I almost gave up. The dough didn’t seem to rise as much as I expected it to be. I kept the dough for almost 24 hours in the fridge and it didn’t seems to improve and it was too
getting too late to bake anyway. Need to nurse Rico too. But before I chuck them into the bin, I took a small piece and baked it in the bread toaster, just to see what happens. The dough, believe it or not, rised and was quite fluffy. So, what the heck, I’ll just sprinkle cinnamon and butter and bake them anyway. Whoa la ……. I got a batch of beautiful cinnamon buns! Taste fantastic. Who need the overly sweet ones from Cinnabon anymore?
Ingredients
2 cups of milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
1 sachet of dry active yeast
4 1/2 cups of flour
Cinnamon powder + sugar for dusting
Melted butter
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 tablespoon salt
Verdict : Heavenly when fresh from the oven. Bun is soft even after a day. What can be better than a warm bun with a cup of coffee. Hmmm ………….
Yummy! Yummy! Yummy! Just needs a bit more sugar. But why stop there? Add some variety. Instead of cinnamon, spread grated sharp cheese. Hmmm…..
