Ingredients
FOR THE BOTTOM OF THE PAN
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter (softened)
FOR THE DOUGH
- 1 cup whole fat plain yogurt
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- 2½ cups all purpose flour *(1-2 tablespoons extra if dough is very sticky)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cold butter* (cubed or shredded)
*If using unsalted butter then add ½ teaspoon salt.
FILLING
- ¾ cup apple butter
MAPLE FROSTING
- ½ cup powdered/icing sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- ½ tablespoon milk (depending on how thick you like it)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F / 190C. Line a 9 inch (23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, then butter the paper and sprinkle the brown sugar on top. Set aside.
FOR THE DOUGH
- In a small bowl beat together the yogurt and egg.
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour,k sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the chopped or grated cold butter and combine until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the yogurt mixture to the flour mixture (if very sticky then add 1-2 tablespoons extra of flour, the dough should be slightly sticky) and mix with a fork or spatula to form a soft dough (do not over mix).
- Move to a lightly floured flat surface and pat into a large rectangle, then roll out with a floured rolling pin to an 11×8 inch (28x20cm) rectangle. Spread the top of the dough with the apple butter. Roll up from the long end, pinch the edges to seal the dough. Cut into 9 slices.
- Arrange the slices cut side down on the prepared pan. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, until golden or a toothpick comes out clean or with a couple of crumbs attached. Remove from the pan and let cool to warm on a wire rack, then spread with the frosting if desired and serve. Enjoy!
FOR THE FROSTING
- In a small bowl combine powdered sugar, vanilla and maple syrup if it is too thick add ½ tablespoon of milk, mix until smooth.
Notes
- Since this is no yeast dough it is important not to overmix the dough otherwise your rolls may turn out flat and dense.
- Apple butter is more concentrated and more spiced than apple sauce. It’s thick like butter and has a smooth texture.
- Store covered with foil or in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Warm individual rolls in the microwave until heated through.
- To freeze, it is best to freeze without the frosting, cool the cinnamon buns completely then wrap individual rolls in plastic wrap and store in a freezer safe bag. Thaw in the refrigerator and reheat to desired temp.
