Bon Appétit joins Chef Miro Uskokovic, owner of NYC’s Hani’s Bakery to make their best-selling malted cinnamon bun. Hani’s is a modern American-style bakery that has become very popular with locals, often with queues down the block. Light, fluffy, and airy with a gooey cream cheese glaze, it’s no surprise these cinnamon buns sell out fast daily.
The shape of pastry tip you use for this churros recipe is very important. If the tip isn’t closed, or rounded off, the churros may break as you’re frying them (we used size 845 tips). Keep that in mind if you’re using a different size—the cook times may vary. The sugar matters, too. Conventional granulated is too fine and raw sugar is too coarse—it won't stick to the churros.
2 weeks of research. A (very) complex spreadsheet. 6 pounds of flour, 20 hours of cooking and so, so many tastings. Join Zaynab Issa in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she takes you through the journey of creating her extra-fluffy cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting - a recipe that took 72 rolls to achieve perfection.
