Oh yah, and these cinnamon rolls? They're 5 points apiece which is what I normally try and eat around breakfast time. Have some fruit with them. The pomegranates were just for decorations since there were some leftovers from my salad. You can leave those out.

Ingredients Needed

• Self-rising flour -is a type of flour that already contains baking powder and salt, which are essential ingredients in many baked goods.
• Plain fat free Greek Yogurt  - is considered great for a variety of reasons. It is typically higher in protein and lower in sugar than regular yogurt, making it a good choice for those looking to maintain a balanced diet.
• Vanilla, divided  - It is made by macerating and soaking vanilla beans in a mixture of water and Vodka. Use a good pure vanilla instead of the imitation vanilla extract.
• Eggs - The best type of eggs you can buy at the store are organic or free-range eggs, while others may prefer eggs from specific breeds of chickens
• Butter Spray (20 sprays) - I like to use I Can't Believe it's Not Butter Spray
• Brown sugar  -  Is made by combining granulated white sugar with molasses, which gives it a brown color and a slightly different taste than regular white sugar.
• Cinnamon  - is a spice that comes from the inner bark of several trees from the genus Cinnamomum.
• Cooking spray
• Powdered sugar, divided - for icing

How to Make 2 Ingredient Dough Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F.

Step 2: Mix flour and Greek yogurt together in a medium bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a surface dusted with more self-rising flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Continue adding flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.

Step 3. Place a large piece of parchment paper on a work surface and sprinkle with a little flour. Place dough on parchment paper. (You can skip this step if you're work surface is clean) Sprinkle extra flour and roll out the dough with a rolling pin to form a large 10x12-inch rectangle.

Step 4. Spritz the dough evenly with Butter Spray. P.S You can also take the spray cap off and just drizzle the butter on top of the dough. Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon, all the way to the edges.

Step 5: Starting with a long edge, roll up dough tightly (use parchment paper to help roll up the dough) to form a 12-inch-long roll. You can use this same method making easy breadstick recipes. Try out Easy Cheesy Garlic Bread Sticks next.

Step 6. Cut roll into 8(1-inch) slices. Arrange dough slices in an 11 x 7–inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake until lightly browned, 22 to 25 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before topping with glaze.

Step 7. Combine remaining ½ cup powdered sugar, remaining 2 tablespoon yogurt or milk, and remaining ¼ teaspoon vanilla, stirring until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cinnamon rolls. Serve warm.

8. Serving size: 1 cinnamon roll, 5 points

Notes

My WW Personal Points: 5 Click here to see in recipe builder (will have to log in) 

Greek Yogurt with self-rising flour can be really tricky to work with. If the dough is sticky add some more flour to the surface or rolling pin.
