Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Place parchment paper or a silpat on a baking sheet. If using parchment paper, spray with oil to avoid sticking.
  3. In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon and salt and whisk well.
  4. Add the yogurt and raisins, mix with a fork or spatula until well combined, it will look like small crumbles.
  5. Lightly dust flour on a work surface and remove dough from the bowl, knead the dough a few times until dough is tacky, but not sticky, about 10 to 15 turns (it should not leave dough on your hand when you pull away).
  6. Divide into 8 equal balls. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Top with egg wash. Bake on the top rack of the oven for 25 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes before icing.
For the Icing
  1. In a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Transfer to a small ziplock bag and cut the tip. Ice the tops of the rolls in a cross pattern.
