Name: Finnish Cardamom Cinnamon Buns
Prep time: 30 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 2 h 10 min
Ingredients: 4½ cups all-purpose flour (4½ cups plus 1 tbsp); ½ package fresh yeast (half a 50 g package); 1 cup milk; 1 large egg; ½ cup sugar (1/2 cup); 5 tbsp butter, softened; 1 tsp ground cardamom; 3½ tbsp butter, softened; ¼ cup sugar (1/4 cup); 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1 egg white; pearl sugar (sold in baking supply stores)

How I make it

In a stand mixer with the dough hook, mix all the dough ingredients until soft, smooth and no longer sticky.
Let rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled.
Roll out into a rectangle ¼ inch (½ cm) thick, spread with the butter and sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon.
Roll up into a log and cut into slices ¼-½ inch (½-1 cm) thick.
Stand each slice on its edge and press down the middle with a skewer so the sides fan out.
Let rise for another 30 minutes, brush with the egg white and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
Bake in an oven preheated to 425°F (220°C) for 8-10 minutes.
