Traditional Norwegian cinnamon buns
Ingredients:
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
salt, table
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
sugars, granulated
spices, cardamom
butter, without salt
sugars, granulated
leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry
margarine, regular, 80% fat, composite, stick, without salt
sugars, brown
spices, cinnamon, ground
margarine, regular, 80% fat, composite, stick, without salt
sugars, powdered
cheese, parmesan, hard
salt, table
Directions:
melt butter and mix with milk.
make sure the mixture is 30 C, then dissolve yeast in mixture.
You can use dry yeast instead, but then you want to mix it with the dry ingredients and increase the temperature of the milk by a couple of degrees.
However, they do turn out best with fresh yeast.
If you're using dry yeast 25 g should be enough
mix all dry ingredients well
add milk mixture to dry mixture and knead for 3-4 mins.
if you're using a machine, mix for 8 minutes
lightly grease a large bowl an place the dough in it.
leave to rise for 30 mins
When risen knead a couple of times only.
roll the dough into a rectangle.
Size depends on how chunky you want the buns.
I usually roll it out till it's 5-8 mm thick.
you'll want to handle your dough gently from now as it is rising.
smooth on a thin layer of margarine, sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon in even layers on top.
I generally use more sugar than I think I need as some of it will melt away in the oven.
Don't really measure out this part
roll into a sausage.
make sure it's pretty tightly rolled.
cut 1 inch slices.
I use my index finger to measure, so about the length of the two first joints ;)
place on baking sheets with the sliced side up.
I normally place 12 on each sheet to give them enough room to rise.
leave to rise under kitchen towels in a warm room for an hour.
Heat your oven to 210 C
Brush a bit of milk on the buns and bake for 10-15 minutes
cool on a wire rack
The icing is one I borrowed from a Cinnabon recipe
