- Mix everything in a stand mixer until smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover the with a plate, foil, or plastic wrap.
- Allow to rest in a warm place overnight, or for up to 12 hours.
- The next day or after 12, preheat the oven to 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Lightly coat the counter with a little bit of oil, and roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch thick rectangle.
- Coat the dough with the butter.
- In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon.
- Generously dust the dough with the cinnamon-sugar mixture and grated apples. Spread evenly.
- Eveningly cut 1-inch to 1.5-inch strips out of the dough.
- Roll up each bun as neatly as you can and leave about 1 inch off the end to tuck it under the bun.
- This recipe should make 12 even buns.
- Lightly brush heavy whipping cream on a large baking sheet covered with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Place each bun onto a large spaced-out.
- Lightly coat each bun with the eggwash.
- Bake at 360 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the buns are lightly browned and the dough is cooked through. Allow them to cool for about 5 minutes.
- While the buns are baked, prepare the cream cheese icing.
- In a separate bowl, add the cream cheese, butter, sifted powdered sugar, and vanilla extract or paste and mix well.
- Pour as little or as much of the cream cheese icing over each cinnamon bun and enjoy 😊 .
