Instant Cinnamon Buns
Ingredients
FOR CINNAMON BUNS YOU WILL NEED:
2 ½ cups AP flour
¼ cup sugar
1½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup whole milk
3 tablespoons margarine (melted)
FOR FILLING YOU WILL NEED:
2 tablespoons margarine (melted)
½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
FOR ORANGE GLAZE YOU WILL NEED:
½ cup confectioners’ sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Approximately 5 tablespoons of whole milk
2 tablespoons orange zest
(This recipe will make a light glaze. Double the sugar content if you desire a thicker glaze)
Preparation
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
Line a square baking dish and set aside.
3
Combine all ingredients for cinnamon buns into the bowl of your stand mixer. Roll out on a well-floured, surface. Roll out into a 10 x 5 inch rectangle.
4
Melt margarine for the filling and combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, spread the melted margarine over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon filling all over the dough.
5
Gently roll the dough. Slice log, should make about 6 rolls. (I’m probably the only person in the world who would get an uneven amount…but hey, I’m not complaining ;))
6
Place the rolls into the prepared baking dish and lightly brush each roll with the remaining margarine.
7
Bake for about 15 minutes.
8
Immediately remove the rolls from the pan and transfer to a dish.
9
Combine all ingredients for orange glaze and drizzle over the buns. Best if served warm with a cup of coffee ;)
