Apple and cinnamon scrolls Recipe

Name: Apple and cinnamon scrolls
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 3/4 cup plain (all purpose) flour; 1 tbsp active dry yeast; 5 tsp baking powder; 2 tbsp white sugar; 1 large apple, peeled, cored and chopped fairly finely; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 50 grams butter or margarine, softened; 1/2 cup milk, warmed slightly; 1/2 cup natural yoghurt

Servings: persons

1
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
2
Make a well in the middle.
3
Combine all the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
4
Pour into dry ingredients and mix to combine into a soft dough.
5
Turn dough out onto a floured surface and kneed for about ten minutes.
6
Put dough into a greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth.
7
Leave in a warm place to prove for about an hour (until doubled in size).
8
Preheat oven to 200C Celsius.
9
Place filling ingredients in a small bowl and microwave on high for about 4 minutes.
10
Stir well to combine.
11
Roll dough into 40cm x 30cm rectangle.
12
Spread apple mixture over the dough.
13
Roll up along the long side and pinch dough along the seam to seal it.
14
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 9 pieces (I usually make 9 buns, the original recipe said 8 and you could probably make 12 smaller ones).
15
Place the buns into a greased baking dish/cake tin.
16
I use a 20cm x 20cm pyrex baking dish but anything along those lines should be fine.
17
Allow to rise for a further 20 minutes.
18
Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes until golden on top and cooked through.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
