![]() Here are a few pictures of cinnamon rolls http://images.google.com/images?q=cinnamon+roll&hl=en to illustrate what I'm referring to. The thicker/higher ones are what I would refer to as cinnamon rolls, and the thinner/flatter ones I would refer to as cinnamon pastry. Of these on the first page, the one that most closely resembles the recipe I would like to make is 1130-cinnamon roll-danish and it is a little dryer inside. Does anyone have a recipe, maybe one that I would not have to layer the dough with butter like making a croissant, that might make something similar to the 1130-cinnamon roll-danish. I've googled, but found nothing with pictures; perhaps referring me to a recipe in a cookbook, that if I don't have, I can check out at the library. Thanks so much. Dee |

Hmmm: I suspected that, but for some reason, it had the texture more of a
brioche. Dee ... Some danish pastries are made by scotch methods where the chunks of fat are mixed in with the dough pieces and then sheeted, given a book turn, allowed to rest in the fridge to recover its extensibility anf firm up the fat ;then sheeted and given another book or either 3- fold /half turn and then allowed to rest again before finall its sheeted to the requred thickness where the desired filling is spread and then rolled in the swiss roll fashion, That technique can produce textures that range from brioche l to croissant similarity depending on the number of sheeting and turning as well as the skill of the baker. |

I think I'm going to have to read up more on croissant making. I really know nothing about it, having had a class once where we made croissants by a method similar to that you are describing above. I realized I never wanted to make croissants at that time as it was too labor intensive. And I've not eaten a lot of croissants during my lifetime as a result of that class some 25 years ago. I pass them up in the stores all the time for that reason as well as thinking I'd rather have something tastier for all those calories. But this cinnamon roll-pastry that I had - of all places, Starbucks several months ago (I don't drink Starbucks, don't get me started) - just has kept the thought of trying to make one like it, but I think it would probably take an experienced person to decide what made this particular pastry better than any other of its kind tastier to me. It's wishful thinking on my part and probably something I'll have to ask at the 'pearly gates.' I'd be willing to try, but it would be a struggle going thru every cinnamon roll-pastry recipe on the bookshelves. Much appreciation, Dee |

Dee I'm taking some baking lessons and one of the things we discussed was using brioche for cinnamon rolls and a few other things. It does work..I tried it... The gal teaching the classes is CIA trained and has her own bakery. She told me that either Nancy Silverton or someone else of that caliber (I can't remember) has several brioche dough pasteries..including cinnamon rolls in her cook book. Debra |

That looks close to the type of cinnamon roll *I'd* like to be able to make. It appears to be one of the yeast-raised type, but all the recipes I've tried to date fall into one of 2 categories, either the too-dry, not-very-yeasty, fluffy "supermarket" cinnamon roll (usually looking a bit like ICR01A, perhaps slightly flatter), or the absurdly sweet, greasy, heavy, WAAY-way overloaded "Cinnabon"-style roll (usually looking a bit like roll.jpg). At least from its appearance, the one I've singled out looks like it'd be what I'm looking for - a rather bready, moist roll with a slightly crisp crust, pronounced but not aggressive cinnamon flavour, and most importantly, not tooth-aching sweetness. The sweetness and the intensity of the cinnamon are nearly entirely attributable to the filling and topping. There is a limit to the amount of sugar you can add to yeast dough before it fails to perform, so it is unlikely that the dough is the sauce of too much sweetness unless your threshold for sweetness is very low. I use the recipe for sweet dough that is in the Kitchen Aid stand mixer cookbook. I roll that out, slather it with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and then with cinnamon. I don't measure the ingredients for the filling. You can control the texture of the crust by the length of baking, the sweetness by moderating the sugar in the filling, the intensity of the cinnamon by using it sparingly. I think much of the cloying sweetness of the Cinnamon product is from the mountain of frosting they slather on it. 3/4 cup milk 1/2 cup sugar 1 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 cup butter 2 pkgs. yeast 1/3 cup of warm water ( 105-115F) 3 eggs 5/12 to 6 1/2 cups AP flour Prepare dough as you would any other bread (I will list the instructions if you want, but I assume that you know how to make yeasted dough) and let rise until double. Deflate dough, roll out into rectangle approx. 14 x 20. Spread or brush on a thin coating of soft butter. Sprinkle with sugar or brown sugar and then with cinnamon. Roll, starting at long end. Cut into slices approx. 1 - 1.25 inches thick. Place on parchment lined baking sheet. Let rise until nearly double. Bake in preheated, 350F oven for 25-30 minutes. Let cool. Drizzle with glaze or frost as desired. I think this tends to fulfill your requirement of being yeasty, bread-like, and moist. The sweetness and spiciness is up to you. |

