I've tried out many cinnamon bun recipes over the years, never skimping on the ingredients. (Some of my recipes had 2 pounds of margarine in it, plus loads of other "good stuff.") This one is by far the easiest and quickest to make, has the most delicious moist taste – that doesn't disappear the next day – and not that bad for a diet! No need for any mixer, and no need to rise makes it the perfect recipe for an impromptu party or melava malka!
