Ingredients

Servings: 9
  • 125 g Potatoes
  • 60 g soft + some + 60 g butter
  • 1 big egg (Gr. L)
  • 1⁄8 l + 2 tablespoons milk (room temperature)
  • 1⁄8 l Buttermilk (room temperature)
  • 1⁄2 Cubes (21 g) fresh yeast (or 1 packet of dry yeast)
  • 650 g + some flour
  • 35 g + 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 40 g Raisins
  • 2 TABLESPOONS dark beet syrup
  • 1 TABLESPOON Cinnamon
  • 70 g Icing sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    For the puree, cook the potatoes for about 20 minutes until soft, drain, peel and mash with a fork until the puree is smooth.

  2. 2

    Add 60 g soft butter while the potatoes are still warm. Add egg, 1⁄8 l milk, buttermilk and yeast, mix well.

  3. 3

    650 g flour, 35 g sugar, 3⁄4 tsp salt and raisins in a bowl. Add mashed potatoes. Mix everything well with the dough hooks of the mixer. Then knead vigorously on the work surface for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Put back into the buttered bowl, cover with a damp tea towel and leave to rise for about 1 hour until the dough has doubled.

  5. 5

    Butter the bottom and rim of a springform pan (26 cm Ø). Melt the syrup and 60 g butter together in the microwave or on the stove. Mix 4 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon. When the dough has risen for about 1 hour, box it down.

  6. 6

    Roll out on the floured work surface to a thickness of 2 cm to form a rectangle of approx. 35 x 30 cm. Brush with butter syrup, leaving 1 cm free at each edge. Spread the cinnamon sugar evenly over the syrup.

  7. 7

    And this is how the Cinnamon Rolls are made: Roll the dough evenly and firmly, like a carpet. Cut off 3-4 cm thick slices with a very sharp knife. Place them close together in the mould.

  8. 8

    The space should be just enough for all the discs. Cover and leave to rise for another 30 minutes.

  9. 9

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 190 °C/circulating air: 165 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Bake Cinnamon Rolls for approx. 30 minutes until they are golden brown. Then allow them to rest for 10 minutes before you put them out.

  10. 10

    Mix 2 tablespoons of milk and icing sugar. Spread the pastry with the icing. Separate the individual Cinnamon Rolls with a knife. Try to keep the size and shape of the original rolls.
