Secrets of Aromatic Cinnamon Yeast Baking

There are many successful baking recipes with cinnamon - you can make a dough with kefir, milk, or even take a ready-made store one.

The filling is also not limited to only one spice and sugar - apples are great, you can experiment and add a little dried fruit, a little cottage cheese.

Apples with cinnamon go well with poppy seeds - there is one such example.

It will turn out delicious if you add a handful of raisins or finely chopped dried apricots, crushed nuts to the apples, and add a teaspoon of cocoa powder to the dough.

You don't need to buy a lot of cocoa, a disposable sachet for a cup of drink is enough. Get creative with the dough. For example, divide the prepared ingredients in half, let the cocoa be in only one half. When both parts of the dough fit, roll them into cakes, place the filling on one, cover with the other, roll into a tight tube, cut the roll into rings and send to the oven.

To prevent the dough from sticking to the cutting board, dust it with flour. You can also roll out the cake directly on the table top.

Note to the hostess

  • Any buns made from yeast dough is a baking recipe that will only benefit from glazing. And it's not just about whipped yolks. Try to grease the buns, for example with thick fruit syrup or light jam, garnish with berries or pieces of fruit, candied fruits on top.
  • Easy to prepare chocolate icing... You will need half a packet of butter, half a glass of sugar, a little milk, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Mix all ingredients in a saucepan and boil with stirring over low heat. When the frosting is thick, pour over the finished buns.
  • Experienced housewives on culinary forums advise using not granulated sugar in such baked goods (it often flows out and burns), but powdered sugar.
  • And a little about dry yeast. These are dormant living organisms. You will wake them up by sending them to warm milk or water. The dissolved sugar will serve as food for the yeast. Warm the liquid a little, the temperature should not exceed + 35-40 ° C, otherwise your one-celled assistants will die in boiling water and the dough will not rise. Pre-mix the yeast with a spoonful of flour, cover the container with a napkin. Ten minutes later, under it, you will find a pasty mass with foam: the yeast is ready, add it to the flour and create the dough.
  • There is another type of dry yeast, they are called instant, instant. They do not require soaking, they "wake up" right in the dough. The packaging may have the word fast.
  • Pay attention to the expiration date, expired yeast "doesn't work".
