Cinnamon Buns

Cinnamon Buns is a satisfying treat that’s hard to resist! They’re soft, sweet and smell so delicious in your kitchen. We have a Cinnamon Buns baking class taught by Tom Bayford, an expert pastry chef who’s executed desserts for Britain’s Royal Family and Hollywood celebrities.  This recipe is courtesy of Tom.

Method 

In a mixer bowl, add the instant dry yeast and warm water and stir until the yeast is dissolved.
Add in flour, sugar, salt, eggs and butter into the bowl. 

Attach a dough hook to your mixer. Switch on your mixer at the low speed and gradually increase to medium speed until you get a soft dough. The dough should be kneaded until it's soft and almost "cleans up" the mixing bowl. See below

-->
Remove the dough, roll it into a ball and let it rest in a lightly greased bowl, covered, until the dough almost doubles in size, about 20-30 minutes.








-->
Knead your dough a bit. To test if your dough is ready for rolling, tear a small piece off and stretch the dough in 4 corners. It should be slightly translucent when you stretch it.  This is known as the “window test”.


  -->
Roll your doug out into a rectangle or square about ½ cm  thick and sprinkle your filling. Then roll your dough into a log and cut it into 12 pieces.  Place the buns on two parchment-lined 13”x18”  baking tray. 

 
-->
Cover your cinnamon buns (with a slightly damp cloth or cling wrap) to proof and let it rest in a warm spot about 45 minutes. Alternatively, place your trays in a oven (not turned on), with a bowl of hot water underneath. See below.


-->
Apply an egg wash and bake it in a 350F oven for 20-25 minutes.
