Cinnamon buns are completely scrumptious and this recipe is customized from the ScandiKitchen recipe. I’ve retained all the great things, the cinnamon, cardamom and brown sugar however I’ve additionally added a wholesome dose of Guittard chocolate chips to make these much more indulgent.

I make cinnamon buns so much, I believe they’re nice all yr spherical. The delicate pillowy dough, the sturdy hit of cinnamon and cardamom and the sticky, syrupy sweetness of the melted brown sugar and butter turning to caramel. It’s like a hug in a bun.

They make an amazing on the go breakfast, the sweetness reducing by means of a wealthy sturdy espresso. Or maybe a snack while you’ve gone out for a bracing stroll, the hit of sugar and the warming cinnamon and cardamom being simply what you want on an icy wintry stroll.

The one actual modifications I made to this recipe was the addition of chocolate chips and I halved the recipe as a result of I don’t know sufficient folks to distribute that many buns to and I used to be restricted on freezer area.
