Today was Swedish cinnamon bun day and as per tradition I spent most of yesterday baking these delicious cardamom and cinnamon buns for all my customers and family to enjoy today.
Nearly 250 cinnamon buns baked... Phew!
That's 5 batches of dough, waiting for them to prove, rise, dough rolled out, cinnamon filling added, dough rolled up, cut into slices, proved again and then baked... one batch takes about 1.5 hours from start to finish so that's quite a few hours baking. But I do love baking cinnamon buns as I love the science and watching the gluten structure build is just magical.
My cinnamon buns are certainly homemade as they come in all shapes and sizes but hopefully still equally enjoyed, whether you ordered traditional Swedish cinnamon buns or the more English version loaded with icing on top.
Thank you again to everyone who ordered from n me this year. Same time next year? 😉
