A breakfast treat!

Cinnamon Rolls!  I aplogozie in advance that this recipe is in metric.  My favorite cook is british!  I love Nigella Lawson and this is her verison of yumminess.

Ingredients

  • 400gr Flour
  • 25gr fresh Yeast
  • 200ml lukewarm Milk
  • 40g Sugar
  • 70g soft Butter
  • 1/4tsp Salt
  • 2tsp Cinammon
Topping:
  • 100g soft Butter
  • 70gr Sugar
  • 1Tbsp Cinammon

Method

  1. Put the flower into a bowl, crumble the yeast in, pour in some milk and mix up with the yeast. Cover it and rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Add the other ingredients for the dough and knead everything into a smooth dough. Cover and let it rise for at least 20 minutes (1 hour is better).
  3. Gently press dough down and, on a floured surface, roll into a roughly 30x70 cm rectangle. Mix the ingredients for the filling and spread evenly on the dough. Roll up from one long side, then cut your roll into 5cm long strips.
  4. Press down the the flat side of the knife in the middle of the rolls, so that the centre goes down and the cut sides open up a bit.
  5. Put rolls on a parchmented baking sheet and let them rise for another 10 minutes or so. Preheat the oven to 225C, eggwash the rolls and bake the rolls for ca. 12 minutes.
Serves: about 10 - 12 rolls

Everyone was thrilled with their treat this morning
