Cinnamon Rolls from Puff Pastry
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Cinnamon rolls aren't just buns—they're joy and warmth for the whole family. You can buy puff pastry at the store or make it at home yourself. Thanks to the yeast and proofing, the buns turn out soft and not as crumbly as those made from plain dough. These sweet rolls are perfect for cozy breakfasts, family gatherings, or as a dessert with tea and milk. You can serve them warm or cold, with glaze, icing, or plain. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
