Preparation
- Prepare all the ingredients for making the yeasted dough. Sift the flour, the eggs and butter should be at room temperature, take them out of the refrigerator in advance. Warm the milk to a temperature of 32-36⁰ C.
- First, you need to make the sponge. Add sugar to the warm milk, one teaspoon from the total amount. A couple of spoonfuls of flour, also from the total amount, and the yeast.
- Mix the mixture with a whisk. Cover the bowl with a towel, plastic wrap, or a lid and place it in a warm place for about fifteen minutes to activate the yeast.
- In a deep bowl, crack the eggs, add the remaining sugar and salt. Stir.
- The yeast has risen well, forming a high foam cap.
- Pour the yeast into the egg mixture.
- Gradually add flour to the mixture. Vanilla was added to the flour in advance.
- Add soft butter to the dough. Continue to knead the dough with a whisk.
- When it becomes difficult to mix with a whisk, sprinkle the work surface with flour and transfer the dough onto it. Continue kneading by hand for about seven to ten minutes. The dough will be slightly sticky, sticking to the hands and the table. You can additionally add thirty grams of flour, but no more.
- Transfer the dough to a bowl previously greased with vegetable oil, cover with plastic wrap, and place in a warm place to rise. For this stage, it's very convenient to use the oven. Preheat the oven to thirty degrees and turn off the heating. In the oven, only turn on the light; it provides not only illumination but also maintains the temperature inside. Now place the bowl with the dough in the oven for one hour.
- For the filling, prepare soft butter, sugar, and cinnamon. The butter should be soft.
- Mix sugar with cinnamon.
- After an hour, take the bowl with the dough out of the oven; it has doubled in size, becoming soft and fluffy.
- Lightly sprinkle the table with flour and place the dough on it. After rising, the dough completely stopped sticking to the hands. Stretch the dough into a rectangle.
- Fold the dough into an envelope shape.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a thin rectangular sheet, 5-7 millimeters thick.
- Spread a layer of soft butter over the surface of the dough. The amount of butter should be chosen individually.
- Generously cover the layer of butter with sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll the dough into a log. The log should not be rolled too tightly, but it should also not come undone.
- Grease the mold with vegetable oil.
- Cut the log into portioned rolls. To make the rolls even, it's very convenient to cut the log using simple thread. Place the rolls in the mold with some space between them.
- Bake the Cinnabons for twenty-five to thirty minutes at 180⁰ C until golden brown.
- Cinnabons are distinguished by the fact that while still hot, they need to be topped with cream frosting. You will need cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk (a few tablespoons as needed). Milk can be added if the frosting turns out thick.
- Mix all the ingredients thoroughly into a dense, homogeneous mass.
- While still hot, we cover the cinnamon rolls with the most delicious cream. The rolls absorb the cream and become incredibly tender. And the cinnamon adds a fantastic aroma.
Cinnamon rolls are truly homemade baking. Enjoy your meal.
