Ok, I've done a search but I can't find where I saw the recipe last year. I'm posting this in here because I made them for Christmas day and now I can't find where/if I bookmarked it.

I think they were no-knead ones and may have had some dried fruit in too. I've googled loads of recipes but I'd like to consult with MNers Grin

FRUIT?

ON CHRISTMAS DAY??

Kryten2X4B523P · 06/09/2015 10:11

Haha! I do seem to live with a couple of fruit bats masquerading as children, but YES to fruit on Christmas Day. Particularly combined with flour, eggs, and sugar Grin

binary if you stop thinking about it as fruit and instead consider it as small chunks of almost pure sugar wrapped up in dough, then topped with sugar and butter would that help? Smile

Sorry op no. But if you find a good recipe let me know

Kryten2X4B523P · 06/09/2015 10:16

I could eat a whole Christmas cake in one sitting, would that count as my 5 a day?

I shall keep looking, but I've seen so many recipes now I have no idea what was even in the original one. Somebody linked to one last year though, I know it.

Place marking as I would love an easy cinnamon roll recipe for everyday christmas!

I have two recipes for cinnamon rolls. the first is Nigella's, from Domestic Goddess, the second is an American recipe, which bakes the rolls in a buttery caramel sauce, so when you turn the rolls out of the tin, the sauce all sinks into them. Would you like this recipe? Grin

MrsSchadenfreude · 06/09/2015 10:24

Both need kneading and rolling, but you can make one or two days before and stick in the fridge, or somewhere cold, for a slow rise overnight.

Wilhelmenawonka · 06/09/2015 10:25

YES!
Ahem....

That would be amazing thank you

AsTimeGoesBy · 06/09/2015 10:25

I made these last year, as posted by another MNer, they were easy and delicious but no one else in the family wanted them so a lot went in the bin Sad. I made more and took them to work on my birthday where they were much more appreciated.

Ooooh caramel sauce sounds familiar. They were quite saucy IIRC.

All recipes welcome though. I suppose if I have to I could test out all of them a few before Christmas... Grin

In the interests of science and reasons... I wioo try all recipes in this board Grin

TPel · 06/09/2015 17:27

I've looked at that website Astime. Wow!

SchrodingersHat · 06/09/2015 18:28

I made these last year. I'm sure I got the recipe from here, was this the one that you're looking for?

BathshebaDarkstone · 06/09/2015 18:36

MrsSchadenfreude IIRC I saw a link to the Nigella recipe on here.

VeryPunny · 06/09/2015 18:39

Step away from the Domestic Goddess ones, the recipe it desperately unreliable. I have had good results from the Joy of Baking cinnamon roll recipe, Felicity Cloake from the Guardian's Perfect series and the small batch Pioneer Woman's cinnamon rolls. Google should oblige with recipes.

MrsSchadenfreude · 06/09/2015 19:15

I've never had a problem with the Nigella ones (the ordinary ones, not the Schnecken), although I think this is one recipe where you need a lot more flour than it says, and also double the amount of cinnamon butter. I am still looking for my USA Cookbook, and will put the recipe on here when I've found it.

swooosh · 10/09/2015 21:45

I make the ones by Pioneer Woman religiously, halve the recipe, it makes tonnes! Use the round foil trays from the poundshop to cook in, you can freeze them and stick them in the oven from frozen to reheat.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 27/09/2015 10:08

All these recipes are so different (head spins)

vegan/butter/oil/margarine......................

I was interested in the minimalist baker site, they said if you use dairy milk, the protein interferes with the yeast unless it's scalded (?boiled) they use vegan.

I have a very old recipe for banana buns - it uses banana chips,pecans,cinnamon. Need to dig that out. I could do a batch overnight on Christmas Eve but I'd probably bake them late evening and toast them for breakfast (not for me, I'm GF and I really CBA trying to fathom the recipe for that)

The Ikea Cinnamon Buns were very disappointing, like bread with a puff of cinnamon dusted over Hmm

I always do the Pioneer Woman ones too, they are divine.

The recipe does make about 48 of the things though and they are enormous!
