Yield Makes 14 buns

Number Of Ingredients 14

Dough:
1/2 cup lukewarm water (85°F to 95°F)
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk (85°F to 95°F)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 large eggs
5 1/2 cups (about) all-purpose flour
Streusel:
2 1/4 cups (packed) golden brown sugar
2 cups pecans, toasted, chopped (about 8 ounces)
4 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • For dough:
  • Stir 1/2 cup lukewarm water and yeast in large bowl to blend. Whisk in lukewarm milk, melted butter, sugar and salt, then eggs. Add enough flour, 1/2 cup at a time, to form smooth but very sticky dough, stirring vigorously with wood spoon. Butter large bowl. Transfer dough to bowl; turn to coat with butter. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight (do not punch down dough).
  • For streusel:
  • Mix brown sugar, pecans and cinnamon in 4-cup measuring cup. Stir in melted butter; set aside.
  • Butter 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Set aside 2 cups streusel; cover bottom of dish with remaining streusel. Turn dough out onto generously floured surface, scraping bowl with rubber spatula if dough sticks (do not punch down dough). Sprinkle dough lightly with flour. Roll out dough to 14-inch square. Sprinkle reserved 2 cups streusel over dough, leaving 3/4-inch plain border on all sides. Roll up jelly-roll style, enclosing streusel completely. Cut rolled dough crosswise in half, then cut each half crosswise into 7 rounds, each about 1 inch thick. Place rounds cut side down and evenly spaced atop streusel in dish (rounds will not cover streusel completely).
  • Cover dish loosely with plastic wrap. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until rounds are puffed and almost touching, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Bake buns 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Continue to bake buns until golden brown, about 20 minutes longer.
  • Immediately place large baking sheet atop dish with buns. Invert buns onto baking sheet. Cool at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 9 to 12 buns

Number Of Ingredients 23

5 cups bread flour, plus up to 1/2 cup more if needed
3/4 cup plain instant mashed potato flakes, pulsed fine in a food processor
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon instant yeast
2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 3/4 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, at room temperature, plus more for greasing the baking pan
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
Crumble, frozen, recipe follows
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 pound unsalted butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • For the dough: Whisk together the bread flour, mashed potato flakes, granulated sugar, cinnamon, yeast and salt in a large bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the milk, vanilla and eggs; whisk to break up the eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the dough just comes together.
  • Add the butter, one piece at a time, mixing until incorporated. Continue to mix until the dough comes together in a ball. If the dough is sticking a lot to the sides of the bowl, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until most of the dough no longer sticks. (A little sticking to the bottom of the bowl, beneath the hook, is fine. Adding too much flour will make the buns dry, so use a light hand.)
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand until shiny and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. (The dough should be very soft but not wet and sticky; a little tacky is OK.) Place the dough in a large bowl sprayed with nonstick spray; lightly spray the top of the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm corner of your kitchen until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
  • For the filling: Stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Roll the dough out into a long rectangle, about 10-by-21 inches. Brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, followed by 4 cups of frozen Crumble. Starting from a long side, roll the dough into a jelly roll.
  • Cut the log into 2-inch pieces and place, cut-side down, in a buttered 10-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle 1 cup of Crumble over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy and nearly doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the buns, loosely wrapped in foil, for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown on top, about 5 more minutes.
  • For the glaze: Meanwhile, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
  • While the buns are still warm (but not hot), drizzle with the glaze. Serve warm.
  • Combine the all-purpose flour, melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Stir together and then work with a spoon or your fingers until the butter is absorbed and the mixture forms clumps. Place in a resealable plastic bag and freeze until needed.

Categories     Breads

Time 2h20m

Yield 12 buns, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (1/4 ounce) package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
1/4 cup warm water (100 to 110 )
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup skim milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
cooking spray
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons chilled butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 tablespoon hot water
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To prepare the buns, dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Add 2 cups flour, pumpkin, and next 5 ingredients (pumpkin through nutmeg); beat with a mixer at medium speed until smooth.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes); add enough of the remaining 3/4 cup flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands (dough will feel tacky).
  • Place the dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for 45 minutes or until doubled in size. (Press two fingers into the dough. If an indentation remains, the dough has risen enough.).
  • Combine 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • Punch dough down; cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Roll the dough into a 12 x 10-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Sprinkle with brown sugar mixture. Roll up the rectangle tightly, starting with a long edge, pressing firmly to eliminate air pockets; pinch seam and ends to seal. Cut roll into 12 (1-inch) slices.
  • Place slices in a 9-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise 25 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Bake the rolls at 375° for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes in pan on a wire rack.
  • To prepare the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon water, and vanilla extract in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Drizzle glaze over buns. Serve warm.

Categories     Dessert

Time 5m

Yield 1 recipe

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until crumbly. Alternately, you can mash the ingredients together in a bowl using a fork, or just smoosh everything together with your fingers.
  • Sprinkle over muffins or coffee cake immediately before baking.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly affect the quality of your cinnamon streusel buns. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overwork the dough: When kneading the dough, be careful not to overwork it. Overworking the dough will make it tough and chewy.
  • Let the dough rise properly: The dough needs to rise twice before it is baked. The first rise is after it is kneaded, and the second rise is after it is shaped into buns. Make sure you give the dough enough time to rise both times.
  • Don't overbake the buns: The buns are done baking when they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking the buns will make them dry and crumbly.

These cinnamon streusel buns are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
