Mom Photographer and The Gang

In my opinion there is nothing wrong with Mondays…, but I totally understand those who hate them…

“I don’t like Monday” Polish movie (very funny, believe me!) from 1971  – watching it is a one way how to enter Monday with a good mood.

More tasty and multi-international way is to have a fresh-baked cinnamon butterflies for breakfast:

This is the recipe:

• 7 g active dry yeast (one teaspoon = 3.1 g)
• 1/2 cup lukewarm water
• 4 Tbps melted butter
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 very small eggs
• a pinch of salt
• 1/2 tsp ground cardamom (I skipped it)
• 2 1/4 cups plain flour
• filling: 4 Tbps soft butter; 1/4 cup sugar mixed with 1 Tbp cinnamon
• glaze: 1 small egg mixed with 1 Tbp milk; some crushed sugar cubes (don’t skip the sugar otherwise the buns won’t be sweet enough);
• you can put some almond flakes on top as well or make a glaze (I didn’t have almonds or ingredients for glaze so I skipped it)

For directions go to Kitchen Unplugged.

For direction in Polish go to Motylki z Cynamonem.

I made the dough last night and kept it in the fridge till this morning.

To make the dough last night took me about 10 minutes.

This morning I spent additional 10 minutes to roll the dough out, put cinnamon-sugar-butter filling, roll the dough up, and cut.

10 minutes of waiting for them to bake 🙂

Very easy to make, and very tasty! Worth to try it out!

Happy Monday, everybody!
