Why do some cinnamon rolls fail to rise during baking?

Hey baking buddies! Ever had cinnamon rolls that didn't quite puff up like they should? What could be causing this baking mishap? I'm curious to unravel the mystery behind flat rolls!

Hey baking buddies! If your cinnamon rolls aren't puffing up, it could be due to a few things. One common reason is that the yeast might not be active enough, either because it was old or the liquid used was too hot or too cold. Another culprit could be not letting the dough rise long enough; it needs time to double in size. Finally, overworking the dough can also make it tough and less likely to puff up. Happy baking!

One reason your cinnamon rolls aren't rising is the dough is under-kneaded. So, you might want to knead the dough enough next time. Another possible issue is there's too much sugar or fat in the dough. So, make sure to measure these ingredients accurately.
