| UBC Cinnamon Buns Recipe by : UBC (University of British
Columbia)
Ingredients :
3 cups milk
6 T. margarine
6 T. sugar
1 T. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 cup warm water
2 envelopes active dry yeast
2 large eggs
9 cups all-purpose flour
Filling:
1 cup melted margarine, divided
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 T. cinnamon
Instructions :
Scald milk. Stir in margarine, the 6 T. sugar, and salt. Cool to lukewarm. Dissolve 1 tsp.
sugar in warm water. Sprinkle yeast over water mixture. Let stand in a warm place for 10
minutes. In large mixing bowl combine lukewarm milk mixture and eggs. Stir in dissolved
yeast. Add 4-5 cups of the flour and beat well for 10 minutes. With a wooden spoon,
gradually add enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly
floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, adding additional flour as needed.
Place in well greased bowl and roll over to grease the top. Cover with a damp cloth and
let rise in a warm place until dough doubles in size, about one hour. Punch down and turn
out on lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. To fill, roll out each piece of
dough into a 9 X 18 inch rectangle. Sprinkle on filling (made from melted margarine, sugar
and cinnamon - but keep some of the margarine aside). Roll dough up like a jelly roll,
starting from the long side. Cut into 2 inch slices. Place remaining melted margarine in
bottom of 16.5 X 11.5 X 2.5 inch pan. Arrange slices in pan and cover loosely with greased
waxed paper. Let rise in pan until double in size, about 45 to 60 minutes. Bake in 350
degree oven for 30-40 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately invert onto serving try.
Makes 18 large cinnamon buns.
NOTE: These cinnamon buns are very popular at the UBC (University of British Columbia)
cafeteria. They were first made in 1954 by a Hungarian baker named Grace Hasz. The bake
shop produces 120 dozen buns every day!
