Carl's Cinnamon Rolls

By: Bunny Bostow
Carls Cinnamon Rolls

"It’s been awhile since I baked with yeast, I guess my mood goes in spurts. First it was cookies, then cakes and now its anything with yeast in it. I went looking for a cinnamon roll recipe and came across this on the King Arthur Flour baking site. It was a recipe sent in by Carl Nelson, who along with his father ran the largest Swedish bakery in the west. Here’s what Carl wrote… “My dad and mother were born in Sweden, where Dad had a seven-year apprenticeship in baking before he came to this country. Dad and I operated, for a number of years, the largest Swedish bakery in the West. It was located in Los Angeles, and we enjoyed having some interesting customers: Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman (she didn’t come in person — her uncle shopped for her), and each week we delivered an order to Mary Pickford at Pickfair. There were others, of course.” Carl thank you so much for sharing this recipe and your family’s bakery history. It was my pleasure to make these. "