My choice actually falls between your 95 and my 1130 picture. The reason I chose 1130 is that it is thinner than the others, and 95 might be a little too high. Anyway, this is what I'm looking for a recipe. Since I ate that one months ago, I've had it on my mind. Here's the page link again. http://images.google.com/images?q=cinnamon+roll&hl=en Dee Dee |

Dear Vox, I am preparing my dough. Since it is such a big amount of dough, I'm wondering if you've frozen half your dough at any time. If you have, at what point have you frozen it. Here are the instructions from the sweet dough recipe - paraphrasing: "Place in a bowl and let rise about an hour." At this point after you take it out of the bowl, I guess is the point I could freeze the half batch of dough? Thanks so much. Dee |

I detest cinnamon buns due to the awful, cloying smells in just about every shopping mall! Therefore, I have just adapted your recipe and made maple-walnut buns instead. I've posted the results to yahoo http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group...ase.yahoo.com/ I reduced the sugar by 40g and substituted 40g of maple syrup instead. After rolling out and brushing with butter, I sprinkled 115g of coarse maple sugar and 100g chopped walnuts over the dough and rolled as instructed. After baking I brushed the tops with maple syrup. Next time, I'll replace all the sugar in the dough with maple syrup and adjust the flour accordingly. This is the first time I've ever made this type of roll/bun and I know now that it won't be the last! Again, thanks for the recipe. Graham |

I went by the recipe and sprinkled organic (light brown) sugar over butter. I sprinkled some half-way special cinnamon (from Penzy's). Mine won't all cling together because I'm going to try to make them more separate. I think I'll brush the tops with butter instead of, as you did, maple syrup. It's getting a little late here, so I think they'll be ready by 10 pm. Too late to put the coffee-pot on. I hope they will not stale-up before breakfast. I'm still wondering if these can be put in my food-saver, when I get it. Not these, of course, but the next ones I make. Dee Dee |

Next time I'm going to change this: Much less yeast, and I'll cut them 1" or less. I'll put more confectionery's icing on them, liquid: lime juice & vanilla and water. I baked them 20 minutes convection 325F. They were plenty brown. DH had two and I had one and put the rest in the freezer. I'll heat up a few Sunday a.m. with a steamin' cuppa. Dee Dee |

At this point after you take it out of the bowl, I guess is the point I could freeze the half batch of dough? Thanks so much. Dee I think you could freeze it either went it is just mixed (before the 1st rise) or after. With all the sugar and fat in the dough, I find it takes a good amount of time to rise, so I don't know how it would be out of the freezer. You would probably have to let it defrost in the refrigerator over night. If you don't want that much dough, half the recipe. I do this regularly and make it in the food processor. I put all the dry ingredients, including the instant yeast in the bowl and pulse it a few times. Then I add the eggs, water, and butter. While it is running , I add enough warm milk to make a proper dough. It is so quick that it is probably less fuss to make it fresh than to freeze. However, if I were to freeze the dough, I would just make up the rolls and freeze them. I would then take them out of the freezer and let them rise and then bake. That way, I would be able to make one or two at a time. This would be especially handy for weekend breakfasts/brunch. The night before I would put a couple rolls in the refrigerator and then remove them in the morning to finish rising. I have been known to put cold dough in the microwave at 30% power for a minute or so to quickly bring it to room temperature. You would have to experiment with you oven doing it in 30 second bursts until you get a feel for the amount of time required. I have a Seal-A-Meal which allows you to stop the vacuum and seal as needed. For delicate items I often abort the cycle before things are crushed. If I were freezing baked goods, I would put them on a tray, cover with film, and freeze solid for a few hours. Then, I would put the individually frozen items in the Foodsaver bags and vacuum pack them. I do this with raw cookie dough. I scoop out the dough, freeze solid, and then packages the portioned raw dough. Then I just remove as much dough as I want and bake as usual adding about 5 minutes to the baking time. That way I can mix a double or triple batch of dough and we can have fresh cookies at a moment's notice. Pre-freezing and then packaging is often the best solution for delicate items. |
