Does He Bake Dough

GIANT CINNAMON ROLL 🎂

Because 12 cinnamon rolls are good. But one absolutely massive bastard is better.

DOUGH
500g strong white bread flour
7g dried yeast
60g caster sugar
8g salt
2 eggs
200g whole milk
100g unsalted butter, softened

FILLING
180g unsalted butter, softened
220g dark brown sugar
25g cinnamon
Pinch of salt

CREAM CHEESE TOPPING
150g cream cheese
75g unsalted butter
180g icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Pinch of salt
Splash of milk/cream

METHOD

1. Mix flour, yeast, sugar, salt, eggs + milk. Knead 7-8 mins.
2. Slowly mix in the butter until smooth, glossy + stretchy (you can knead it in but good luck)
3. Cover and prove until doubled.
4. Roll into a large rectangle.
5. Mix the filling and spread it generously across the dough.
6. Cut lengthways into long strips.
7. Roll the first strip into a cinnamon roll, then wrap each remaining strip around it to build one GIANT roll.
8. Place in a greased cake tin, cover + prove until big, soft and puffy.
9. Bake at 175°C fan for 30–40 mins until deeply golden and cooked through.
10. Beat the topping together and absolutely smother it while the roll is still slightly warm.

Enjoy
