I used to keep my children home from school 1 day sometime before Christmas and we would all bake all day long. Then they could take a plate of their goodies that THEY made to the teacher with a card they made. They were so proud that they did it. My friend always comments how my kitchen counters were FILLED with cookies and candies. We always had such a great time and it took the next day to get the kitchen clean - but SO worth it.
Well this sounds like a fun tradition!!!!!
Sounds like you are a GREAT mom!
My grands get up 3 or 4 in the morning to bake w me…. Whoever gets up 1st bakes first…
I would love to have had a childhood with a mother like you! Sounds like an awesome tradition ❤
Is it 4 cups of flour or 6 cups?
Can we just stop and applaud this woman for a minute 🎉
I baked last weekend for my Gkids and my back hurt, there was flour EVERYWHERE.
You are a true gem 💎💖
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Sugar and flour are poisons to the body!
I agree, she is a true GEM!!👏👏👏
👏👏👏👏👏
👏 👏 👏 👏❤
Made these cinnamon rolls today & they are delicious. I had never heard of mashed potatoes in them but they are lovely. I’m 84 years old & so enjoy your videos. It’s so wonderfull to see a home with strong God & family values like I grew up with.
Me too about the mashed potatoes.😳 Can you taste the potatoes?
@@user-uq2sq5wg9b I haven't made this recipe, yet. But I regularly bake bread with mashed potatoes in it (i.e. potato bread). And all the potato mash does for bread is give it extra moisture, you don't taste the potatoes themselves. Should be the same in for the cinnamon rolls.
If you're still worried, pick the blandest and most starchy potatoes you can get. The type you'd want for mashed potatoes.
My great grandmother passed down her cinnamon roll recipe which includes mashed potatoes. This recipe came from her German ancestors. I used to help my mom make these. There is no better recipe in the world.
Can’t wait to try , I love cinnamon rolls
@@user-qw2nt1dl2x I've baked them twice since my first response.
I needed to half the amount of water, probably because I don't scoop the flour (I go with the weight in grams, i.e. 125g per cup). My oven runs hot, so I had to adjust baking temperature to about 340F/25 min.
Otherwise, the recipe works like a charm.
Since it's only my husband and I, I halved the original recipe (using 3 eggs and adjusted the water accordingly). This gave me 24 rolls, 12 per form.
First time around, I made them as sticky buns. Very decadent and delicious.
Second time, I used a cream-cheese filling instead: 8 oz cream cheese, 1 1/3 c sugar, 16 tpbs soft unsalted butter, cinnamon, a dash of cardamom -> mix with handmixer until well blended. Mind you, this is the amount I used for just 24 rolls.
Will definitely make these again, recipe now lives in my recipe folder as "Amish cinnamon rolls".
I'm 65 yrs old. My 85 yr old mother still makes these every Christmas morning with homemade hot chocolate. Been tradition for over 60 yrs.
Have you ever thought of putting together a cookbook with all these recipes? I think it would be a big hit
I would buy it!
@@alisonsmith8653 That would be a wonderful present for my girls and myself ! Please do.
Me too @@alisonsmith8653
Me too!
Yes! Please!
My grandmother made these sticky buns. She used 12 pounds of flour and filled 3 five gallon buckets and gave most away. You remind me so much of her -- hardworking and so patient.
Love to get
Cinnamon roll recipe.
I just tried your cinnamon rolls recipe yesterday and it’s my new favorite recipe. Everyone agrees it’s the best I’ve ever made and I’ve been making them for years. I can’t get over the difference the mashed potatoes make. Can’t believe I never heard of adding them before.
😍😍. Truly!! So glad you agree
I'm in Southwest Iowa. We had a lovely AnaBaptist Family The Platt's and Grief Family. Zimmerman is a Family name in our Griswold School district
I made cinnamon roles and breakfast for my daughter’s prom date and her friend and her date - they finished up at the prom basically just four friends, and arrived to my house at about 1.00 am. They extended the party over omelettes and bacon and cinnamon rolls and fruit and orange juice. It was sweet and innocent and pure and I knew our children were safe, behaving and having a fun experience. No alcohol, no dangerous country roads. And, the girls were home to my house and the boys went home from my house. I was the maitre d, and waited on them discreetly. It was wonderful fun!!
