Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Ginger — Make sure to use fresh ginger for the best flavor. Peel the ginger before grating it into the dough.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra burst of flavor, add a teaspoon of orange zest to the dough.
  • If you prefer a gooey filling, drizzle a simple glaze made with powdered sugar and milk over the rolls while they are still warm.
  • These rolls are best enjoyed on the day they are made, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Serving advice

Serve the Ginger Cinnamon Rolls warm for the ultimate indulgence. They are delicious on their own, but you can also serve them with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.

Presentation advice

Arrange the Ginger Cinnamon Rolls on a platter or a cake stand, allowing their golden-brown tops to be visible. Dust them with powdered sugar for an elegant touch, or drizzle a glaze over them for a more decadent presentation.
