Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour,
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar,
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon,
- 1/2 teaspoon salt,
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened,
- 1/2 cup warm milk,
- 1 egg, beaten,
- 1 tablespoon honey,
- 1/2 cup rolled oats,
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the softened butter and use a pastry blender or your fingertips to work it into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually pour in the warm milk, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together.
- Knead the dough for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
- Mix the honey and beaten egg in a small bowl. Brush this mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
- In a small bowl, mix together the oats and brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the dough, leaving the borders clear.
- Roll the dough into a tight log, starting from one of the long edges. Cut into 12 equal pieces.
- Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving about 1 inch between each bun.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
