Instructions
Topping (optional):
- Melted butter
- Brown sugar and cinnamon to taste
In a small bowl dissolve 1 tablespoon sugar with the yeast in a bit of water. Let it stand until bubbles, about 10-15 minutes.
In a large bowl combine the yeast mixture with the eggs, flour, melted butter, water and salt. Mix well, using a mixer or spoon until dough forms.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured, flat surface. Roll out into a rectangle. The size really depends on how large or small you want to make the buns.
Brush the flattened dough with melted butter and sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
Starting at the long side, tightly roll up the dough and brush with a bit of melted butter. You can sprinkle the buns with brown sugar if you like, or omit this if you want it less sweet. You can also sprinkle extra cinnamon on top if you want.
With a serrated knife cut the dough into 12 pieces.Place the buns, cut side down, in greased rectangular baking pan.
Cover and let rise for one hour or until it doubles in volume. Keep in a warm place (like above your stove) to help with rising.
Pre-heat oven to 375F degrees and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy!
