Soft, melt-in-the-mouth, fragrant... cinnamon rolls are taking overParisian shop windows. Long overlooked in Paris, these delicious little brioches are winning over fans of sweet treats and growing in popularity.
Topped with icing or sugar, these cinnamon-filled brioche rolls are a popular specialty in Nordic and Anglo-Saxon countries. The most classic version of the cinnamon roll consists of a buttery brioche dough rolled with a mixture of cinnamon and brown sugar, then baked until it has a melt-in-the-mouth texture in the center and is slightly caramelized around the edges. A cream cheese or powdered sugar glaze completes the treat, making it even more delicious.
In Paris, some establishments play the tradition card with recipes inspired by cafés in Copenhagen and Stockholm. Others, on the contrary, revisit the cinnamon roll with additional spices such as cardamom and creative toppings such as pecans, salted caramel, dark chocolate, and more.
Perfect for a comforting breakfast or winter snack, cinnamon rolls are irresistible with their enveloping aroma, generous texture, and downright addictive quality, especially when served warm!
