Ingredients

  • 1½ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • ¼ cup milk (I used 2%) (lukewarm -105-115F / 40-46C)
  • 2¼ cups +2 tablespoons bread flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup butter (soft)
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
FOR THE FILLING
  • 1 Easy Caramelized Apple Recipe
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
  • ¼ cup cream cheese
  • 1½ tablespoons butter (softened)
  • 1 cup icing/powdered sugar
  • ¼-½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small bowl add the milk, sprinkle the yeast on top and let sit for 10 minutes, then stir together.
  2. In the stand up mixer whisk together the flour, salt and sugar, cut in the butter to form coarse crumbs, then add the egg and yeast mixture.
  3. Knead with the dough hook for 7-8 minutes on speed #2 or until a smooth dough forms.
  4. Place the dough in lightly oiled bowl, turning the dough to lightly cover the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night approximately 8-10 hours, (or see notes on making it the same day).
  5. Remove the dough from the fridge, let sit 1 hour, then move it to a lightly floured flat surface and punch down, roll out to a 16x10 inches (40x26cm) rectangle, spread with the caramel apple mixture, leaving a ½ inch (1 cm) boarder around the rectangle. Roll up lengthwise and cut into 10 1 inch (2½ cm) slices, place them cut side up in a lightly greased and floured 8 inch cake pan. Cover and place in a warm draft free area, let rise for 1 hour or until doubled.
  6. Pre-heat the oven to 350F (180C).
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden, the internal temperature should be 190F (88 C). Let cool completely before spreading with frosting or eat warm. Enjoy!
CARAMEL APPLE FILLING
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl beat together the cream cheese, butter, icing sugar, vanilla and maple syrup. If the frosting is too thick add more maple syrup or milk if too thin then more icing sugar.

Notes

  • For room temperature ingredients, remove from the fridge 45-60 minutes before using.
  • These can also be made in one day, instead of refrigerating let rise in a warm draft free area for 2 hours or until doubled, punch down, then roll out, fill, roll up again, slice and place in the prepared cake pan, cover and let rise 1 hour.
  • Store the baked buns covered or in an air tight container at room temperature for up to two days. Or, you can keep them in the refrigerator for up to four days, warm them up in a microwave or low oven.
  • The cooled baked (unfrosted) rolls can be frozen in a freezer safe container for up to 2-3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge. Warm them in the microwave or low oven before serving.
