Ingredients

Servings

• 3 cup All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 packet Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Warm water
• 4 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 2 cup Apples (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoon Milk

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. In a separate small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes.

3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

6. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
7. Flatten each dough ball and place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center. Pinch the edges together to seal.
8. Place the filled buns on a greased baking sheet and let them rise for 15 minutes.
9. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the buns for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

12. Serve and enjoy!
