A thin layer of butter carries the cinnamon and brown sugar through every spiral, while the hot oven melts the filling into a lightly caramelized base and sets the pastry before it can dry out.
Store completely cooled rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Separate layers with parchment.
Warm individual rolls in a 160°C oven for 6 to 8 minutes, or microwave briefly for 10 to 15 seconds; avoid overheating, which makes the pastry tough.
