Fluffy cinnamon rolls. Secrets of making cinnamon rolls


Finally, today I'm going to talk about my favorite sourdough cinnamon rolls. When I tried them for the first time, I could no longer forget their taste, like airy dough melting in my mouth and captivating aroma. They are no worse than my other favorites. By the way, my family and guests were also fascinated by their appetizing appearance. They dispersed among them simply at the speed of light. No matter how much I bake, they don’t last long.

You can create such a pastry according to your imagination. But I, for example, don’t really fantasize and make them with ordinary spirals, simple curls, and so on. I love eating them with tea or milk. Especially in cloudy weather, baking with aromatic spices and a cup of tea lifts my spirits. My children also often take them to school and in large quantities.

It is worth noting that I make cinnamon rolls not only with cinnamon alone, but also with additional additives in the form of apples, sugar or delicate cream. It certainly turns out incomparable. Look how I prepare all these options.

Sometimes you don’t want to deal with dough and kneading so much that it’s easier to take ready-made (store-bought) yeast dough. I defrost it in advance, roll it out well and add a creamy filling with spices. I’m not particularly clever here with the shape of the products. They still come out beautiful and appetizing.


Ingredients:

  • 500 g yeast puff pastry;
  • 1 tbsp. cinnamon;
  • 50 g butter;
  • 3 tbsp. Sahara.

Preparation:

1. First, prepare the filling. To do this, mix together cinnamon, sugar and pieces of softened butter until smooth. You will get this mass.


2. Now take the finished yeast dough. It had to be defrosted in advance at room temperature.

Do not use a microwave or oven to defrost it.

Roll it out into a large layer with a rolling pin and spread the filling prepared earlier on top.


3. After this, roll the dough into a roll and then cut into equal small pieces. Now all that remains is to place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment and coat with beaten egg. Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes.


4. When they are browned, you can remove them from the oven and as soon as you put them on the table, your house will be filled with the wonderful aroma of quinnamon. Bon appetit!


Step-by-step recipe for yeast buns with apple and cinnamon

Now it's time for apple cinnamon rolls. These two products are used to make different types of baked goods because they go well together. I once treated my guests to this pastry and they were delighted! Here's how to cook them.


Ingredients:

  • 2 apples;
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon;
  • 1 egg;
  • 40 g melted butter;
  • 200 ml. milk;
  • 1 can of boiled condensed milk;
  • 400 g flour;
  • 1 tbsp. yeast;
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil;
  • 4 tbsp. Sahara,
  • 1/4 tsp. salt.
  • 1 g. vanillin.

Preparation:

1. First, you should slightly warm the milk to 36 degrees. It should be warm to the touch, not hot. Mix it with sugar, yeast, salt and mix. Next, add the egg, butter and flour in small portions. The dough is ready, all that remains is to cover it and let it sit for 1 hour until it rises.


2. Now let's prepare the filling. We grate the apples on a coarse grater and, so that they do not darken later, sprinkle with lemon juice or 6% table vinegar.

It is better to take apples with a dense texture.

Then add a tablespoon of sugar and wait until the apples give juice. This juice must then be removed by squeezing out the entire mass.


3. Now let's do the dough. Divide it in half. Take one part and roll it into a rectangular layer 5 mm thick. Spread the top with dumplings, and then with the apple filling (only half!) and at the end sprinkle with sugar.


4. Roll the dough into a roll and cut into equal pieces. Do the same with the other part of the dough. Grease the finished pieces with milk using a pastry brush and sprinkle with a little sugar. Place the cut side down on a baking sheet and bake at 180 degrees for 20 minutes.


5. The baked goods are ready, but first cover them with a kitchen towel to make them soft. And then you can serve it on the table.

Video on how to bake beautiful cinnamon and sugar buns in the oven

In this video you can see with your own eyes all the steps in the process of making cinnamon sugar buns. At first I was interested in their unusual shape. But having tried it, I was also surprised by their taste and aroma, and they manifest themselves well when they are still warm and fresh. I just love eating them with fresh milk.

What I love most about these buns is the airy, delicate flesh, and their shape is also pleasing to the eye—it captivates and looks appetizing. As for yeast dough, you don’t have to fuss with it for a long time; it’s quite easy to knead. Try it and see for yourself! If you have questions, ask in the comments and share the article on social networks.

30 years have passed since father and son Greg and Richard Komen decided to bake the most delicious bun in the world and founded the Cinnabon bakery chain. The famous chefs kept their word, and Cinnabon buns, with the light hand of the authoritative Mexican magazine Expansion Magazine, were included in the list of the 50 most exquisite pleasures in the world. The most delicate warm dough, sweet aromatic filling and soft cream that melts in your mouth - it’s impossible to resist the delicacy, the proprietary recipe of which is not disclosed. However, everything secret becomes clear, and the recipe for Cinnabon cinnamon rolls has become known to fans of this delicacy. Let's try to cook it at home!

Cinnamon roll dough: preparing it right

Ingredients: 200 ml milk, 100 g sugar, 50 g fresh or 11 g dry yeast, 2 eggs, 80 g butter, 600-700 g flour, 1 tsp. salt.

Classic ones are made from butter dough. Warm milk is combined with 1 tbsp. sugar and yeast and leave the resulting liquid mixture for 20 minutes. While the dough rises, beat the eggs with sugar, after which salt and soft butter are added, which can be replaced with margarine. Knead the mass with your hands - it should turn out smooth and homogeneous. The next step is the most important - the dough is mixed with the butter-egg mixture and beaten in a blender. On the resulting base, carefully knead the dough from sifted flour until it stops sticking to your hands. Next, roll up a large bun, cover it with a towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1.5-2 hours. The better the dough rises, the tastier the buns turn out. During the resting time, the dough is kneaded two or three times so that it is saturated with oxygen - in this case, the buns turn out light and airy.

