Old Fashioned Cinnamon Buns, Best With Warm Jam!

These delightful cinnamon buns are a family favorite. LunaGrown takes time when creating this treat for our friends and loved ones. We like them plain with just a bit of icing. However, we find they are beyond compare when served with warm apple jam, orange marmalade, or our raspberry and strawberry jams.

These buns are nothing like store-bought. These are a hearty bun. They are thick and sweet not fried and oily. These buns take time to create, so be prepared to wait. The more patience you have the better your cinnamon buns will turn out.

This dough can easily be split allowing for one tray of buns and a loaf of sweet yeast bread.

Cinnamon buns fill any kitchen with warm memories, kind thoughts of the past, and smiles for a bright future. These sweet buns make a wonderful gift, include your favorite LunaGrown jam, and share some heartfelt smiles with old friends and new.

These cinnamon buns make a great gift or surprise for someone special. With the addition of LunaGrown jam, they are sure to be remembered and requested often.

For frosting combine powdered sugar, vanilla and whole milk to the consistency desired.
Avoid using brown sugar as it tends to crystallize into little sugar rocks and make the buns less enjoyable
