Cinnamon Rolls
Hi all.
I've recently tried Peter Reinhardt's recipe for cinnamon rolls (Bread Baker's Apprentice). Though after the buns had baked although they were softer than unenriched loaf breads, it was pretty tough for a cinnamon roll. The outside was a little bit crusty, but I had only baked them for a little less than 15 minutes. I've tried making enriched breads in the past and I have always encountered this problem of a slightly tough crumb rather than the desired soft and buttery crumb.
I used bread flour, when I usually use all-purpose... So I don't know what I could be doing wrong.
Or is this cinnamon roll recipe meant to be this way?
Hoping for some advice or insight.
Thanks :)
