Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan
2 cups whole milk, warm to the touch
½ cup granulated sugar
1 pack active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
¾ cup butter, softened
¾ cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Generously butter a 1-inch (2.5 cm) cast-iron skillet or cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (40˚C). If hotter, allow to cool slightly before proceeding.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the warm mixture and let sit for 1 minute. Add 4 cups of the flour to the milk mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, the dough should have nearly doubled in size. Remove the towel and add an additional ¾ cup (95 grams) of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a well-floured surface.
  • Knead the dough lightly, adding additional flour as necessary, until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface.
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½ inch (1.5 cm) thick. Fix corners to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, light brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Spread the filling mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, spreading right to the edges.
  • Using a pizza cutter, make 3 horizontal cuts to divide the dough into 4 long, evenly-sized strips. Starting from the top, roll the first strip up from right to left. Take the first roll and place it on top of the next strip, starting again on the right side and rolling up right to left, building on the first. Continue with the remaining strips until you have a giant cinnamon roll.
  • Place the giant cinnamon roll in the prepared skillet or cake pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot and leave to rise for 30 minutes. The cinnamon roll should expand to the edges of the pan during this time.
  • Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • Uncover the cinnamon roll and bake for 45 minutes. Cover the roll with foil to prevent the outside from burning, and bake for an additional 35 minutes.
  • While the cinnamon roll is baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, butter, milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Remove the cinnamon roll from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. Once cool, remove from the pan and drizzle the frosting over the roll before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Egg     Bread     Breakfast     Brunch     Bake

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups Dough - flour plus more for dusting
1/3 cup dough granulated sugar
1 tablespoon dough baking powder
1/2 teaspoon dough kosher salt
3/4 cup dough cold, unsalted butter (1 1/2 stick)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons filling butter
1/4 cup filling dark brown sugar
2 teaspoon filling ground cinnamon
1 cup glaze confectioners sugar
1 teaspoon glaze vanilla
2 tablespoons glaze whole milk

Steps:

  • line a baking sheet with parchment paper or baking mat
  • prepare the dough: in large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the cubed butter, then pinch and press the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse sant.
  • make a well in the center of the sandy mixture and add the heavy cream and vanilla. Toss and fold until it comes together to form a loose dough
  • dust your work surface with flour and turn the dough out onto it. gently knead the dough two ro three times to bring it together. Use your hands to press the dough into a 5 X 14 inch rectangle with a long side facing you. Imagine the dough divided vertically into three equal sections, like a standard sheet of paper folded to fit into an envelope. Carefully lift the section on the right anbd fold it over the center section. Lift the section on the left and fold it over the other two layers. When you look at your dough from the front, you should see three distinct layers. Turn the little dough package so that one of the folded edges is facing you.
  • Use your hands to press the layered dough back down into a long rectangle similar in size to the first one you made, flouring your work surface and dough as needed.
  • Make filling: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Drizzle filling on top of the dough and spread it our using a spoon or spatula to fully cover the top surface of the dough
  • cut the dough lengthwise into four equal strips. Pick up a strip and transfer it to the prepared baking sheet, filling -side up . roll it up tightly, then stand it up on one of its flat sides in the center of thge sheet. Pick up another strip, and wrap that strip, fill-side in, around the standing coil starting where the first coil left off. Repeat iwth remaining two strips. Gently push the circle of coiled dough down to adher the strips together and flatten the dough to about 9" in diameter. cover and chill for at least 30 minutes to overnight.
  • position a rack inthe center of the over and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the chilled roll into 8 wedges, leaving the cut pieces together in a circle instead of pulling them apart.
  • Bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until the scones have puffed and browned around the edges, 20-24 minutes.
  • transfer the sheet to a rack to cool for 20 - 30 minutes-before moving carefully moving the warm scones onto a cutting board or serving platter Using a knife, gently slice to separate the 8 individual scones, but don't pull them apart.
  • make the glaze: In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the confectioner's sugar and vanilla with milk until the glaze is spreadable. Drizzle it over the scones and serve.

Tips:

- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. - Make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces before adding it to the flour mixture. This will help create flaky layers in the scones. - Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the scones tough. - Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the scones hold their shape in the oven. - Bake the scones in a hot oven until they are golden brown. - Serve the scones warm with butter, jam, or your favorite topping.
