Instructions
  1. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  2. Pour room temperature milk into the dry ingredients and mix.

  5. Add olive oil and beaten eggs, mix well.
  6. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly.
  7. Transfer dough onto a floured surface and knead for a while.

  9. Add more flour if the dough is sticky.
  10. Sprinkle some flour in a bowl and place the dough inside.
  11. Cover with a cloth and set aside for about an hour until the dough doubles in size.
  12. Transfer proofed dough onto a floured surface and knead briefly.
  13. Divide the dough into halves.
  14. Roll one half of the dough flat into a large rectangular shape.

Recipe Notes
  1. If cinnamon roll doughs are not arranged close together in a rectangular tray, tug the end of each roll underneath to prevent the rolls from opening up during baking.
  2. To prevent raisins from burning, you could mix the raisins in the dough before rolling dough out.
