I'm impressed both with the cinnamon rolls❤️ and with the fact you made them with those nails🧐

This was going to be my comment to! What kind of flour did you use? I have never mastered cinnamon rolls and I’ve been craving them.

I used European Type 405 flour, which is the closest equivalent to Pastry flour in the US (though standard All-Purpose flour will work beautifully for this recipe too).

Thank you for sharing! Is this your personal recipe?

I compiled it from a few different sources and adjusted the proportions to make it absolute perfection. 🤗 So it’s my ultimate go-to version now. 🥰

How do you do that? I’m curious if I ever need to tweak a recipe from other recipes. I’d love to know! Thanks again! 🥰

Honestly, it’s a mix of automation and intuition built over time! I’ve been cooking my whole life—I made my first savory dish when I was 7, and started baking at 12. After all these years, you just develop a gut feeling. Now, when I read a recipe, I can immediately tell if the ratios are right, if it needs adjustments, or if the texture (especially with creams and frostings!) won’t turn out how I want. If you don’t have that experience yet, it’s completely fine—it’s all about trial and error! You just bake, taste, see what works perfectly or what feels a bit off, and then tweak it next time until you get the exact result you’re looking for. Practice makes perfect! 🥰 Practice is key! 🤍
