Title: Cinnamon Raisin Buns.
Post by: achookwoman on April 27, 2015, 02:49:58 am: These buns from Woks of life Blog are lovely. They are not too sweet and are quite versatile with the small amount of filling. As I am pushed for time at the moment I will just print the adapted recipe. Please consult the original Blog for folding these buns. You could use the basic dough for coffee scrolls and similar. These ingredients made 13 buns , 10 cm across. I would make half next time and make 9 or 10 buns.
Ingredients

3/4 cup of thickened cream.
1 1/2 cups of warm milk, plus 1 dessert spoon
1 large egg or 2 very small ones.
40 to 60 g of sugar, depending on how sweet you like you buns
115g plain flour
830g of bread flour15g dry yeast.

30 g sugar mixed with 2 teaspoons od cinnamon.
2/3 cup of sultanas

1 large egg mixed with 1 dessert spoon I'd water, for wash

Simple syrup, 1 dessert spoon of boiling water mixed with 1 dessert spoon of sugar until dissolved.

Method.
Place all dough ingredients in TMX bowl and knead for 5 minutes.
Place in large bowl and allow to increase 1. 1/2 times.
Tip on to well floured bench and knead a few times .
Cut into desired number of pieces.
Form into buns and brush liberally with egg wash.
Bake aBout 15 minutes at 160
Brush with simple syrup.

Follow instructions for folding and twisting on Wok of Life Blog. This is essential to get the " look" .

Post by: Jamberie on April 27, 2015, 10:46:50 am: Oh yummo! Thanks Chookie, these look amazing. I've twisted dough in a similar way, it's really effective. I think these will keep me busy tomorrow :) Thanks for the tip to heat them in the AF too.

Jam, I think you could freeze them prior to baking. Just let them come to room temp before baking .

Post by: achookwoman on April 28, 2015, 02:47:40 am: Thermi lover, glad you like the look of them. The recipe as posted is a big effort for the TMX 5. Do give it a go though.
Title: Re: Cinnamon Raisin Buns.
Post by: MEP on April 29, 2015, 01:07:37 am: I have the ingredients so planning on giving the coconut buns a go tomorrow.

Post by: Jamberie on May 02, 2015, 01:06:47 pm: I made this today in my TM31, it was a big effort, but it seemed to do fine. They are absolutely delicious and I will certainly make them again. Next time I will add some finely diced or grated apple with the sultanas. No pic as they looked much like Chookies :)

Post by: cookie1 on May 03, 2015, 11:52:43 am: I can't wait to make these, but I think it will be after the holiday.