How to make Cinnabon with gluten


One of the company's secrets is the use of flour with a high gluten content. If you want to get as close to the perfect Cinnabon roll recipe as possible, add wheat gluten to the dough or make your own gluten. Usually 1 tbsp is enough. l. flour and 2 tbsp. l. water, from which a small lump of dough is molded and washed under running cool water. When the dough loses its density and becomes sticky and loose, the gluten can be considered ready. It is added to products along with flour to make the dough more flexible and the baked goods more fluffy.

Baking buns and cinnamon filling: nuances and subtleties

Ingredients: 50 g butter, 200 g brown sugar, 20 g cinnamon.

For Cinnabon bakeries, cinnamon comes from the mountains of Indonesia, but at home, any cinnamon mixed with sugar and liquid butter will work. Let's return to the dough: knead it for a minute, let it stand for a while under a towel and roll it out. A rectangular, thinly rolled layer measuring 30 × 40 cm and 5 mm thick is spread with cinnamon-sugar filling, leaving space around the edges to glue the roll tightly and securely. So, the dough with the filling is rolled into a tight roll, which should have a maximum of five turns. This is another secret and feature of Cinnabon buns, elevated to the brand standard. The roll is cut into 12 pieces 2.5 cm wide using thread, fishing line or a very sharp knife, otherwise the buns will become deformed and lose their appetizing appearance.

The bottom of the mold is lined with parchment paper, greased with oil and placed at some distance from each other. If you want fluffy buns, leave them to rise on the baking sheet for 15-60 minutes.

By the time of baking, the oven must be preheated to 180 °C, and the baking time is calculated individually. This will take about 20-25 minutes, and readiness is determined as usual - with a toothpick or match. If it remains dry, the buns are ready.

Cream for buns: finishing touches

Products: 60 g cream cheese (Mascarpone, Almette, Philadelphia) 100 g powdered sugar, 40 g butter, vanillin.

Classic scone cream is made from good quality butter, soft cream cheese, vanilla and powdered sugar. If you are making the cream in advance, leave it near the oven, otherwise it will harden while the buns are baking.

Cool the cake slightly and apply cream to its surface with a silicone brush. Do not cover hot items with cream, otherwise it will melt. You can sprinkle the top of the buns with cinnamon sugar.

Where should you store Cinnabon buns to prevent them from spoiling? Because of the buttercream, the baked goods are placed in the refrigerator or brushed with cream before drinking tea - in this case, the buns can be left in the bread bin. The calorie content of Cinnabon sometimes goes beyond reason, but will this stop a real gourmet? Serve the delicacy with good tea, coffee beans, hot chocolate or milk.

You can try fragrant buns, tender and airy, not only in the pastry shop. On our website you will learn how to prepare cinnamon rolls according to the usual recipe, and get interesting results by experimenting with cream and filling. The smells of cinnamon, vanilla and sweet baked goods will not leave your family indifferent. And what could be better than a cozy family tea party with homemade cakes!

The butter must be real, 82% fat, as margarine is not suitable here. Required flour with a protein content of more than 11 g / 100 g. The dough is very pleasant to work with and practically does not need to be sprinkled with flour, just a small sprinkle on the table. If the dough starts to stick at any stage, it should be cooled. Please note that the recipe is designed for a very large number of rolls (up to 1 kg of flour!). But you don't have to bake all the buns at once.

Swedish cinnamon rolls kanelbullar

I think there is nothing better to bake fragrant cinnamon rolls on such cloudy days. You already know this pastry very well even from a restaurant in Ikea. Butter, cinnamon sugar, snail-shaped buns sprinkled with pearl sugar.

Ingredients about 20 pieces:

  • 530 g wheat flour
  • 250 ml milk
  • 90 g sugar
  • half a teaspoon of salt
  • 100 g butter, melted and cooled
  • 12 g dry yeast or 25 g fresh yeast
  • 5 g ground cinnamon
  1. Mix wheat flour with dry yeast (make a solution with fresh yeast first - here are instructions), add the remaining ingredients and add melted butter.
  2. Knead the dough until it is soft and elastic.
  3. Form it into a ball, place in a floured bowl, cover with a cloth, and place in a warm place to double the dough (about 1.5 - 2 hours).
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, approximately 40 x 50 cm, carefully dusting with flour.
  5. Spread the cinnamon filling evenly.
  6. Roll the pancake to make a 50 cm long roll.
  7. Cut it into slices about 1.5 - 2 cm thick with a sharp knife or thread: place a piece of thread under the rolled out dough, then press down on it, cutting the dough into pieces.
  8. Place the buns on a baking tray lined with baking paper, a considerable distance apart from each other. Cover with foil and keep the buns warm until they have doubled in size (about 45 to 60 minutes).
  9. Brush the risen buns with sugar syrup and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
  10. Bake at 220ºC for about 8 minutes or until lightly browned. (note that the sugar will cause the buns to burn quickly, so reduce the oven temperature if necessary).

Cool. Delicious while still warm!

Cinnamon filling:

  • 100 g butter at room temperature
  • 100 g brown sugar (it’s good to use muscovado, for example)
  • 1.5 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  1. Mix all ingredients.

Sugar syrup:

  • 70 ml water
  • 1 tablespoon golden syrup
  1. Place ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Besides:

  • pearl sugar for sprinkling

If you don't have golden syrup, make simple syrup by boiling 70ml water with 60g sugar until the sugar has dissolved.
