Categories     Cinnamon Rolls

Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup (240ml) whole milk*
2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar
1 and 1/2 tablespoons (14g) Platinum Yeast from Red Star instant yeast (2 standard size packets)*
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature and cut into 4 pieces
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 and 1/2 cups (563g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled), plus more for dusting/rolling
6 Tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup (100g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1 and 1/2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 cups chopped apples (peel if you'd like, about 2 medium apples)
1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons milk
2 Tablespoons warmed salted caramel

Steps:

  • Heat milk to about 95°F (35°C)- use microwave or stovetop. Pour the warm milk into the bowl of a stand electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment (OR you can use a handheld mixer OR no mixer, but a stand mixer is ideal). With a whisk, manually whisk in the sugar and yeast. Cover with a towel and let sit until the yeast is foamy, about 5-10 minutes. If the yeast does not dissolve and foam, start over with fresh active yeast. On low speed, beat in the softened butter until it is slightly broken up. Next add the eggs, one at a time, and then the salt. The butter won't really be mixing into the mixture, so don't be alarmed if it stays in pieces. On low speed, gradually add the flour. Once it is all added, beat on medium speed until a soft dough forms. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until the dough is soft and supple, about 6 minutes longer. *If you do not have a stand-mixer with a hook attachment, knead the dough by hand in this step.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it with your hands for 1 minute. Form the dough into a ball and transfer it to a lightly greased bowl. Cover the dough loosely with plastic wrap, a paper towel, or aluminum foil and let sit in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 to 2 hours. Here's what I do: turn the oven on to 200°F (93°C). Once heated to that temperature, turn the oven off. Stick the covered dough inside the oven and allow it to rise in this warm environment.
  • Grease the bottom and sides of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Turn the risen dough out onto a lightly floured work surface, punch it down and, using a rolling pin, roll into a 12×18 inch rectangle. Make sure the dough is smooth and evenly thick.
  • Spread the softened butter all over the dough. In a small bowl, toss the brown sugar and cinnamon together until combined and then sprinkle evenly over the dough. Top evenly with chopped apples. Tightly roll up the dough to form an 18-inch-long log. Cut into 12 equal rolls. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan. Cover the rolls very tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Allow rolls to rise in a warm environment again for about 45-60 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (191°C). Bake rolls for about 25 minutes until they are golden brown. About halfway through the bake time, I like to cover the rolls loosely with aluminum foil so the tops don't brown too much. Remove pan from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
  • Whisk all of the icing ingredients together and drizzle over warm rolls. Serve warm. Cover leftover frosted or unfrosted rolls tightly and store for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

Categories     Cake     Mixer     Egg     Breakfast     Brunch     Dessert     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Raisin     Apple     Chill     Cinnamon     Gourmet     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 19

For the filling
1 Granny Smith apple
1 McIntosh apple
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup raisins
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons dark rum
1 cup well-chilled heavy cream
1 teaspoon cinnamon
For the cake
5 large eggs, separated, the whites at room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
confectioners' sugar for dusting the towel

Steps:

  • Make the filling:
  • In a saucepan combine the apples, peeled, cored, and chopped fine, the brown sugar, the butter, and 3/4 cup water, simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the apples are tender, and stir in the raisins. In a small bowl dissolve the cornstarch in 1/4 cup cold water, add the mixture to the apple mixture, and boil the mixture for 1 minute. Stir in the rum, boil the filling for 1 minute, and let it cool. The filling may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
  • Make the cake:
  • Line the bottom of a buttered jelly-roll pan, 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1-inches, with wax paper, butter the paper, and dust it with flour, knocking out the excess. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the yolks, the granulated sugar, and the vanilla until the mixture is thick and pale and forms a ribbon when the beaters are lifted. In another bowl with the beaters, cleaned, beat the whites with the salt until they just hold stiff peaks, stir one third of them into the yolk mixture, and fold in the remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Sift the cornstarch, the flour, and the cinnamon over the egg mixture, fold the mixture in until the batter is just combined, and spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake the cake in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the top is golden and a tester comes out clean. Dust a kitchen towel generously with the confectioners' sugar, invert the cake onto it, and peel off the wax paper carefully. Roll up the cake gently in the towel, starting with a long side, and let it cool completely on a rack.
  • Assemble the roulade:
  • Unroll the cake, spread it with the filling. Leaving a 1-inch border on the long sides, and reroll it gently. Transfer the_roulade_, seam side down, to a platter and trim the ends diagonally. In a bowl beat the cream until it holds soft peaks, sift the cinnamon over it, and beat the mixture until it holds stiff peaks. Transfer the cinnamon cream to a pastry bag fitted with a decorative tip and pipe it decoratively onto and around the_roulade_.

