• sugar 

PREPARATION 

1. Start by stimulating the yeast: Put it in a small bowl with lukewarm water. Stir thoroughly, then let sit for 5 minutes. You'll know that your yeast is ready when you see the bubbles.
2. Add all ingredients to a bowl. You can either knead the dough by hand or use a stand mixer if you have one. I knead the dough by hand. 
3. When all the ingredients are combined and you got a cohesive dough put a kitchen towel over the bowl and let it sit somewhere warm until doubled in size.
4.  Sprinkle flour on your surface and roll the dough in a rectangle shape. It doesn't need to be perfect. Spread melted butter over the dough and add cinnamon and sugar. I don't have a specific measure for cinnamon sugar. This depends on your taste. 
5. Fold the edges at the shorter side and start rolling the dough from the wide side. I use my index and middle finger as a measure of where to cut. This depends on how big or small you want your cinnamon rolls to be. 
6. Preheat the oven to 180 °C. 
7. Press cinnamon rolls down with your fingers and add melted butter on top of them. Bake them for around 15 minutes.
