It is only mid November but it do feel like winter already with some days hitting as low as -5 deg!! This is the time of the year when baking is a staple in our family. Apart from enjoying the warm that radiates from the oven, it is just therapeutic. The days that are short doesn't seem that miserable when you get busy in the kitchen, no? I came from a place where summer is like 365 days a year and in this time of the year, I do miss the SUN, ALOT. So, today I decided to bake this simple Cinnamon Roll with Almonds for tea time. It is really really minimal effort and take you barely 15 mins to get things going. The secret to this simplicity is, pastry puff!! If you are in a lazy mood but your hand is itching to bake, this is really really a quick fix!! I promise you, this recipe is a keeper!! So, my simple recipe is:
Cinnamon Roll with Almonds
Ingredient
1 packet of puff pastry
2-3 tbsp melted butter
brown sugar
cinnamon powder
almonds
honey
some butter to be placed on the roll
egg wash to be brushed around the roll so the pastry stick together
Method
Spread the puff pastry on flat surface and sprinkle a bit of flour.
Brush melted butter on it and sprinkle brown sugar accordingly, followed by cinnamon powder. Roll it and slice it or cut it in equal size. Arrange the pieces on tray, place bits of butter on it. Top with almond bits and drizzle a bit of honey so that the almond stick on the top and it is caramelised at the same time!! Bake at 180deg for 15mins, depending on your oven. Get your coffee, be lazy and enjoy your tea break!!
The babies when they are ready!!
Brush the melted butter over the puff pastry and sprinkle brown sugar and
cinnamon powder over it.
Bits of butter on top of the roll, diced almonds and drizzle of honey
