Ingredients
BUN RECIPE
3 cups plain flour
3 Tablespoons white sugar
¾ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons yeast
1 cup milk
3 Tablespoons water
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup butter

FILLING
¾ cup packed brown sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
2 Tablespoons softened butter or margarine

GLAZE
¾ cup icing sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla
2-3 teaspoons milk

Instructions

BUN DOUGH METHOD
Put flour, sugar, salt in the bread maker first.
Make a small pocket in the flour and add the yeast here.
Melt the butter in the microwave.
Add butter, beaten egg, milk and water to the dry ingredients.
Turn the bread maker onto the dough setting and leave to mix.

When the dough is done, transfer it to a lightly floured surface.
Knead in enough flour to make it easy to handle.
Using a rolling pin roll the dough out to approx. 1-2 cms thick.
Cover with a tea towel and for 5-10 mins while mixing the filling.

FILLING METHOD
Place the butter, cinnamon and brown sugar in the microwave and heat for 20 seconds until the butter melts. Stir the mix to combine.

COMBINING FILLING & BUN DOUGH
Roll over the dough with rolling pin to check the thickness.
Spread over the filling to the entire surface.
Roll up the dough into a log.
Cut the log into circles about 2.5cm thick and place in greased dish (approx. 23x33cm)
Cover again with tea towel and leave in a warm place for 30 mins or until they double in size.
Bake in the oven at 180°C for 15-20 minutes until they appear light brown on top.

MAKING GLAZE
Combine icing sugar, vanilla and milk together. Swirl over cooked buns with a pastry brush.

Alternatives
Adapted from Food.com
The bun mixture is made in the bread maker. These are very cinnamon flavoured buns so you can always add a little less cinnamon to the filling if you prefer. You could add some drained stewed apples or dried fruit to the filling for some variations. The glaze is an optional extra for after baking.
