I was craving something tasty and needed to switch off for a bit. I didn't feel like going to the supermarket, though. Luckily I always keep the ingredients for these apple cinnamon buns on hand.

Apple Cinnamon Buns

How to make apple cinnamon buns?

Preheat the oven to 190°C
Grind the oats into flour in the blender or food processor. Then add the self-raising flour, together with the cinnamon, the salt and the baking powder.
Then add the Greek yogurt, olive oil, the egg and the honey and stir until you have a smooth batter.
Peel the apple and cut it into small cubes. Then fold the apple cubes into the batter.
Divide the dough into 4 balls on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Shape them into neat little rounds — you don't have to press them as flat as I did in my photos ;-).
Bake the buns in the oven for 20 minutes until nicely golden brown.

I came across the recipe for these apple cinnamon buns online. The buns were originally made with spelt flour; because I wanted to make gluten-free buns, I adjusted the recipe slightly. I also used less egg.

These apple cinnamon buns are wonderful warm from the oven and perfect as breakfast or a snack. They're gluten-free, deliciously moist from the quark and apple, and have a lovely sweet taste from the honey and cinnamon. Serve them on a nice plate and enjoy!
