Cinnamon Swirls
1 tablespoon active dried yeast
2 tablespoons butter
125 mL milk
1 egg
225 grams strong bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter, softened
2 teaspoons cinnamon
50 grams brown sugar
50 grams sultanas or currants
On the stove or in the microwave melt the butter. Add the milk and heat until it is just warm. Whisk in the egg and then add the yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes, until the surface is frothy.
Weigh the flour, add the salt and mix it into the liquid gradually. Turn the dough out onto a clean, floured surface and knead gently for 5 to 10 minutes.
Place the dough back in the mixing bowl, cover and let rise until it is double in size.
While you wait for the dough to rise prepare the cinnamon filling by creaming together the second measure of butter, the cinnamon and the brown sugar.
Roll the dough into a rectangle, about 30 cm by 20 cm. Spread the dough with the cinnamon mixture and then sprinkle with the sultanas. Roll-up the dough into a long roll and cut into 12 slices. Arrange the slices in a greased or lined tin and allow to rise again.
Heat the oven to 190 degrees celsius. Bake the buns for 20 minutes. Let cool until warm, then spread with the below glaze and serve immediately.
1/2 cup icing sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 teaspoon butter
A pinch of cinnamon
1-2 tablespoons boiling water
Sift the icing sugar into a small bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir quickly until smooth. Spoon over the hot buns.
