Preparation time: 30 minutes Rising time: 1 hour Baking time: 30 minutes Total: 2 hours Number of servings: 12 Ingredients For the dough: - 20 g of fresh yeast - 2 tablespoons of sugar - 200 ml of warm milk - 2 eggs - 60-70 g of melted butter - 1/2 teaspoon of salt - 500 g of flour For the filling: - 60 g of room temperature butter - 2 tablespoons of sugar - 1-2 tablespoons of cinnamon (to taste) A Brief History of the Recipe Cinnamon rolls, known as 'cinnamon rolls', are a symbol of culinary comfort. Over time, these delicacies have been prepared in various cultures as a way to bring joy and warmth into homes. Cinnamon, used as a spice, has a rich history, valued not only for its aroma but also for its beneficial properties. Step by Step to Fluffy Rolls 1. Preparing the yeast Start by activating the yeast. In a small bowl, combine the 20 g of yeast with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 200 ml of warm milk. Gently mix and let it sit in a warm place for about 10-15 minutes, until the mixture becomes frothy and doubles in volume. This is a crucial step, as activated yeast is the key to achieving a fluffy dough. 2. Forming the dough In a large bowl, add the eggs, melted butter, and salt. Once the yeast has activated, incorporate this mixture into the bowl. Begin to add the flour gradually, mixing constantly, until the dough becomes non-sticky and elastic. It is important not to add all the flour at once to control the dough's texture. 3. Rising the dough Place the dough in a bowl greased with a little oil, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in volume. During this time, you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee while the dough rises. 4. Preparing the filling In a small bowl, mix the soft butter, sugar, and cinnamon. If you love intense flavors, feel free to add the two tablespoons of cinnamon for a more pronounced taste. This filling will transform your rolls into something truly special. 5. Rolling out the dough Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a floured surface and roll it into a rectangular sheet about 1 cm thick. Evenly spread the filling mixture over the dough, ensuring it reaches all corners. 6. Forming the rolls Fold the dough into thirds, then again into thirds, forming a rectangle. Now, roll the dough out again into a sheet about 1 cm thick. Roll it tightly and cut it into pieces about 3 cm long. Place the spirals in a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between them to rise. 7. Final rising Let the rolls rise for 15-20 minutes, covered with a towel, in a warm place. This will ensure a fluffy and airy texture. 8. Baking Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the rolls for about 30 minutes, or until they turn golden and fragrant. The aromas will fill your home, and it will be hard to wait for them to cool before enjoying. 9. Serving Once they have cooled slightly, you can glaze them with a mixture of powdered sugar and water or milk for an extra touch of sweetness. These cinnamon rolls are perfect served warm, alongside a cup of coffee or fragrant tea. Useful Tips - Sugar choices: You can experiment with brown sugar, which adds a caramelized note, or maple syrup for a natural sweetness. - Vegan option: Substitute butter with margarine and eggs with banana puree or a mixture of almond milk with a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. - Delicious additions: You can add chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate for an even richer filling. Frequently Asked Questions 1. Can I use dry yeast? Yes, you can use 7 g of dry yeast instead of fresh yeast. Mix it directly with the flour. 2. How can I store the rolls? They store well in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. You can freeze them, but make sure to wrap them well. 3. What can I serve with cinnamon rolls? These rolls are delicious alongside a cup of coffee, tea, or even a fruit smoothie.
