SundayBrunch… Make your own Cinnabon..

I’m such a  cheap scag.. you guys know that by now.. BUT nowadays every penny needs to be accounted and turned around twice..so my kids love cinnabon but I’m just too cheap to spend $3 or even more on a can that only feeds one of my kids, so I usually need 2 maybe 3 cans and that is just too expensive… So I make my own, they are soo simple…

You Need for the Dough:

You need for the filling:

HOW TO:

1.      Mix the Flour and the yeast, add the eggs, butter, sugar, salt, vanilla extract and the warm milk.

2.     Mix with dough hooks to a dough, mix till the dough comes off the side of the bowl and forms into a ball, if it is too wet add a little extra flour, if it is too dry add a little extra milk

3.     Cover the bowl with a towel and sit aside for 30-40 in a warm room, so the dough can rest and double in size…

4.     while the dough is resting mix the pudding according to the instructions, I like to use the cooked variety but I think the instant should work, too

5.    If you are using fresh fruit or Nuts for your rolls, wash the fruit and/or cut the nuts in small pieces.

6.   Once the dough is doubled in size, add a little bit of flour to your hands and work station and roll the dough out

7.   Add the pudding filling to the dough and add your raisins, nuts or whatever you like to add

8.   Roll up the dough into a roll…

9.   Use a sharp knife and cut the roll into slices.

10.  Put on a cookie sheet and let rest for another 30 min…

11. Put in a pre-heated oven  350F for 15 min ( keep an eye on them the first time, every oven varies)

12. Done.. Yummy… you can eat them like that or take some confection sugar and a little bit of lemon and mix and drizzle as icing over the buns….

This is how we make Cinnabon Rolls in Germany… was a recipe out of my German cookbook…

I hope you enjoyed it:-)

SOO yummy.. I know it’s a bit of work.. BUT soo worth it 🙂
