Cinnamon rolls

This morning I made cinnamon rolls for hubby :) Check out the photos and recipe... no special equipment needed, very quick and easy masha'Allah.

Take 50g caster sugar and 2 tsp ground cinnamon, mix together in a small bowl
Roll out 250g ready made puff pastry to an 8 inch square, sprinkle half of the sugar mixture over the square
Roll out the pastry to press in the sugar, making a 10 inch square. Brush with a beaten egg and sprinkle the rest of the sugar mixture over the area.
Loosely roll the pastry into a log, use the egg to secure the edge in place. Using a sharp knife cut the log into small sections
Place onto a greased baking sheet and place in a preheated oven at 220 degrees Celsius for about ten minutes, until golden and crisp
ENJOY :) Iftar isn't for another five hours, so I'll let you know how they are then ;)

  3. A'salaamu alaikum sis. Those look yummy! I can't make yeast dough so I think I need to take a closer look at puff pastry. :-)

    Ma salaama...

    Anon 220C is approx 430F according to http://www.metric-conversions.org/temperature/celsius-to-fahrenheit.htm
    I mentioned all the ingredients you need (a beaten egg, pre made puff pastry, sugar and cinnamon powder) also grams to cups see this conversion chart that I also found through google http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/cooking-conversions/gram-conversions.aspx

    Enjoy and do send your blog address so we can check out your results insha'Allah
