In short: Learn to craft rich, brioche-like cinnamon rolls that are surprisingly simple to prepare. This guide emphasizes the importance of using a kitchen scale for precision, ensuring a consistent and delicious result every time you bake.

This recipe utilizes a forgiving dough that relies on metric measurements for accuracy, calling for 500g of all-purpose flour, 100g of softened butter, and 5g of instant yeast. The process begins by rehydrating the yeast in 250 mL of room-temperature water before incorporating it with the dry ingredients in a stand mixer.

After a 15-minute rest to hydrate the flour, the dough is kneaded for 10 minutes and left to rise for one hour. Once rolled to a quarter-inch thickness and filled with a mixture of melted butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar, the dough is shaped into 12 buns. These can be baked immediately at 320ºF (160ºC) for 20 to 25 minutes, or refrigerated overnight for convenience. The rolls are finished when they reach an internal temperature of 190ºF.