APPLE, RAISIN & CINNAMON CLANGER



Apple, raisin & cinnamon clanger image

Try something different for dessert with this clanger - it's like a giant steamed pudding or stuffed roly-poly. Here, ours is filled with spiced apples

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

350g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
25g golden caster sugar
150g shredded vegetable or beef suet
2 eggs
custard, to serve
500g apples, peeled, cored and coarsely grated
1 tsp ground cinnamon
25g butter, melted
100g sultanas or raisins
50g demerara sugar, plus extra for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Mix the flour, sugar, suet and ½ tsp salt together in a bowl. Crack in one egg and slowly add 150ml ice-cold water, stirring to make a pliable dough. Knead briefly to bring together, then wrap and leave to rest while you make the filling.
  • Tip the grated apples into a bowl, then stir in the cinnamon, melted butter, sultanas and sugar until well-combined. Set aside (don't worry if it starts to turn brown).
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the pastry out on a floured surface to a 30 x 25cm rectangle, with a long side closest to you. Spoon the apple filling along the long side, leaving a 2cm border from the edge. Beat the second egg and brush some of this over the exposed pastry edge, then fold the edge over to encase the filling. Roll the pastry up into a tight roll, then put the kettle on to boil.
  • Wrap the whole roll in a large piece of baking parchment and twist the ends like a Christmas cracker. Twist again to tighten, then secure the ends with kitchen string. Put on a wire rack inside a large roasting tin, pour in 1 litre of freshly boiled water from the kettle and sit the clanger on the rack. Cover the whole tin tightly in a tent of foil, then transfer to the oven and bake for 1 hr.
  • Once the clanger is steamed, carefully remove from the tin. Will keep chilled for up to a day. Unwrap the clanger, transfer to a baking tray, brush all over with more of the beaten egg, scatter liberally with more demerara sugar and bake for 20 mins more until deep golden. Serve with custard.

HEAVENLY CINNAMON ROLLS



Heavenly Cinnamon Rolls image

A great substitute for those heavy, buttery cinnamon roll recipes. This one will blow you away. Just remember that the dough before the first rising may be a bit sticky, but not adding any more flour at this point guarantees a fluffy masterpiece.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes

Time 2h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup white sugar, divided
2 ½ teaspoons dry yeast
¾ cup warm water
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 eggs
¾ cup applesauce
½ teaspoon salt
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons honey
½ cup raisins

Steps:

  • Stir 1 tablespoon of the sugar and the yeast into the warm water in a small bowl. The water should be no more than 100 degrees F (40 degrees C). Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. Whisk together the cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Beat together the eggs, applesauce, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the yeast mixture. Beat in half of the flour mixture until no dry spots remain. Stir in the remaining flour, a 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition to form a sticky dough. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until fairly smooth but still sticky, about 8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large bowl, then place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) for 30 minutes. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 16x20 inch rectangle. Spread the honey over the dough; sprinkle evenly with the cinnamon sugar and raisins. Beginning with the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log shape, and pinch to seal the seam. Cut into 12 equal size pieces. Place the rolls into the prepared pan cut side up. Cover the pan with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes.
