Mini Cinnamon Scrolls

Hello everyone!

I’ve been experimenting with so many recipes lately that I haven’t had time to post any or even type them up, so I wanted to make up for it with these amazing Mini Cinnamon Scrolls. Perfect for breakfast or dessert, ahhh they’re just great! It may be a little messy but these will make up for it, although this recipe is for minis, you can always multiply it by 2 to get a few big ones, just press the pastry piece ends to each other.

Cooking Utensils

  • 2 flat cooking trays
  • A knife
  • A bowl
  • Another smaller bowl
  • Tablespoon
  • Baking paper

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsps of butter (melted)
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 3 tbsps of excess brown sugar
  • 2 tsps of ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp of ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 3 sheets of puff pastry (around 24cm by 24cm at least, this can be store bought or home-made)

Method

  1. Line your tray with baking paper and preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celcius.
  2. If you have used frozen store-bought pastry allow it to thaw out for 5-10 minutes.
  3. Combine the one cup of brown sugar and butter together with the spoon, the mixture should be a little moist but not wet.
  4. Add the cinnamon (and nutmeg) and mix it in evenly, leave it aside.
  5. Place the extra 2 tbsps of brown sugar in the small bowl.
  6. Slice your pastry into long strips, around 4cm thick with a knife, be careful not the tear the pastry and keep it neat.
  7. Divide your brown sugar mixture into thirds and place each third in the center of one of the pastry sheets.
  8. Spread it evenly around the pastry sheets with the back of the spoon or with your fingers if necessary.
  9. Once it has been spread around, press it down softly.
  10. Roll each individual strip of pastry into a spiral that resembles a scroll.
  11. Use this to roll the outsides of your scroll in.
  12. Place the scroll on your baking paper and continue to do steps 10 and 11 until you have used all strips of pastry.
  13. Put them in the oven and bake them for 20 minutes or until they look crispy and golden.
  14. Allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before eating.

Well there you go! Another of my sweet recipes for you, this stuff is so good and is beautiful as a Sunday breakfast.

Enjoy and stay sweet!
