Ingredients

• 500 g All-purpose flour
• 250 ml Milk
• 7 g Dry yeast
• 60 g Sugar
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pc Egg
• 75 g Butter
• 60 g Soft butter for the filling
• 80 g Brown sugar
• 2 tbsp Cinnamon
• 80 g Powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp Milk for the glaze

Method

1. Warm the milk slightly, only lukewarm, and dissolve the dry yeast in it.
2. Mix flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl, add the egg, the yeast milk and the melted, cooled butter, and knead into a smooth dough.
3. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes, until its volume has doubled.
4. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to a size of about 35 x 30 cm.
5. Spread the soft butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon over it.
6. Roll the dough up tightly from the long side and cut it into about 12 even slices.
7. Place the rolls with some space between them in a baking dish lined with baking paper, cover and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
8. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees, top and bottom heat, and bake the rolls for about 18 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
9. Stir the powdered sugar with the milk to a smooth glaze, brush the still warm rolls with it and serve lukewarm.
