No yeast in a recipe is a good thing. As soon as I hear no yeast anything, I visualize a flat-baked bread or pastry. Before, I thought that if I didn’t put yeast in my cooking it just won’t work outright. After trying a few recipes without yeast, I found that it actually works well and the bread turns out soft. traditional yeast cinnamon roll recipes are more time-consuming and can sometimes turn out as more cakey rolls. That’s why no yeast is a good idea. Making easy homemade cinnamon rolls just got easier, saving you much time.

Why is yeast bad for you?

Yeast is a fungus, and not all come in the same shape or form. Different types of yeast are used in bread and to brew beer. One can live inside the body, while another can outside. There are many kinds of yeasts.

If your immune system is weak, it could be much easier for you to develop a yeast infection. It can become a serious health issue, such as candidiasis, while some don’t even know they might have it. A small amount of yeast in the body is actually not a bad thing, but too much can cause health problems and infections.

If you think that no-yeast is the best part of this original recipe, wait until you hear this: this no yeast cinnamon rolls recipe is easy to make and takes less time than traditional cinnamon rolls. Instead of waiting for the dough to rise or rest, you can combine the dough ingredients and put it together right away. The end result comes faster this way, and you don’t have to spend time with tricky yeasted dough.

Let’s talk about that filling!

The cinnamon filling in this sweet breakfast option has melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon, of course. I recommend mixing the cinnamon-sugar filling in a separate bowl before spreading it out onto the dough. That way, you’ll get an even mix of the flavors throughout these no yeast rolls.

I think that making the filling is always the simplest component in this easy cinnamon buns. The vanilla cream glaze also deserves an honorable mention, though! Cream cheese icing takes more ingredients and time to put together than this simple frosting mixture of powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. You don’t need to wait for anything to soften or be room temperature. A quick mix and drizzle on top of the rolls makes these warm rolls perfectly sweetened in a shorter time frame.

Next time you crave cinnamon rolls, you’ll know that this recipe has all of the good stuff. Whether it’s a Saturday morning or just a regular weekday, these cinnamon rolls will always please, with the best frosting recipe and the lack of yeast. They’ll always save you time!

Ingredients to Make Easy No-Yeast Cinnamon Rolls (from scratch)

First, you would need to gather the ingredients for the dough:

All purpose flour: Unbleached, preferably.

Baking powder: The double-acting no aluminum!

Butter: Unsalted only.

Buttermilk: It is low in fat and contains most of the proteins that are originally in the milk.

For the filling for the no-yeast cinnamon rolls, you will need just three ingredients:

Butter: unsalted only, softened butter.

Brown sugar:Light brown or just regular brown works best.

Cinnamon: No brainer! A must for cinnamon buns.

For the vanilla cream glaze, you will also need just 3 ingredients:

Powdered sugar: Can’t be substituted for white sugar, make sure to use powdered sugar (or confectioners sugar)

Vanilla: This is great for flavoring.

Milk: I like to use whole, organic milk.

They are not as fluffy as with yeast, but it's healthier without yeast.
