Help. Whenever I bake cinnamon rolls I have trouble with the middle rolls in the pan being doughy and the outside rolls being perfect. I bake at 375 for about 20 minutes. When they come out they look beautiful but then sink in the middle and are doughy in the middle. I do not put potato in dough and wondered if that would help. Any thoughts?
Post-ripping, pre-second-bake.
Regarding point #5, its all about managing expectations. Depending on what youre making (and how much you talked it up beforehand), you may not have much lead time before you realize your recipes going south, so sometimes this is unavoidable. For example, if youve been raving about a gigantic cinnamon roll for days and have gotten someone else craving it, having them witness you frantically scurrying around the kitchen in search of your muffin pan might dash their dreams a bit (sorry, B!). Likewise, promising to bring a loaf of banana bread somewhere and showing up with a plate of cookies that suspiciously looked like they contained bananas and chocolate chips might be, well, awkward. So, in the ideal scenario, “Hey guys, I made banana bread biscotti crisps!” sounds a whole lot better than “well, I was going to make a loaf of bread, but then x, y, z happened…”. A whoops indeed (but still better than showing up empty-handed).
Synopsis – I saw this beer in the store. Thought it would be all sorts of clever to use it to make banana bread. Not so.
Most of the time these whoops go undocumented (for good reason), but here are two recipes I resurrected by using a mix of the techniques above.
Food, though…food is a different story. Youve spent money on ingredients, spent time preparing whatever it is that youre making, and seeing both of those things thrown into the garbage is all kinds of frustrating. Plus if youre making something, theres a good chance that youre hungry, and your stomach has already set its expectations accordingly. Having to abandon your plans and start fresh is apt to pitch even the most even-tempered into the throes of hangriness. Look. out.

Can cinnamon be added when baking?
Cinnamon can be added to almost all preparations, depending on personal taste. It can be used in baked goods, cakes, and fruits, and it goes very well with apples.
How to preheat a cinnamon roll?
Place the yeast in the oven for a few minutes to allow it to swell. If the oven lacks these features, you can preheat it for two minutes at the lowest temperature. You must first get used to the concept of yeast rising before you can start working with it. After a while, it will be simple for us to make good cinnamon rolls.
Can cinnamon rolls be refrigerated?
When dough is refrigerated or chilled, the yeast’s activity slows, which causes it to rise at a slower rate. You can keep these in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours without baking them. It is possible to freeze unbaked cinnamon rolls, but the dough may not rise as well when baked in the oven.
