Cinnamon Buns

Slightly changed, the recipe comes from this website.


Ingredients (for around 20 buns, depending on size):
  • 20g of fresh yeast
  • 3 tablespoons of sugar
  • 2 glasses of flour
  • 1/2 glass of milk
  • 1 egg
  • 63g of melted, cooled down butter
  • pinch of salt

Filling:
  • 70-80g of melted butter
  • 1/3-1/2 glass of brown sugar
  • few teaspoons of ground cinnamon

Optional filling ingredients:
  • raisins

Preparation:
  1. Take a bowl, put yest, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of flour and half of the milk, stir, to prepare a leaven and put aside in a warm place, for around 15 minutes (it needs to double its size).
  2. During that time, melt 63g of butter and cool down a little.
  3. Take another bowl, put remaining flour, salt, egg and the rest of milk and sugar inside. Add the leaven. Knead for around 10 minutes, till smooth. 
  4. Add milk and knead again till it stops sticking to a hand. Put aside in a warm place, so that it doubles its size again (it may take more time than previously).
  5. During that time, melt the butter for the filling.
  6. Take a baking tray, put baking paper on it. Put aside.
  7. Divide the dough into 3 parts. Take a rolling pin and roll out (using only a little flour) the first piece. Distibute the butter all over, sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon and opitionally raisins.
  8. Roll up (tight, tube shape) and cut into 3-4 cm pieces.
  9. Put every piece gently on previously prepared baking tray, leaving some space between every bun, cause they will grow up.
  10. Bake for 10-15 minutes in 180C.
  11. Bon appetit! ;)