You’ve made me want to try this again. Your recipe looks better than mine!! Thank you so much!!
I love the part about your little boys possibly wrapping up your own apron to give you for Christmas.
That reminded me of the time that our 8-year-old boy jumped up after unwrapping gifts Christmas morning and disappeared for a few minutes. We heard rustling upstairs, and then he returned with a messily-wrapped "present" and had us unwrap it. It was a partially-used box of Kleenex from his room.😂😂😂
Great to see when a young one catches on to what we're trying to teach.
Ive heard of Potato bread but not cinnamon rolls! I have learned alot from you and Im 60😊 and have cooked my whole life. Thanks for sharing all your treats and your life❤ I look forward to your videos.
🥰🥰 thank you for being here!!!
@@Ruthannzimm Back in 1970s when I was a kid, potatoes were my Grandma's secret ingredient in her cinnamon rolls!
69 here and so thankful I found this channel.
😂can I come live with you 😂
Jesus loves you! He died on the cross for you. Please, don’t take chances with your soul.
Romans 10:9 KJV
I loved making cinnamon rolls with my mother, she even enjoyed me helping! I have made them twice by myself over the many years that has passed. I wish I had known about using potatoes many years back. My mom was known for her bread and rolls and I think that would have made them more stellar. I was blessed with a mom that loved cooking and baking that had the patience to teach me so many things.
All these young ones at the table. All’s quiet. No bickering. Everyone enjoying the moment.
Love your channel. When I got married I couldn’t cook and started watching a PBS program Cooking from Quilt Country about Amish cooking. I ended up getting that cookbook and taught myself to cook. I added many Amish cookbooks over the years. Also have one called Mennonite Cooking . Those cookbooks are full of wonderful information and were my go to for everything. Watching your channel is a pleasure and brings back memories of my own journey as a homemaker.
Loved your expression when putting in the flour. lol Looks like my expressions sometimes in the kitchen., especially working with my grandchildren. Seeing your grown children working with the younger ones is special. You and your husband have done a wonderful job as parents.
This video not only showed how to make cinnamon rolls, but it exposed the very humble, beautiful, giving person that you are. I am impressed with both you and your mouth watering cinnamon rolls. You bake like my mother did - big batches of homemade love. May God bless you and your entire family
I have never seen 1 woman so active and organized to get so much done in 1 day. I love how u have trained your children to help make this family work.
Reminds me of how my family was growing up. My mama was like you!
I love the pan of “misfits”, what a fun idea for sampling! Can’t wait to try this recipe for Christmas morning. ❤
In the donut 🍩 biz they're called 'irregulars'... The One's that aren't uniform.... But just as yummy the baker's sampled to Check consistently and enjoy the efforts with Coffee ☕ right Before they Opened to the hungry throng line'n up outside! 😋🫶 Ahhh nothing like it! 🍩
Your videos never fail to exemplify the heart of our Father. Your family and your values preach the gospel without a pulpit!
Great job from the music, to content, to transparency…..everything involved is on point!
Could not have said it better.
Dear Ruthann, , you, are such a force of nature and you do it all with a smile. If only all children had a mother like you ❤ I'm learning from you and I'm 70 years old! Thanks for your beautiful family oriented programming..
The addition of mashed potatoes makes the cinnamon rolls way more delicious than without. We have a small business that has been a community staple for decades. Their name is the Spudnut Shop using potato flour for their variety of pastries, cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, maple bars, coconut iced along with cake pastries. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Sputnut in richland?
You are the only cook on youtube my husband has said he would like to spend time at your home and eat anything you cook or bake, which I feel the same! I think its also your personality that draws us in ! Going to try & make these for my husband since cinnamon rolls are his absolute favorite!
