The Abbott Cinnabon® Experience (& How-To Guide)

[MelugoAlyan]

I think it´s awsome when men cook.

[jkjessyjk]

I work at Cinnabon and this is so wrong. Clearly your sources suck.

[GoneDrake]

I work at Cinnabon and I am cringing.

[rnr090cool]

Lmao, that was great.

[tuco1213]

are you the twins that wanted to be like brad pitt and had face surgery on mtv?

[abbottfamily]

@tuco1213 Umm...

[FluffyWuffypuppy]

HAHA! U 2 R So Cute! Thanks so much for making this video!  I CAN'T WAIT to Try it out! I LOVE LOVE LOVE CINNABONS!!!

[snakeandgardenhose]

last summer I decided I was going to master baking with yeast (why yes I'm a dork) a lot of yeasts need to be proofed . mixing it with some warm water or milk and sugar to make sure it's still alive and active so you don't use inactive yeast and waste your other ingredients. also if the liquid is too hot, it will kill your yeast temperatures are very important in using yeast not only in proofing the yeast but in the rise for the dough.. so just try and try again... great video.. make me laugh.

[JonnyFawkinBoy]

cool video n all but for the dough u use ap flour buttermilk and margerine not butter and cinnabon uses a special cinnamon its called makara cinnamon

[nkuajsuab]

They look beautiful yummy

[janefromdream]

Thanks for the revealing of the top seeecret reception ! You are so nice

[feldsliscia]

NOOOO!!!! THE YEASTTT!!!!

[abc123wyz05]

The end is the best!!!

[luluxxx5]

Haha just trying to make mine...2nd attempt :/ but you guys are soooo funny!!!! rolling the dough is a problem for me bleehhh YOURS LOOK AMAZING :)

[luluxxx5]

love your sense of humour :)

[Soulcakeduckling]

Salt retards yeast. That's usually not a problem in most recipes, but I'd still recommend trying to keep them "separate" if possible. Usually when working with yeast I do wet ingredients, then yeast, then dry ingredients and salt last. Hopefully your dough will rise a bit more with this tip--it's never been a problem for me.

[vida130]

You guys rock I can't wait to make these!

[azncookiepoops]

you guys just inspired me to make these now.. btw i think i've seen your family on TV before

[memodb9s]

disturbing 

[xXFIREWIREXx]

your mum must be gutted to have 2 bent sons

[a13x4]

:) Awesome vid. Researched the calories as I was a bit shocked by the 1000 calories almost that you said they had.

most sources said they had around 730 calories just to let you know ^_^

[abbottfamily]

@a13x4 Well, we fancy the Pecanbon. :-)

[Doughnutchef]

Hey guys,nice video i think your rise problem was the fact that you dissolved dry yeast in warm milk,not a good idea,instead dissolve in a small portion of warm water and oinch of sugar first then add to rest of ingredients

[lynnieinsonora]

Carl must have skipped his lemon water on this day.

[MakeYourself1987]

You guys are goofy. Good video. I'm doing this a second time since the first time I failed to let the yeast rise during and after the dough was mixed.

[abbottfamily]

@MakeYourself1987 Note: our dough didn't rise either, until we stuck it in the oven.

[MakeYourself1987]

@abbottfamily I gave it a second try and they're in the oven right now. Would you like a photo when they're done?

Also wanted to say your video was helpful so thank you.

[abbottfamily]

@MakeYourself1987 Glad it was helpful! Hope the buns turned out great. We haven't made 'em since this video, but Christmas is coming up, so I guess we'll have to!

[MakeYourself1987]

@abbottfamily Yeah. They turned out pretty good this time around. It's not similar to a Cinnabon though but close. About two weeks ago I found out they sell the 6 packs for $10 instead of $15. I guess that's the cheapest it'll get and the actual thing. Have fun making them again haha

[drewjsph02]

@abbottfamily if you add the salt into the water with the yeast it actually deactivates the yeast.... you have to stir the salt into the flour and it will rise a whole lot better.

[Shkodnaya]

мммм!!!!

[diana1775]

hi, i watched the vid, but i didn't see any sugar in the recipe, does the dough not have sugar, and did you proof the yeast? thanks! oh and btw great entertaining vid!

[abbottfamily]

@diana1775 See 1:27... 1/2 c. granulated sugar. :-) No yeast proofing, what you see is actually what we did, no more!

[RedShoes201]

I am really gonna try doing this >_0

Hey have you guys had any contact with Mrs Lowe (cant remember her name) since the show?? it was my favourite episode :)

[barbietwins15]

haha exactly how much butter did you use in the entire recipe?

[liageiva]

you guys were in that show Trading Spouses!!!! lol I love that episode.

[barbette24]

I was a trainee baker once and I agree with chewygum123, the salt killed the yeast, that's why your dough didn't rise as well but good vid lads. Liked that ya measured the dough...hehehe :)

[hibhop1]

yum

[LordViczerez]

Cheers mates, these were awesome.

[robok]

i love the big one!

hello handsome!

^.^

[abbottfamily]

@robok Hey papa, you've got a fan! ~Luke

[rahimnfl]

my kryptonite are these lovely pastries

[WickedOneVA]

I think its wonderful that you guys are in love...it shows and it's just magical.

[fiddlefella]

@WickedOneVA Well, we are brothers, so if you're talking about "brotherly love" you're spot on.

But if you mean boyfriend/girlfriend kind of love, think again. ;-P

[HunterMann]

Great baking video guys! I notice that the kitchen has a big one-burner Wolf, very cool! Is that for doing big soups, or maybe laundry? ha! The swirls hypnotized me too!

[fiddlefella]

Thanks!

Ah, the Wolf! We use it mostly for stirfrys (at least, I think that's why we got it originally). Though we actually use it for most everything. ;-)

[fuegoGal]

you guys are hilarious!

[kurumi06]

Mmm looks good! What chewy said was right, salt will inhibit the yeast and since that was one of the first things you added, i think that might account for why it didn't rise.

[ksunderdogz71]

Will we be watching you on the Food Channel in the near future?

[lilsobz]

you guys made me laugh alot! and the cinnabons looked amazing!! xD

[IrishFaery2]

Those look butterific!

[fractal420]

Butter makes the world a more enjoyable place.

Did you use warm water to help wake up the yeast? Could be why it didn't rise as expected.

[fiddlefella]

@fractal420 We did use warm milk to wake up the yeast, but I suspect the cold eggs cooled it down.

Either that, or the milk may have been too warm and killed the yeast that way.

[fiddlefella]

@fractal420 Oh! We were also short .25oz of yeast, so that couldn't have helped.
