Fresh, hot, and fluffy, with a mouthwatering coffee glaze or cream cheese topping … Need I say more? These cinnamon buns are simply irresistible. (For a healthier version, use oil instead of the margarine.)
5 and 3/4 cups Glicks Flour
4 and 1/2 teaspoons Gefen Dry Yeast
1/2 cup sugar
1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup soy milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup margarine or oil
2 eggs
2 cups dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons Gefen Cinnamon
3/4 cup oil
1/4 teaspoon Haddar Kosher Salt
2 packages (2 tablespoons) vanilla sugar
2 cups confectioners’ sugar
3 tablespoons margarine, melted
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon coffee granules, dissolved in 3–4 tablespoons hot water
3/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup margarine, softened
3 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla Extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
Combine two cups flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in mixer bowl.
Heat milk, water , and margarine in a saucepan over medium flame or in microwave until warm. Add to flour mixture.
Add eggs and remaining flour and knead until smooth. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
Combine all filling ingredients in a bowl.
Punch down the dough and divide into three parts.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece into a 9- x 13-inch (23- x 33-cm) rectangle. Spread filling on top.
Starting with the 13-inch side, roll up tightly. Cut into 9 slices. Place in an 8-inch (20-cm) square pan. Cover buns and let rise another half hour.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Bake buns 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
While the buns are baking, prepare the glaze or the frosting.
Mix all ingredients for glaze in a medium bowl. Drizzle over warm buns.
Alternatively, place all frosting ingredients in a mixing bowl. Beat until well combined.
Spread over warm buns before serving.

This is the best cinnamon bun recipe I have ever made by far!!!! Came out so fluffy, most and delicious!! Totally in competition with cookie corner!!!!
Irresistible!!
What can I use instead of soya milk? Would water be OK? (can’t be dairy)
Almond milk or another non-dairy milk would be preferable. (rice, oat, etc.)
What other non dairy milk can I use instead of soy milk? Would almond milk work or would it give a bad aftertaste?
almond milk should be fine.
Substitute soy milk I would like to make it with the cream cheese frosting. Just wondering if i can use regular milk instead of the soy milk…
Yes!
Double the recipe? Thinking of maybe making these, but was just curious whether I could double the recipe instead of making 2 batches to save some time…
Any thoughts whether that could work?
Thanks
Delicious but a bit too much burnt sugar on the bottom These were really good! However, two question to make them even better:
I would have liked these fluffier. I did not line the pan with flour, I just used a PAM sprayed piece of parchment paper as my work surface (and then used it to line my pan). Would hand kneading make a big difference?
While the buns rose, a lot of the filling dripped out and then burned in the oven. A little of this was good and sticky, but I would like to reduce it. Would sticking them straight in the oven, or only after a few minutes, keep them from rising properly? Is there any other way to prevent so much dripping?
I would put a piece of foil on the bottom of the oven.
Burned in the bottom of the pan, sorry not so clear. Pan was lined. Just a lot of burnt sugar under buns
This is the best cinnamon bun recipe! It was so easy I made it with my neice and everyone loved it so much they said it was better than Kookie Korner!!
omg!!! these were a huge hit. made them for the break fast and my family lovedddddd it!! the recipe was so awesome and so easy to make. ty for this recipe!
delicious
Way too sticky Obviously missing a lot of flour. Not just a little sticky. A lot sticky. Kept adding flour and whole thing wripped up anyways, unlike other recipes….
in the middle of kneading the dough…definitely needs a lot more flour.
Really easy and really good! wow! these are so delicious and not a big deal to make!
They look heavenly.
Great recipe! This is a great cinnamon bun recipe. Simple, easy and delicious. For an “israeli” version- I use shamenet (9% or higher) instead of American cream cheese. You may need to adjust the confectioner’s sugar depending on how thick you like it. I always like to dust it with cinnamon-looks great tastes great.
Amazing feedback. We get a lot of questions about which cheeses to use instead of American cream cheese, so this helps a lot. Thanks Devorah.