Thanks for these kind words!!! 😍😍😍
I agree with your husband regarding eat anything she cooks. I will even fly from CA to Iowa and clean the entire house from top to bottom for one or two of her meals ☺👍👍
This is THE BEST recipe i have found in 50 yrs of baking
I made these today. They are, bar none, the best cinnamon buns I have ever made and I have been baking since the age of nine. I am 71 now. I encourage everyone to make these, they are the best.I have tried many cinnamon roll recipes from UA-cam and NONE of them comes close to this recipe. This recipe is a heirloom keeper! Thank you for sharing. I’m a first time subscriber. I love your Bosch mixer. I’m going to purchase it so I can make the larger recipe. My Kitchen Aid can’t handle that amount. Watching a Bosch tutorial I realized how much more superior the Bosch machine performs.
Correction; after much research I decided the Ankarsrum is so far above the rest. I ordered the red one from Amazon.
Thank you for sharing your review! I’ll be making these very soon! Ps-I’ve had my Bosch for years and it was a hand me down from aunt who made many loaves of bread weekly and it’s still going. But, now I’m curious about the mixer you mentioned and want to check it out. As great as my Bosch is I don’t know if it will go for about 20 or so years, gosh it has to be older than that because I got it from her in 2016 or 2017 and it was 20+ years old then. My aunt lived to 86 and went through 2 Bosch mixers - neither died but she wanted a newer model. I was thrilled to take the old one and love it to bits! I did have a kitchen aid at one time but a double batch of my bread killed it. I love that the Bosch actually prefers and works more efficiently when it is well filled. Now I’m off to check out that mixer you mentioned. I want to be prepared if I ever find myself in need of a new mixer. Happy baking ❣️💞 🍞 😊
Making these soon!!
@@weloverescuedogs2820 How cool is that?! Your Aunt is a woman after my own heart! I still have my Kitchen Aide. I bought my first one in 1973 a year after I married. I wanted a red one so I gave my old one to my daughter 5 years ago. It’s still running. The Kitchen Aide is great for regular jobs etc but for big batches and sourdough recipes I love the Ankarshrum. I decided against the Bosch because of its size only. The Ankarshrum is more compact. I watched a video on how the mixers mix and the Ankarshrum did a complete job. They used a dough and food coloring in the dough for the demonstration. I have been using the Ankarshrum for a short while enough to know I am very happy with its performance. It fits well in my kitchen. Good luck with whatever you choose but every time you use your mixer you will think on your wonderful Aunt. ❤️
God IS good!!!! What a bounty of blessings! You seem like a true Proverbs 31 woman!!!
A mormon gal I worked with many years ago. Her mom brought us cinnamon buns to the salon I worked at they were delicious and she used potato flakes. I just thought of them a few days ago... I'll definitely have to try these out. thank you for all the time it's taken to show these videos. Really appreciate you. God bless.
Do you just add the flakes or mix it first
The recipe calls for "prepared" instant potatoes.
Ruthanne you are not allowed to be a snoop sister, no peeking at presents under the Christmas tree!! How cute are the little boys wrapping you a 🎁 ❤Those buns and pies looks delicious!! The kids looked like they were enjoying their after school treat!! ❤🙏🇮🇪
Thank you!!!! It was a desperate search for my missing apron!!!
@@Ruthannzimm😮😂
I love the freedom to be boys that you give these children. You have much patience and generosity in your heart! Merry Christmas!!
I use this same recipe. I come from Amish background. Yes, these do bring the older kids home🥰. Lol, your littles wrapped one of your aprons is the sweetest thing ever.
This channel is my guilty pleasure, I commend you. You are such a loving wife and mother. You are so active and caring. It’s awesome to see we still have good families in this country.
I grew up in the Moravian church and we make our sweet cinnamon Moravian cake with mashed potatoes so this makes perfect sense to me
You need to compile all your receipts into a book and sell it. I would love to purchase a cookbook from you. I have a stack of your papers but I’ll probably loose them. It’s really a joy to watch your videos and see your adorable family. Plus with everything going on in the world I think we are going back to an earlier time and your ideas will come in handy. Thanks so much!
