Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Prepare all the necessary products for the test. Melt the butter in the microwave or oven and cool slightly to room temperature. Warm the milk and water slightly too.

Step 2

Step 2
Opara. In a bowl, combine half the warm milk, warm water, 1 tbsp. l. sugar and dry instant yeast. Stir and leave for 15 minutes. Yeast should be selected that needs to be pre-filled with warm liquid to activate it.

Step 3

Step 3
Beat the egg in a deep bowl. Add the remaining milk and melted butter to it.

Step 4

Step 4
Add the dough, the remaining sugar, salt, vanilla sugar. Stir everything.

Step 5

Step 5
Add sifted flour.

Step 6

Step 6
Knead soft elastic dough. At first, the dough will stick very much to your hands. As you knead, the dough becomes more elastic and less sticky. However, a slight stickiness should remain. Add additional flour just a little at a time. There is no need to try to pour in a lot of flour at once to remove stickiness, otherwise the dough in the finished buns will be too dense and tasteless. The dough itself will take as much flour as it needs.

Step 7

Step 7
Cover the dough with a towel and leave to rise for 50 minutes in a warm place.

Step 8

Step 8
Measure out ingredients for filling. It is better to take brown cane sugar, but you can also replace it with regular white sugar.

Step 9

Step 9
Mix brown sugar, cinnamon and soft butter.

Step 10

Step 10
Knead the dough and roll out on a floured surface into an even rectangle about 7 mm thick. Spread the filling evenly over the dough.

Step 11

Step 11
Roll the dough into a tight roll.

Step 12

Step 12
Cut the roll into pieces about 4 cm thick. You should get 7-8 pieces.

Step 13

Step 13
Place the resulting rolls in a buttered pan, cut side down, leaving a little space between them. Leave to rise for 15-20 minutes. Bake the buns for about 30 minutes at 190°C.

Step 14

Step 14
You can eat the cinnamon cinnabons immediately after baking or make a frosting for them.

Step 15

Step 15
Pour boiling water and vegetable oil into the powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth.

Step 16

Step 16
Pour the glaze over the hot buns without removing them from the mold and let it harden. And you can serve it to the table. Bon appetit!
