Cinnamon Sausson recipe

 Cinnamon sausson 



A classic mom creation, that warms my heart.

Dough ingredients: 

•1 1/4 cup warm water (80–90 degrees)

•2 teaspoons sugar

•1 teaspoon sea salt

•3 to 3 1/2 cups flour *see note below

•1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast

( note: you can use this bread recipe, or any other bread recipe you prefer. I like to use sourdough. Once your dough has risen once, skip to step 4)


Topping ingredients:

•4 tablespoon melted butter

•1 Tablespoon cinnamon

•1/2 cup packed brown sugar


Coffee glaze ingredients:

•1/2 cup strong brewed coffee hot

•2 Tbsp butter

•1 ½ cups powdered sugar


Prepare dough

  1. Place the yeast and sugar in a large bowl and stir in the warm water until everything is dissolved. Add in the salt, then stir in as much flour as you can. You might not need the full amount, or you may need more– it just depends. You are looking to create a soft, pliable dough that isn’t too sticky.
  2. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  3. Place the dough back in the bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Allow it to rise for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
  4. Combine cinnamon and brown sugar topping ingredients into large shallow bowl
  5. Pour half of the melted butter into 13x9” baking pan. 
  6. Once dough had risen, plop the risen dough back out on your counter top begin to pinch off pieces of the dough. Using hands and counter. Roll each piece into a small cylinder log. 
  7. Dip each pice of dough into cinnamon and brown sugar mix, roll dough so all sides are covered in mixture.
  8. Places dough in 9x13” pan. The first piece will be placed in the center of the pan, begin to create a swirl. As you add dough around the first piece. Creating one giant cinnamon roll.
  9. After all the dough has been placed in the pan, pour the remaining melted butter over the casserole.
  10. Let rise for an hour. 
  11. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar mixture over the entire casserole
  12. Set oven to 375 and bake for 25-30 minutes
  13. Combine glaze ingredients and drizzle over cinnamon sausson. 
  14. Serve and enjoy
