Cinnamon hot dog bun recipe



Just about last week I had cravings for a warm hot dog bun. It's been a while since I last ate cinnamon hot dog bun. So, yesterday afternoon I decided to make hot dog buns for tea time and dinner. My friend proclaimed it wast the best hot dog he has ever eaten, much better compared to the one at the bakery shop.

Hot dog bun is a type of soft bun shaped specifically to contain a hot dog. A good hot dog bun needs to be light and tender. Making your own hot dog really is easy and does not take much time. I never thought making hot dog buns would be this fast.
