Victor's "Swedish cinnamon bun recipe" (Recept på Kanelbulle) | |
Wheat dough (48 buns): | |
150 g margarine or butter | |
5 dl milk | |
50 g baking yeast | |
1/2 teaspoon salt | |
1-1 1/2 dl sugar | |
(Optional) 2 teaspoons of crushed or grounded cardamom seeds. | |
1.4 liters of flour | |
Filling: | |
50-75 g margarine or butter, room temperature | |
1/2 - 1 dl sugar | |
1 teaspoon crushed or ground cardamom and 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon (or 2 teaspoons of cinnamon) | |
Brushing and garnishing: | |
1 egg, sugar or Almond Shavings | |
^^ Traditionally we use something we call "Pearl sugar" which is optimal but normal sugar or sprinkles is okay too. | |
Pearl sugar (Pärlsocker) looks like this: https://search.brave.com/images?q=p%C3%A4rlsocker | |
Instructions: | |
Melt the butter/margarine in a saucepan. | |
Pour in the milk and allow the mixture to warm, to reach body temperature (approx. + 37° C). | |
Dissolve the yeast in a dough bowl with the help of the salt. | |
Add the 37° C milk/butter mixture, sugar and if you choose the optional cardamom. (I like this option!) | |
and just over 2/3 of the flour. | |
Work the dough shiny and smooth, about 4 minutes with a machine or 8 minutes by hand. | |
Add if necessary, additional flour but save at least 1 dl for baking. | |
Let the dough rise covered (by a kitchen towel), about 30 minutes. | |
Work the dough into the bowl and then pick it up on a floured workbench. | |
Knead the dough smoothly. Divide the dough into 2 parts. | |
Roll out each piece into a rectangular cake. | |
Stir together the ingredients for the filling and spread it. | |
Roll up and cut each roll into 24 pieces. | |
Place them in paper molds or directly on baking paper with the cut surface facing up. | |
Let them rise covered with a baking sheet, about 30 minutes. | |
Brush the buns with beaten egg and sprinkle your chosen topping. | |
Bake in the middle of the oven at 250° C, 5-8 minutes. | |
Allow to cool on a wire rack under a baking sheet. | |
Enjoy during Fika! | |
PS; Can be frozen and thawed in microwave for later enjoyment as well. |

I don't know about the international availability of "Pearlsugar" but I found a place doing international shipping of it here: Shop Pärlsocker Also normal sugar is ok, and or you could experiment with some sprinkles as well :-)
"Pärlsocker" might be the traditional way but hey, be creative with the topping!