I found that putting the printed recipes in page protectors and into a binder has kept them together and clean. I'm loving my RuthAnn Binder!!
@Longfamily3 Same here with page protectors, I personally love coming to UA-cam for RuthAnn and the recipes and the warm family feeling cooking with her. ♥♥
I do the same thing.
I agree
Awwww, my dad used to make us cinnamon buns Christmas mornings every year! He wasn't normally a baker, but somehow they always came out amazing 😂
Hi, I baked your cinnamon bun recipe for christmas. We loved them. I had 63 big buns, I used cane sugar in the dough and the flavors were great. I put a cream cheese frosting on them and froze them. This will be a recipe I will use for years, thank you for sharing.
We are delivering our Christmas Caramels to our Amish friends today, and now I am hoping that we happen to find some freshly baked cinnamon rolls. Your rolls look so delicious and the added bonus is the sticky buns! Thanks for sharing this recipe. The way you broke it down makes it seem easier to do. I think I will give it a try. A Merry Christmas to your family.
Thank you!!!!
Hello, my name is Lorraine and I live in Reno Nevada period I have absolutely no contacts with the Amish community period and at some point. Hopefully, within the next year or so, I would like to buy a handmaid beautiful quilt period do you know of any contacts that you might be able to share with me question mark a shop, phone number, something period Thank you so much for sharing your ideas with this channel period😅😅
Cinnamon rolls has always been a Christmas morning tradition. I half the yeast and let them rise in the fridge overnight and bake fresh in the morning. Such a nice treat.
I found your channel just this weekend, and I'm glad I did. I made your cinnamon rolls, and they are the best ever!
I am enjoying your channel. I love how you are teaching your children, ALL of your children, to cook, farm, sew, and take care of the animals. You are giving them numerous life tools. In the future they will thank you for how you've raised them.
Yummy 😋
Oh my goodness, I made these today! A single batch. I ended up delivering to my friends. They RAVED how good they were! You made a double batch kudos to you for doing a double batch! 👏 a single batch was up into my mixer lol but they are the BEST cinnamon rolls ever. Thank you for sharing. I’m an avid fan and love your wholesome channel.
Our amish friends make doughnuts using mashed potatoes! They are the best! Definitely using your recipe for our Christmas morning cinnamon rolls. ❤ Thank you!
It's the secret in Crispy cremes!
I love potato rolls. They have a richer taste than plain yeast rolls.
I made these for my farmers market yesterday and got compliments from customers. I used cream cheese frosting on most of them. The dough was nice to work with.
That’s wonderful
I made those Rolo pretzel treats for my work Christmas party a couple of weeks ago and no one had ever had them before, but everyone loved them!
Gonna Try em too... Looks too easy lol.... But I'm sure they're good with the salty pretzel crunch Carmel chocolate coating and pecan crown 👑
Same at my house. Mom always made sticky buns for Christmas morning. Now she lives with me and if my brother is visiting at Christmas i make them again. I am going to try the addition of potatoes this year. I've been baking a long time and never heard that and it makes tons of sense.
I've made sweet rolls for over 40 years, but your recipe takes them to a whole new level! I will definitely make these. Thank you for another wonderful visit ❤
I've been making cinnamon rolls all week that I sell! These are very lovely! I usually save my potato water and add it to my bread! Our church makes cinnamon rolls to sell for missionary and that ones uses potato flakes. Thanks for sharing ruthann!
Love the apron story and watching them tear into the rolls!! You are an awesome awesome mom!!! God's blessings to you all.....🥰🥰🥰🥰
There is nothing better than cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning. And you're absolutely correct, my grown children and now grandchildren ask every year if I am making cinnamon rolls. But I have always gotten up about 3.30 am to get them made by the time everyone is up. I am going to try your method. And I am excited to try your recipe.
We just celebrated St. Lucia and cinnamon rolls are a must. My friend Betsy makes the absolute best cinnamon rolls. I wonder if this is her secret too.
