Every year on October 4th we Swedes celebrate Cinnamon Bun Day. As you will see, in this special cinnamon bun post, I have baked many different types these last couple of years.
Time
That depends on the device you use and if you bake from scratch. But at least a couple of hours.
Ingredients
- 1 package of instant dough. Or google another recipe if you’d like to bake from scratch.
- Lots of butter
- Lots of sugar
- Lots of cinnamon
- Pearl sugar
Instructions
The preparations for all of the different sorts are the same. Just read the instant dough package when preparing the dough.
I prefer to buy those packages of instant dough because I think it’s boring to make a dough from scratch and it takes forever.
This is the heart of cinnamon buns. Cinnamon, sugar and butter.
The oven baked ones:
Most people now bake the buns in their oven and I’ve tried that as well. I burned them.
Oven baked ones.
It sure is boring to oven bake cinnamon buns so here’s some other, more fun, types.
The sandwich grill baked ones:
Place the buns into the sandwich grill. Press.
Butter up before.
Tadaa! Baking time: Just a couple of minutes. A great way to bake the buns!
The coffee maker baked ones:
I’ve baked three different types of cinnamon buns with my coffee maker…
1. The pizza sized model.
Shape it like a small pizza in size of the coffee maker heater. Place it onto the buttered coffee maker heater.
This is Zappa’s favorite. Baking time: 30 minutes.
2. The praline sized model.
Shape the like a small sized cinnamon bun. Place them onto the buttered coffee maker heater.
Cute, huh? Baking time: 20 minutes.
3. And of course the normal sized model.
Shape the like a normal sized cinnamon bun. Place them onto the buttered coffee maker heater.
Iggy was in charge of baking this one. Baking time: 30 minutes.
Now to my favorite way of baking cinnamon buns…
The hair cruncher baked ones:
I don’t know the English name of this device… Hair cruncher? Hair waffler? Place the bun between the waffled shaped arms. Press.
Baking time: A couple of minutes.
I just love the shape of them!
Do I even have to explain how lovely your hair will smell the next time you will waffle your hair? Way better than after making this recipe…
Which one is your favorite?
I like the small ones and the hairwaffled buns!
Wouldn’t it be like owenbaked if you bake them in (the bun-paper, alltså muffins-papper) in the coffee-pot with the lid on? Maybe som butter in the pot so it doesn’t burn.
Maybe something to try next year?
It’s called a crimping iron. :)
