Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 9 to 12 buns

Number Of Ingredients 23

5 cups bread flour, plus up to 1/2 cup more if needed
3/4 cup plain instant mashed potato flakes, pulsed fine in a food processor
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon instant yeast
2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 3/4 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces, at room temperature, plus more for greasing the baking pan
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
Crumble, frozen, recipe follows
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 pound unsalted butter, melted
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • For the dough: Whisk together the bread flour, mashed potato flakes, granulated sugar, cinnamon, yeast and salt in a large bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the milk, vanilla and eggs; whisk to break up the eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the dough just comes together.
  • Add the butter, one piece at a time, mixing until incorporated. Continue to mix until the dough comes together in a ball. If the dough is sticking a lot to the sides of the bowl, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until most of the dough no longer sticks. (A little sticking to the bottom of the bowl, beneath the hook, is fine. Adding too much flour will make the buns dry, so use a light hand.)
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand until shiny and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. (The dough should be very soft but not wet and sticky; a little tacky is OK.) Place the dough in a large bowl sprayed with nonstick spray; lightly spray the top of the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm corner of your kitchen until doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.
  • For the filling: Stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  • Roll the dough out into a long rectangle, about 10-by-21 inches. Brush with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, followed by 4 cups of frozen Crumble. Starting from a long side, roll the dough into a jelly roll.
  • Cut the log into 2-inch pieces and place, cut-side down, in a buttered 10-inch square baking pan. Sprinkle 1 cup of Crumble over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy and nearly doubled in volume, 30 to 45 minutes
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the buns, loosely wrapped in foil, for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until golden brown on top, about 5 more minutes.
  • For the glaze: Meanwhile, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla in a small bowl and stir until smooth.
  • While the buns are still warm (but not hot), drizzle with the glaze. Serve warm.
  • Combine the all-purpose flour, melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Stir together and then work with a spoon or your fingers until the butter is absorbed and the mixture forms clumps. Place in a resealable plastic bag and freeze until needed.

Yield Makes 14 buns

Number Of Ingredients 14

Dough:
1/2 cup lukewarm water (85°F to 95°F)
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk (85°F to 95°F)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 large eggs
5 1/2 cups (about) all-purpose flour
Streusel:
2 1/4 cups (packed) golden brown sugar
2 cups pecans, toasted, chopped (about 8 ounces)
4 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • For dough:
  • Stir 1/2 cup lukewarm water and yeast in large bowl to blend. Whisk in lukewarm milk, melted butter, sugar and salt, then eggs. Add enough flour, 1/2 cup at a time, to form smooth but very sticky dough, stirring vigorously with wood spoon. Butter large bowl. Transfer dough to bowl; turn to coat with butter. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight (do not punch down dough).
  • For streusel:
  • Mix brown sugar, pecans and cinnamon in 4-cup measuring cup. Stir in melted butter; set aside.
  • Butter 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Set aside 2 cups streusel; cover bottom of dish with remaining streusel. Turn dough out onto generously floured surface, scraping bowl with rubber spatula if dough sticks (do not punch down dough). Sprinkle dough lightly with flour. Roll out dough to 14-inch square. Sprinkle reserved 2 cups streusel over dough, leaving 3/4-inch plain border on all sides. Roll up jelly-roll style, enclosing streusel completely. Cut rolled dough crosswise in half, then cut each half crosswise into 7 rounds, each about 1 inch thick. Place rounds cut side down and evenly spaced atop streusel in dish (rounds will not cover streusel completely).
  • Cover dish loosely with plastic wrap. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until rounds are puffed and almost touching, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, position rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F. Bake buns 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Continue to bake buns until golden brown, about 20 minutes longer.
  • Immediately place large baking sheet atop dish with buns. Invert buns onto baking sheet. Cool at least 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided

  • Punch dough down; cover and let rest for 5 minutes.

  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps the buns to hold their shape and gives them a more flaky texture.
  • Don't Overproof the Dough: Overproofing can cause the buns to become too dense. Proof the dough until it is just doubled in size.
  • Bake the Buns Until Golden Brown: The buns are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Serve Warm: Cinnamon streusel buns are best served warm. You can reheat them in the microwave or oven if they have cooled down.

Cinnamon streusel buns are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
