Cinnamon Buns Today!

Dry Ingredients

Floradora weighed the flour and spices…

.

.

Stir Them Up

…stirred them up with the sugar, to which was added the warm water, butter, milk and yeast.

.

.

Egg Wash

The Hittys usually stay out of the way while the human’s hands are sticky…but she enjoyed painting the resulting rolls with egg wash…

.

.

Pearl Sugar

…and reaching into the Pearl Sugar…

.

.

Fling

…and flinging it on artistically!

.

.

Sweet Beauty

The end result was not conventionally beautiful as it oozed all over the little frying pan and part way out…

.

.

YUM

But hey…they taste pretty good – actually the Hittys favourite photographer said they taste better than any Cinnamon Bun he has ever purchased! Happy Cinnamon Bun Day!!

This is a celebration beloved of the Quimper Hittys, and also marked annually in Sweden and parts of Finland!

  1. Thanks for sharing SWEET JOY today. Do you freeze the extra for later enjoyment? You had a lovely array of yeasty, sweet breads ~ a la Floradora’s happy helping hands. Becky J

    • We like this recipe a lot – not too overly sticky or sweet…it is one of our favourites too, people keep saying I shouldn’t feel restricted to making them only on October 4th!
