  • Preparation: 120 min
  • Cooking: 15 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (115 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, gluten

Ingredients

  • 50 g Flour, strong white
  • 28 g Milk, whole, lukewarm
  • 1.5 g Yeast, dried
  • 3 g Sugar
  • 6 g Butter, soft
  • 0.3 g Salt
  • 25 g Dark brown sugar
  • 1 g Cinnamon, ground

Method

  1. Stir the yeast and the white sugar into the lukewarm milk and leave for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Mix the flour and salt, add the yeasty milk and the butter, and knead for 10 minutes to a smooth, soft dough. Cover and leave to rise for 1 hour, until doubled.
  3. Mix the brown sugar with the cinnamon and spread most of it over the work surface.
  4. Roll the dough into a rope about 40 cm long, then roll it through the sugar until it is coated all over, pressing the sugar in.
  5. Coil the rope loosely into a spiral and tuck the end underneath. Scatter the rest of the sugar on a lined baking tray, set the bun on it and leave to rise for 40 minutes. Heat the oven to 200 °C.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until risen and the sugar underneath has melted into a dark, sticky syrup.
  7. Leave on the tray for 5 minutes so the syrup thickens, then lift off. Best eaten warm, on the day it is baked.
