CINNAMON ROLLS WITH CARAMEL AND WALNUTS TOPPING



Cinnamon Rolls With Caramel and Walnuts Topping image

Maybe it scares you the title but actually it's pretty easy to do and the resultÂ... it's very yummy!! To tell you the truth I started this recipe a night before. I prepared the dough and it stayed in the fridge the whole night! The next morning I just put in the cinnamon filling and let the rolls rest for another 30 minutes then it goes for baking into the oven.

Time 4h30m

Yield 1 roll, 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 cup lukewarm water
1 tablespoon dried yeast
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 milk
1/4 butter
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
3 cups cake flour
3/4 brown sugar
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup walnuts
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup cream
1 cup walnuts

Steps:

  • We start with the dough. Dissolve 1 ts of sugar in a ½ cup of lukewarm water. Add 1 tbs of dried yeast, mix and let it rest for 10 minutes at room temperature. After the 10 minutes it should rise and make bubbles.
  • While the mix of sugar, yeast and water is resting, pour into a pot ¼ cup sugar, ½ cup milk, ¼ cup butter. Put it on a low-medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the vanilla extract and let it cool down.
  • In a large bowl beat the 2 eggs with 1 ts of salt until they become foamy. Add the lukewarm mix of milk, sugar and butter. Continue mixing then add the yeast.
  • Add 2 cups of flour and continue mixing at low speed until the flour is incorporated.
  • Add the rest of the flour bit by bit, until the dough is not too sticky.
  • Sprinkle some flour on your table and knead for about 10 minutes. Keep sprinkling flour if the dough is still sticky.
  • Grease with butter a clean bowl, grease the dough with butter too and wrap in plastic film. Let it rest for at least one hour and a half in a warm place. If you prepare the dough a night before, put it in the fridge like I did.
  • Preheat the oven at 180°C Grease a tray pan with butter and lining it with parchment paper.
  • For the topping, caramelize the sugar in a pan. Careful not to burn it. When it takes a beautiful amber color add the boiling cream and stir well until all the caramelized sugar dissolves into the cream forming a nice caramel cream. Add the walnuts and spread the topping into the tray.
  • For the filling just mix together all the ingredients.
  • Using a rolling pin spread the dough into a 40 cm/30 cm sheet. Spread the filling over the dough equally and start rolling. Be sure to roll the dough pretty tight. With a sharp knife cut the rolls about 6 cm wide.
  • Place the rolls into the baking tray over the caramel topping and be sure to let enough space between because they will rise more.
  • Cover the tray with a damp cloth and let it rest for another 30 minutes in a warm place.
  • Bake the rolls for about 30-35 minutes (depending on your oven). Be sure to check after 25 minutes. When catch a nice golden-brown color it's time to get them out of the oven.
  • Let it rest for 2-3 minutes ( do not wait more because the caramel topping becomes hard and you won't be able to get your cinnamon rolls out). Place a large plate on top of the tray and flip it. The caramel topping it's on top now!
  • Enjoy!

CARAMEL CINNAMON ROLLS



Caramel Cinnamon Rolls image

Time 3h30m

Yield 24 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup milk
1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 large eggs
7 cups all-purpose flour,
plus more for dusting
Vegetable oil, for brushing
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups packed dark brown sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Warm the milk in a small saucepan until steaming. Dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water. Combine the milk, shortening, granulated sugar, salt and eggs in a large bowl with a wooden spoon. Add the yeast mixture and mix until combined. Stir in the flour to form a soft dough. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the caramel: Combine the brown sugar, corn syrup and butter in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil; cook until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the heavy cream; whisk until combined and slightly cooled. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet; spread the caramel on the baking sheet and let cool completely.
  • Make the filling: Mix the brown sugar, melted butter and cinnamon in a bowl. Punch down the dough and roll out into a 12-by-24-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the filling on the dough and roll up, starting at a long side. Cut into 1-inch pieces and arrange cut-side up on the caramel. Cover loosely and let sit at room temperature until puffed, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Uncover the rolls and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. (Put a baking sheet on the lower oven rack to catch any drips.) Let cool slightly on the baking sheet, then invert onto a large cutting board or platter.

Tips:

  • To ensure your cinnamon rolls turn out perfectly, make sure your yeast is active and bubbly before using it. To test this, combine the yeast, warm water, and a pinch of sugar in a small bowl and let it sit for about 5 minutes. If the mixture becomes foamy, your yeast is active and ready to use.
  • To achieve a soft and fluffy texture, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour, which gives the rolls their structure.
  • When rolling out the dough, make sure it is not too thick or too thin. Aim for a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
  • Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the dough, making sure to cover the entire surface. This will ensure that each bite of your cinnamon rolls is bursting with flavor.
  • To make sure the caramel sauce is smooth and creamy, whisk it constantly while cooking. If you notice any lumps, remove the sauce from the heat and whisk vigorously until they disappear.
  • When adding the walnuts to the caramel sauce, make sure they are toasted for a richer flavor. To toast the walnuts, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes, or until they are fragrant and golden brown.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon rolls with caramel and walnuts topping are a delicious and indulgent treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their soft and fluffy texture, sweet and gooey filling, and crunchy walnut topping, these rolls are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're in the mood for a special breakfast or dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
