Cinnamon rolls recipe

If you're a fan of simple and quick desserts of puff pastry, then this is the right thing for you. Pretty simple, sweet yeast dough with an enriched aroma of cinnamon and cardamom with a little touch of orange. I always use cardamom seeds in recipes. If you do not have seeds or ground cardamom they can be omitted in the recipe. Maybe someone will find the amount of the sugar too high, but combined with spices and dough nothing in this recipe is too predominating, but a number of ingredients for stuffing can always be customized to suit your taste.

Ingredients:

• 200 ml milk
• 50 g butter, melted
• 400 g white flour
• 40 g fresh yeast (1 cube)
• 50 g sugar
• 1 packet of vanilla sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 egg

Filling:

• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 6 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
• Grated rind of 1 orange

Preparation:

1. In a pot heat the milk, add 1 teaspoon of sugar, a little flour and crumbled cube of yeast, cover and leave it aside.
2. In a bowl sift the flour, add the remaining sugar, salt, vanilla sugar, and the melted butter; add lightly scrambled egg and the prepared yeast. Knead smooth but not too soft dough. Cover with a cloth and put it in a warm place to rise until it doubles in volume.
3. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 175°C.
4. In another bowl mix sugar, cinnamon, and grated orange.
5. Knead again the dough on lightly floured work surface and roll it out to get a thickness of 5 mm. Coat the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with a mixture of sugar and spice. Tightly roll the dough starting with its long side.
6. Cut the dough into 1 cm thick slices and arrange them on the prepared sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and leave it in a warm place to rise for about 30 minutes. Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until the rolls are lightly golden brown.

Enjoy!
