Easy Cinnamon Roll

Zutaten
  

For the yeast dough:
  • 500 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet of dry yeast (or 21g fresh yeast)
  • 60 g sugar
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 250 ml lukewarm milk
  • 75 g soft butter
  • 1 egg
For the filling:
  • 75 g soft butter
  • 80 g brown sugar
  • 2-3 tsp ground cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Yeast Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, dry yeast, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add the lukewarm milk, soft butter, and egg. Knead everything thoroughly—either with a kitchen machine or your hands—until you get a smooth, elastic dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 to 60 minutes until it has doubled in size.
  2. Roll Out the Dough:Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured surface or a clean woodencountertop. Roll it out into a neat, even rectangular sheet.
  3. Addthe Filling:Stir together the soft butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until it forms aspreadable paste. Spread this mixture evenly across the entire rolled-outdough, making sure it reaches the edges for maximum flavor in every bite.
  4. Rolland Slice:Roll the dough up snugly into a long log. Cut the log into individual roundslices. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchmentpaper or place them close together in a baking dish.
  5. Baketo Golden Perfection:Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) conventional heat. Bake the rolls for about20 to 25 minutes until they are lightly golden and cooked through. Let themcool slightly before digging in!
