Most of the time is in the rising and advance planning but it`s a small price for the spectacular result. Ingredients: 1 cup fat-free skim milk 1 Tbsp vegetable oil 1 Tbsp sugar 1 tsp table salt 1 Tbsp yeast, about 1 package 2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted, divided 1/4 cup unpacked brown sugar 1/4 cup dark corn syrup 2 tsp ground cinnamon 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg 1 tsp orange zest, grated 1/4 cup raisins, dried cherries or cranberries

Directions: Stir together milk, vegetable oil, sugar and salt in a small saucepan. Heat to lukewarm. Pour yeast over 2 tablespoons lukewarm water and let sit 5 minutes. Stir into milk mixture. Transfer warm milk to a large mixing bowl and beat in half the flour by hand or with an electric mixer. Mix in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Let rest 10 minutes; knead well on a floured board or with an electric mixer and dough hook; let rest 10 minutes. Spray a large, clean bowl with cooking spray, add dough, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Lightly coat a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking pan with cooking spray. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll into a 12 x 10-inch (30 x 25 cm) rectangle. Spray with cooking spray. Stir together brown sugar, corn syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg and orange zest; brush over dough. Sprinkle with raisins. Roll up tightly, like a jelly roll. Cut into 12 pieces. Place buns cut-side up in baking pan. Cover with plastic and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake buns until firm and nicely browned on top, 30 minutes. Cool completely before inverting onto a serving plate. Chef Tips: We renovated Cinnamon Buns by: Substituting fat-free milk for whole milk in the dough. Substituting vegetable oil for shortening and reducing the amount. Using cooking spray instead of butter. Reducing the sugar in the filling.
