How to make no-rise cinnamon buns

Preheat your oven to 375F / Gas mark 5 / 190C

In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder & salt.

Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until pea size pieces.

Add the cold buttermilk all at once and mix until dough forms a ball.

Roll dough onto a lightly floured surface, into a large rectangle.

In a separate bowl, mix together the cinnamon filling ingredients.

Spread evenly overtop of cinnamon bun dough,

then roll the shortest ends toward each other.

Cut the cinnamon bun log into 2-3″ pieces and place in a buttered casserole dish.

Bake for 18-22 minutes, until the buns are golden brown.

While the cinnamon buns are cooling, whip together the cream cheese drizzle, adding more sugar for a thicker drizzle, or more corn syrup for a lighter drizzle.
