These Quick Cinnamon Rolls are soft and delicious and much quicker to make than the regular ones. The recipe is a variation of quick vanilla rolls we used to make with my best friend when we were children. You just simply mix the ingredients, form the rolls and bake them. Have a delicious national cinnamon roll day!

- 2 tsp cardamom
- 1⁄2 tsp salt
- 6 dl all-purpose flour (2 1/2 cups)

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees celsius (392 °F). Dissolve the yeast into warm milk. Add the sugar, cardamom and salt. Add the flour and the soft butter.
Roll the dough into a thin sheet on a surface dusted with flour. Mix the soft butter, sugar and cinnamon. Spread the filling onto the dough. Roll the dough and cut it into about 2 cm wide pieces.

Notes
You can also make larger cinnamon rolls in a regular sized muffin pan and bake them for a little bit longer. You’ll get about 20 normal sized buns from the recipe (scale 1x).
