Gathering Your Ingredients and Preparation

Essential Ingredients for Cinnamon Roll Bliss : Before you start crafting your cinnamon rolls, ensure you have all the essential ingredients ready:

• Puff pastry sheets
• Raisins
• Cinnamon powder
• Egg yolks
• Brown sugar
• Butter (melted)
• All-purpose flour
• Vanillins

Preparing Your Workstation : Set up your workstation for baking success. Clear space for rolling out the puff pastry sheets and preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Now, let’s delve into the heart of this cinnamon roll recipe.

Assembling and Rolling the Cinnamon Rolls

Crafting Your Cinnamon Filling : In a bowl, combine the egg yolks, brown sugar, melted butter, vanillins, cinnamon powder, and flour. Mix these ingredients until you have a smooth and aromatic cinnamon filling.

Rolling and Freezing : Lay one puff pastry sheet and spread half of the cinnamon filling evenly. Add half of the raisins, then carefully roll up the pastry sheet. Place it in the freezer for a few minutes to make slicing easier. Repeat these steps for the second puff pastry sheet.

Slicing and Preparing for Baking : Once the rolls are chilled, cut off the edges and slice the rolls into equal portions using a thin string or sharp knife. Place these delightful rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, and gently press them with your hand to ensure even baking.

Baking and Savoring Your Cinnamon Rolls

Coating and Baking : In a bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt to create a coating. Brush the cinnamon rolls with this mixture for a beautiful, golden finish. Now, preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and bake these cinnamon rolls for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and fill your kitchen with the sweetest aroma.

Savoring the Sweet Success : Once your cinnamon rolls are out of the oven, let them cool slightly, and then indulge in the gooey, cinnamon-infused goodness. Whether served warm or at room temperature, these homemade cinnamon rolls are a slice of heaven that will leave your taste buds craving more. Enjoy the sweet rewards of your culinary prowess!
