Cinnamon Bun Recipe
(Makes 2 loaves of bread or about 18 cinnamon buns)
(Thanks to Dot Brissard in Wanham, Alberta, now deceased)
2 cups hot water (not boiling and pretty warm)
1/3 cup oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 2/3 tablespoons sugar
1 heaping tablespoon quick rise Fleishmans yeast (1 and a half small packets)
1/3 cup oats
about 3 1/2 cups flour
Mix above ingredients.
Add flour until the dough no longer sticks to you or to the bowl (may need an extra 1/2 cup flour.)
Roll out into rectangular shapes.
Cover with:
a small amount of oil (1 tablespoon)
a generous helping of brown sugar (1 cup)
lots of cinnamon.
Roll up and cut into one inch pieces. Makes about 18.
For larger buns, let sit in a warm place for 10 to 20 minutes.
If cooking in an oven:
Oil bottom of pan
Bake 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until golden.
If using a Dutch oven at camp:
Oil the bottom of the 12 “ Dutch oven.
Place pieces in the pan to fill it evenly.
Light 18 charcoal briquettes to get them burning.
Bake with 18 charcoal briquettes, 8 below, 10 on the lid scattered evenly.
Wrap around the oven with aluminum foil twice.
Leave a small opening in the top of the foil.
Bake 45 minutes.
Note: This dough could also make buns, bread, pizza or wraps for hotdogs. ENJOY!
