Cinnamon Roll (Kanelbullar)

Yesterday Thursday 4th October is a Kanelbullar Dag in Sweden.

My son send me an sms at 7:30am while he was on his way to school in a train.
"Mom today is Kanelbullar Dag" (Cinnamon Roll Day)
So I asked him "How did you know?"
Replied, "It's in the newspaper"
There is a free newspaper everyday called Metro newspaper and they are distributed all over every train stations and bus stations here.
So I asked," Did you read it in Metro?"
Replied, "Yes I read it sometime"
So I told him that I will buy for him when he come home from school but thinking about it, why buy when i can do it myself and that boy would not feel that its enough with one bulle.


Rolls:
1 pkt dry Yeast
2 tbs Butter, melted
1 Cup Milk
¼ Teaspoon Salt
¼ Cup Sugar
3 Cups of Flour
1 tps Cardamom

Filling:
2 tbs Butter
3 tbs Sugar
1 tps Cinnamon

Topping:
1 Egg

Combine milk and butter.  Sprinkle the yeast over the milk and butter mixture. Stir until dissolved and let rest. Sift the flour, sugar, and salt and mixed until the dough is elastic and not sticky. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise for 30 to 40 minutes.

 While waiting for the flour to rise, you can prepare the butter and cinnamon spread.
When the dough has risen, knead for one minutes. Roll it into a rectangle. Spread the filling over the whole top.

I did one roll with Nutella spread

Once rolled cut them between 3 cm depending on how thick you prefer.

This is the next rolled I did with cinnamon and butter.

Usually you need a baking paper cup to lay each and everyone of them inside but since I do not have one at home, I just lay them on a tray with baking paper underneath.

Beat one egg and brush them lightly on top of the cinnamon roll and sprinkle pearl sugar.

This is the pearl sugar.

Baked them in the oven at 200 deg for 20 mins. Sometimes it can be faster so just keep checking them. Once it is brown like the picture below, you can take them out.

This is the Nutella chocolate roll.

This is cinnamon roll.