I love that the boys wrap of your things around the house as gifts and i love even more your example of grace toward them in their efforts of gift giving. 🥰
I've made homemade cinnamon rolls for years and never thought to use mashed potatoes in them. Also thanks for the sticky bun recipe as well. I can make myself sick off of sticky buns.
Going to try this out this weekend. Heck, I may even do it tonight. 😂
This is something we did in food prep in institutional foods class about 45 years ago. It was the best ever
Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you sharing your recipes and farm life with us.
These are amazing! Yesterday my daughter and I spent the day baking a double batch. We delivered them last night and they were well received. Our crew loved the ones we tried. We’ve kept 2 pans for Christmas. Thank you for sharing such a simple but wonderful recipe!
This is my first time coming across your channel, and I must say, these Cinnamon Rolls grabbed my attention. This video will be saved in my "Yumms" playlist on my UA-cam page, to be tried later. I will, of course, cut the recipe down a bit, but then again, maybe making them would lure my grown children into coming for a visit. 😉 On another note, I am 70 years old, and you, young lady, do not look old enough to have grown children needing to be lured home for Christmas.
We used your sugar cookie recipe for our co-op Christmas party. The dough is incredible, and they got rave reviews. The best!
That is awesome!
My grandmother's yeast rolls had potatoes in it,and they were divine. The entire family has continued to make them, to pass this on as well. I cannot wait to try a cinnamon roll version 😋.
Ok I made these. Single batch! It made 50 cinnamon rolls! Well 48! They are by far the best I have ever had! I am sharing like crazy!! Thank you!
Fabulous! I love seeing the family participating. Beautiful food!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Our family also has cookie decorating parties at Christmas (health permitting 🙄). Teaching the littles about “less is more” is always a fun challenge. Thanks once again for the great recipes.
This warmed my heart❤ Thank you for this tutorial! I love that the little boys may have wrapped your beloved apron for a present 😆When you open it you'll be so genuinely happy to have it back. They obviously loved the after school treat! And the momories made while baking and making as a family❤
I’m soooo hungry!!!! Your channel is so warm!!!! So nice to listen to you!!!
It just warms the heart to see such a loving family! 🥰🥰
I remember my mom and grandma making cinnamon rolls and how good they tasted. Nothing like homemade! Thank you
Just baking 3 pecan pies for gifting while watching you bake today. I feel my blood sugar rising through the screen. Yummy! You had me at cream cheese icing.
I love watching your sweet family eating the cinnamon buns! So cute and so many memories!
What a fun tradition. Thank you for sharing another yummy recipe. Your boys ate the sweetest. I I hope you get your red apron for Christmas. Such a beautiful family, such a wonderful time of year.
I love that you make a double recipe! That’s what I always do, too. So many others make tiny recipes of cookies that make about 12-18 cookies and I so dislike seeing this knowing I need to triple a recipe like this. So thank you for baking and cooking like many of us like to do! We so appreciate you! Merry Christmas!
Ruth Ann, I want to thank you for sharing your life and family recipes with the world. I too have Mennonite heritage and lots of our family recipes have been lost through the generations. I was surprised to see your recipe contained potatoes. Our donut recipe, we call spudnuts, contains potatoes too. Thank you for sharing! God bless you and your family.
I’m learning how you keep organized and moving forward. So truly admire you.
Thank you for sharing this with us. You are a precious beautiful lady and I gotta tell you, I thought you were in your 20's until you said 'my grown children'! My two best friends in High School in Arkansas were twin sisters, Karen & Kathy Zimmerman. Their family moved down from Illinois in 1976 (our sophomore year). They were the middle two kids of 14! God bless you and your family!
I am so happy that I found your channel. You are a wealth of knowledge and an absolutely wonderful teacher. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Welcome and Merry Christmas
@@Ruthannzimm What kind of flour? Plain ?
I just love watching you and your family… I envy you all for not only the knowledge and skills that you seem to learn through osmosis, but also for the camaraderie and sense of family that comes as easily to you all as breathing. Living, working, playing together and helping each other without a thought, because that’s just the way that things are done..
