Instructions
- 1
Grease a 7-inch (17 cm) springform pan with non stick cooking spray.
- 2
Cut a 7-inch (17 cm) round of parchment paper to fit over the pan and set aside.
- 3
Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- 4
Add the milk and melted butter and mix with a rubber spatula until a rough dough forms.
- 5
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until stiff, about 3 minutes.
- 6
Roll the dough out to a 9 x 12-inch (22 x 30 cm) rectangle.
- 7
Make the filling: Brush the dough with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- 8
In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- 9
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar filling over the dough and press into the melted butter.
- 10
Starting from a long end, roll up the dough, forming a log, and pinch the seam closed.
- 11
Place seam-side down.
- 12
Cut into 8 equal pieces, each about 1½ inches (3 cm) wide.
- 13
Place the rolls, cut-side up, in the prepared pan and brush the tops with the remaining tablespoon of melted butter.
- 14
Place the parchment round on top and wrap the entire pan tightly with foil.
- 15
Place the trivet inside the Instant Pot and pour in the water.
- 16
Lower the pan with the cinnamon rolls into the Instant Pot, close, and set to manual high pressure.
- 17
Set the timer for 25 minutes.
- 18
When the 25 minutes has elapsed, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release the pressure for 15 minutes, then manually release the remaining steam.

Meanwhile, make the icing: Add the powdered sugar, cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and milk to a large bowl.
- 20
Beat with an electric hand mixer until fully combined and smooth, about 2 minutes.
- 21
Carefully remove the pan with the cinnamon rolls from the Instant Pot.
- 22
Unwrap the pan, release the springform, and transfer the rolls to a serving platter.

Spread the icing all over the top of the cinnamon rolls and serve warm.
