Ingredients

  • 205 g unsalted butter
  • 85 g full-fat plain cream cheese
  • 227 g whole milk
  • 100 g fresh whole eggs, net weight without shells
  • 21 g ground cinnamon
  • 2 g vanilla extract
  • 539 g plain wheat flour
  • 5 g sunflower oil
  • 8 g instant dried yeast
  • 11 g fine salt
  • 99 g white sugar
  • 170 g icing sugar
  • 213 g soft brown sugar

Preparation

  1. Break and beat the eggs, then weigh without shells. Mix with the lukewarm milk, flour, 74 g butter, salt, white sugar and yeast. Knead until smooth and supple. Use some oil to coat the bowl, cover and let the dough almost double, up to 2 hours depending on room temperature.

  2. Oil the worktop and baking dish with the remaining oil. Roll the dough into a rectangle. The family-size guide is 40 × 53 cm. Spread with the reserved 74 g butter, then the brown sugar mixed with cinnamon. Roll from a short side and cut slices about 33 mm thick.

  3. Arrange cut-side up in the dish. 23 × 33 cm suits the family-size guide. Cover and let almost double, about 30 min. Heat a conventional oven to 205 °C. Bake for about 17 min, until golden and cooked through at the centres.
