Cinnamon Streusel Buns Recipes

CINNAMON CRUMBLE BUNS

Steps:

• For the dough: Whisk together the bread flour, mashed potato flakes, granulated sugar, cinnamon, yeast and salt in a large bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the milk, vanilla and eggs; whisk to break up the eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the dough just comes together.
• Add the butter, one piece at a time, mixing until incorporated. Continue to mix until the dough comes together in a ball. If the dough is sticking a lot to the sides of the bowl, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until most of the dough no longer sticks. (A little sticking to the bottom of the bowl, beneath the hook, is fine. Adding too much flour will make the buns dry, so use a light hand.)
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand until shiny and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. (The dough should be very soft but not wet and sticky; a little tacky is OK.) Place the dough in a large bowl sprayed with nonstick spray; lightly spray the top of the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm corner of your kitchen until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
• For the filling: Stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Roll the dough out into a long rectangle, about 10-by-21 inches. Brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, followed by 4 cups of frozen Crumble. Starting from a long side, roll the dough into a jelly roll.
• Cut the log into 2-inch pieces and place, cut-side down, in a buttered 10-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle 1 cup of Crumble over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy and nearly doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the buns, loosely wrapped in foil, for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown on top, about 5 more minutes.
• For the glaze: Meanwhile, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
• While the buns are still warm (but not hot), drizzle with the glaze. Serve warm.
• Combine the all-purpose flour, melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Stir together and then work with a spoon or your fingers until the butter is absorbed and the mixture forms clumps. Place in a resealable plastic bag and freeze until needed.

CINNAMON STREUSEL CRUMB TOPPING

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until crumbly. Alternatively, you can mash the ingredients together in a bowl using a fork . Don't use your fingers, since the warmth of your fingers will soften the butter and cause the crumb texture to become mealy.
• Sprinkle the topping over muffins, pies, or coffee cake immediately before baking.
• Bake muffins, pies, or coffee cake.

• In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture, milk mixture, eggs and 1 1/2 cup flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• While dough is rising, melt 3/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3/4 cup brown sugar, whisking until smooth. Pour into greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Sprinkle bottom of pan with 1/2 cup pecans; set aside. Melt remaining butter; set aside. Combine remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup pecans, and cinnamon; set aside.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, roll into an 18x14 inch rectangle. Brush with 2 tablespoons melted butter, leaving 1/2 inch border uncovered; sprinkle with brown sugar cinnamon mixture. Starting at long side, tightly roll up, pinching seam to seal. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. With serrated knife, cut into 15 pieces; place cut side down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in volume. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool in pan for 3 minutes, then invert onto serving platter. Scrape remaining filling from the pan onto the rolls.

CINNAMON BUN PANCAKES

Steps:

• For the swirl: Combine the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Pour into a small plastic re-sealable bag and cut 1/4 inch off a corner and store it with the opening upright in a small glass until ready to use.
• For the icing: Combine the confectioners' sugar, butter, milk and salt in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and set side.
• For the pancakes: Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl until combined. Whisk together the milk, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl until well combined. Whisk the butter into the milk mixture then add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, whisking until smooth and well combined.
• Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Ladle about a 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Starting from the middle of the batter, pipe out a large swirl of the cinnamon swirl mixture with the outer most part of the swirl near the edge of the batter. Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to keep them evenly spaced apart, and repeat with the swirl. Cook until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more. Serve hot and swirl-side up, or transfer to a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed. Top with a drizzle of the icing before serving.

CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Tip all the ingredients for the dough, except the butter and golden syrup, into the bowl of a stand mixer with 1 tsp salt. Use a paddle attachment to combine everything until it begins to come together into a dough, then tip out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 2 mins. Put it back in the bowl and gradually add the softened butter, 1-2 tsp at a time, while mixing on a medium setting. Alternatively, knead the butter in by hand until smooth. Flatten the dough to a square roughly 20 x 20cm, then cover and freeze for 30 mins, or chill for at least 1 hr.
• Meanwhile, butter and line the base and sides of a deep baking tray, roughly 20 x 30cm. To make the filling, mix the sugar with the cinnamon and a large pinch of sea salt, then set aside 2 tbsp. Beat in the butter to form a thick paste.
• Lay the dough on a floured surface and roll to a neat rectangle roughly 35 x 25cm. Spread over the filling so it's completely covered. Fold the bottom third of the dough into the middle, then fold over again to cover the top third. For the best results, chill the dough again for another 30 mins.
• Re-roll the dough to another rectangle about 40 x 30cm, then roll it up along the long edge into a tight log. To get the neatest spirals, cut in half, lift onto a tray and freeze for 15 mins to firm up, then cut into 12 equal-sized slices. Arrange the slices, spiral side-up, in the tin. Leave to prove in fridge for at least 1 hr, or up to 24 hrs.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Bake the buns for 20 mins, then scatter over the reserved cinnamon sugar and bake for 10-15 mins until deep brown.
• Meanwhile, mix the golden syrup with 2 tsp boiling water. As soon as the buns come out of the oven, brush them with the syrup glaze, then leave to cool a little. To make the icing, beat the soft cheese, icing sugar and vanilla together, then gradually add 1-2 tbsp boiling water to create a thick but pourable consistency. Drizzle the icing over the buns.
