Swedish cinnamon buns

It's Waffle day tomorrow, not cinnamon bun day, but I was in the mood to make them anyway. Eating them when they're fresh out of the oven with a glass of milk is a flashback to my childhood. I used to stay with my grandma when she had 'bake days', and the entire kitchen would fill up with delicious cake and bread scents. Everyone makes different buns, but I like these swirl types. And it's important to add plenty of crystallised sugar!

David, I use a Swedish recipe, so instead of translating that I tried to scour the web for a recipe in English - and I found one! 

This is from the site sweden.se and it's a great and easy recipe, just like I make them!

For the filling I also use vanilla sugar, which makes it even tastier. 

Let me know if you make them!

 

LindyD, thank you so much for your kind words.