Thanks so much
I love that you are passing on the skills you learned to your children.
Thank you for sharing your family traditions with us. I look forward to trying these cinnamon rolls!🎉
❤ Ruth Ann you are a blessing! And a rock star! Your family recipes are as treasure that we are blessed to partake of from you. Thank you so much!
What wonderful traditions you have!
Merry Christmas Zimmermann's!
God bless you one and all!
I have been looking for this recipe for 20+ years! Thank you!
These look amazing! I liked how the roll re-expanded after you cut one. That was cool
Such fun, watching you bake-but knowing I won’t be tempted to eat the delicious looking buns! It was also fun to see the Bosch mixer; I had one years ago, but foolishly gave it to a friend when we moved across the continent. Bosch mixers are total workhorses!!
I love watching you cook . I used to cook for a large family but I only have myself to cook for now. I can vouch for mashed potatoes as I used to make a chocolate potato cake which my sons loved and it was so delicious every time I made it. Keep the videos coming and Merry Christmas to you all 🥰🇦🇺
I love your spirit and how you prepare your food with love and care. It makes a world of difference😊!
You're so delightful to watch! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
You're such an inspiration Ruth Ann! I hope we see a picture of Stacey and Johnny at their bridle shower. Love your videos and your cheerfulness. Enjoy the season! ❤Patsy
Those cinnamon rolls look fantastic! Now, I'm thinking about making some for Christmas.
Thank you for sharing. I hope y'all are warm and safe.
This is absolutely amazing. I'm so glad that more cultures are using the internet to get things like this to the rest of us. Cant wait to try these
What an awesome and, as always, very informative video! It's wonderful how you understood that some of your children needed weaning off of foods containing artificial ingredients. Your wisdom is such a blessing for your family ❤
Beautiful Cinnamon Rolls. Thank you for sharing.
Your family/community are surely blessed by you.
They look sooo good !!!
Beautiful Family/Traditions.
Thank you for sharing.
Your cinnamon rolls looked amazing! That was a huge batch! The story about your apron was too precious. I loved seeing your family making beautiful memories and treats. Merry Christmas to you all. Blessings!
Everything you do is amazing! Just made your sour dough sandwich bead and it came out so good. Can’t wait to try these.
I love your ambition and the stool you used to get the kneading done on the dough. Love your style and your videos.
Thank you Mrs. Zimmerman God is good and so are you and cinnamon rolls. Merry Christmas
I cannot WAIT to try my hand at these! Thank you for what appears to be the perfect cinnamon roll recipe!! Merry Christmas❣️
We made these this year for Christmas and had so many that we sampled a pan for dessert that night. I rolled them a little to thin, but these are the fluffiest cinnamon buns we’ve ever had! Absolutely delicious.
Wonderful!!!!
Just found your channel a few days ago and I am addicted to your videos. You have taught me so much. I am originally from north eastern Pennsylvania right in the heart of Amish and Mennonite country.
The Children's faces say it all LOVE ❤ So sweet.
Made your cinnamon rolls exactly by your recipe today and absolutely loved them!!! My daughter hates mashed potatoes but really really loved these. This will now be our new Christmas cinnamon roll recipe. Thank you so much for sharing!
Oh goodness RuthAnn, Amish Buns I totally forgot about until I sae this... bringing back a Christmas Tradition from years gone by!!
Thank you for sharing!
Merry Christmas and blessings to y'all ❤
MERRY CHRISTMAS you guys! It looks like you're going to have a good one with all the goodies! I for one truly enjoy watching your vids and your calm spirit! God bless you all!!!
In Sweden, we use milk, a little sugar and no water and real, soft yeast. I discovered that it is not needed to ad buttr in the dough, but I roll the dough out and ad butter and fold a couple of times, then I rool it out to a flat sheet and ad the last butter, sugar and cinnamon to some of them but not to all. They become crispy like this. Ifm I want them soft, I ad butter into the flour and not into the milk, rool out and put only one layer of butter, then a little sugar and cinnamon or nothing more as ususal.
