Tried your walnut cinnamon rolls and its good. Can I double the recipe in one go? Thanks
Hi anonymous.
of course you can double your recipe but bake separately twice unless you've got a big oven to make a big one. Have fun..

Is there any difference between using butter/margarine and vegetable oil?
Hi,
Butter is from animal while margarine is processed into block and they are normally from palm oil. Vegetable like corn oil , sunflower, olive, etc are more watery and it's from vegetables.

can bread flour and egg be replaced?
ya nikki,
You can use all plain flour and replace egg with milk.

Hi Aunty!
Tried your recipe this afternoon. The texture and taste were good even though the texture was not as fluffy as your pictures.
I used the breadmachine (select dough programme) and added 1 tsp bread improver. However, I found the dough very sticky and difficult to handle. I wonder what has gone wrong? Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Jennifer,
The dough is meant to be sticky. Dust the table with flour, place the sticky on top and dust flour on top again then roll it with a rolling pin. Every now and then, sprinkle some flour to prevent sticking to the rolling pin. When the dough is sticky, the cinnamon roll will be very fluffy. Another way is to add in liquid gradually rather then pouring in one shot. As soon as you find it pliable and soft, stop at that stage.

Hi Aunty,
I havent made bread at home before. How do I prove bread? Can I do it at room temperature?
Thanks!
Hi anonymous,
Just cover the prepared bread dough N leave it aside at room temp. for 45 mins till it doubles in size.
rgds
Thanks Aunty! Will go try out your bread recipes!
Aunty Lucy,i enjoy reading your blog and quite addicted to it!always wanted to bake bread and very tempted to do so after reading about it.Can i mix every thing with mixer using a dough hook or is it better to do it by hands?and if kneading by hand,roughly how long do we need to knead before proofing? Thanks.
Hi anonymous,
Use a dough hook....easier and better texture.
rgds
Thanks very much aunty lucy for the fast reply-will try this weekend.
hello aunty yo..
i did it..
but when i proof it.. it didnt really double in size. :( so right now im just proofing for another 10 mins. but still no double. i wonder what went wrong?
Hi Elaine,
Have you bake the cinnamon rolls yet? Normally it will bounce up really big like roti boy.
rgds
hello aunty yo,
i baked it last night..
never really *poof* up like roti boy.. in fact, just barely double in size.. and it tastes kinda dry not like 'QQ', and abit hard and dense. :(
is it because when i mixed the milk.. the milk is cold then it's not the optimum temperature for the yeast to grow?
was your cinnamon roll 'QQ'? the ones i buy at cinnabun tree also very dry, i didnt like that. i like the moist and chewy sort. :P sorry! first time baking bread!
Hi Elaine,
cold milk is good for mixing bun dough.
I think you machine is not powerful enough to bring out the gluten in the flour. You need to beat it longer. Another factor could be your yeast. It's inactive.
rgds
i just opened the yeast bottle.
so it's not the cold milk that's making the yeast hard to 'grow'?
how would i know if the yeast is inactive? is thr an experiment?
Hi Elaine,
just stir a tsp of yeast into some water and see whether it's frothy in 5 mins. If there is no reaction, then your yeast is dead.
rgds
oh! ok! i'll try soon.
thanks alot! :D
dont we have to dissolve the yeast in warm milk first?
Hi anonymous,
both ways are acceptable as long as your yeast are ingood condition.
