🍷Sommelier's Recommendation
Lush sweetness with balancing acidity enhances caramelized cinnamon and brown butter notes.
Light sweetness and acidity complement the richness while refreshing the palate.
Steps:
- Combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a stand mixer.
- Add eggs and warm milk; mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- Gradually incorporate butter and knead until smooth and elastic (windowpane stage).
- Proof dough at 75�78�F until doubled, about 90 minutes.
- Refrigerate dough overnight for flavor development and easier handling.
- Prepare brown butter by heating butter until amber and nutty; cool slightly and mix with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and salt.
- Roll dough into a rectangle, spread filling evenly, and fold into thirds.
- Chill for 20 minutes, then repeat folding process once more for lamination.
- Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness and slice into 2-inch spirals.
- Place rolls into a buttered baking dish and proof 45�60 minutes until puffy.
- Bake at 350�F (175�C) for 20�25 minutes until golden brown.
