As I have mentioned before, husband Bob is diabetic. So he's constantly casting around for new methods and new foods for his diet. He is particularly fond of breads. His bread machine never cools down. If we can't eat it, the neighbors can. Since he has to limit his carbohydrate intake, the neighbors and guests get a lot of fresh bread.

I had five women house guests for four days earlier this month, and he baked them his no-fat (except for the chopped nuts if you use them) no-sugar cinnamon rolls. They mowed right through them and demanded the recipe. I got Bob to write it up and figured I'd just share it with everyone.

Bob's Cinnamon Rolls

1 cup water
2 tablespoons margarine/butter/softened(I substitute fat free Smucker's Baking Healthy, which can be found in the baking section of most food stores)
3 and 1/3 cups flour
1 egg (you could use 1/4 cup of Eggbeaters here)
1/4 cup sugar substitute (I use Sugar Twin.)
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons regular active dry yeast
or
3 teaspoons of bread machine yeast

1. Place ingredients in bread machine pan in order listed. Set to dough-only cycle and start.
2. During the kneading cycle I like to add 1/2 cup raisins, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
3. When the dough is ready, turn out onto a hard surface (board or counter) and work dough into a 9x18 inch rectangle with a rolling pin. Remember to lightly flour your surfaces so that the dough does not stick.

For the filling I use:
1/3 cup Brown Sugar Twin
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Pam or melted no-fat margarine

4. Spread the rectangle with Pam or the melted margarine, sprinkle with the sugar/cinnamon mix and up roll up tightly, beginning at the 9 inch side. Pinch edge of dough into the roll to seal.
5. Cut roll into generous 1 inch slices. Should make 9/10 rolls. Place slices into one 9x13 and one 9x9 greased pans. Cover and let rise in warm place until double.

Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until tops are golden brown.

(Optional) Allow to cool ten minutes then cover with your choice of prepared frosting. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts.
