Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.

Butter a 8 inch round baking pan/dish. Place all glaze ingredients into a small pot/saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring to make sure the butter is all melted and sugar is dissolved. Pour the glaze into your pie dish and set aside.

Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, cream, and oil together. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the milk mixture.

Stir with a fork or wooden spoon until it all comes together in a soft dough. Dump out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into about a 9 by 18 inch rectangle.

Spread with the softened butter (fingers work great!) Mix the filling ingredients together with a fork and sprinkle evenly over the butter. Roll up from the long end, carefully and tightly. Cut into 9 pieces, about 2 inches wide.

Place into the pan with the glaze, cut side down.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden brown. Place your serving plate upside down over the top, hold them together and flip over, removing the pie pan. Scoop any remaining glaze over the buns and serve warm.
