The BEST EVER Cinnamon Buns!

The UBC CINNAMON BUNS are my favourite of all time - my mom always makes them on holiday and special occasions, and I literally can't get enough of them! You can find the original recipe for them here: https://food.ubc.ca/ubc-cinnamon-bun-recipe/; but note - the original recipe makes a TON!! For my version of this recipe, I actually half the dough, but keep the filling quantity the same lol! 

Without further ado, here's my adapted recipe!!

For the Dough:
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup International Delight Creamer (your favourite flavour!)
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup warm water
    • combined with 1/2 tsp sugar
    • and 2.25 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 egg
  • 4.5 cups flour

For the Filling:
  • 3/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup International Delight creamer (your favourite flavour!)
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon

For the Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened in the microwave
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Let's get started!
  1. Scald milk (stovetop or microwave! Just make sure it's hot!), Stir in room temp butter until fully melted. Add sugar and salt. Cool in fridge until lukewarm.
  2. Combine your 1/2 tsp sugar and active dry yeast with the warm water, stir, and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine milk mixture with the egg. Stir in dissolved yeast mixture.
  4. Add half of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon until combined. Continue to add the remaining flour. Once it becomes to hard to mix with your spoon, pour it all out onto a clean counter and knead for 10 minutes, to fully incorporate the rest of the flour. Add a bit more flour as necessary if it starts to become super sticky while you're kneading it. This will be a very soft dough though!
  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic, and allow to rise for an hour.
  6. When the dough has doubled in size, place it back onto your lightly floured counter, give it a good beating and roll it out until it's a very large rectangle (like 18 x 12 inches)
  7. Prepare your filling, and spread half of your filling mixture onto the rolled out dough.
  8. Roll it up!
  9. Grab a big baking pan, and pour the remaining filling mixture into the bottom of the pan. Cut your cinnamon roll into 2 inch slices, and place about 1 inch apart in the pan. 
  10. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and allow the buns to rise again for another 45 minutes.
  11. Once they've doubled in size, bake at 350 F for about 40 minutes.
  12. When they're done, remove them from the oven, grab and even larger baking pan or tray. Place the second baking pan/tray (or heat safe serving tray) over the cinnamon buns, and VERY CAREFULLY flip the entire thing, inverting the cinnamon buns and removing them from their baking pan.
  13. Prepare your cream cheese frosting and drizzle over top! Add some colourful sprinkles! (I get mine from FANCY SPRINKLES; you can use code LUCIEBAKES15 at the Fancy Sprinkles checkout for 15% OFF your Fancy Sprinkles order!)
