morning bun

Cinnamon breakfast roll

A morning bun is a spiral pastry made from croissant-like laminated dough, typically coated in cinnamon sugar and sometimes orange zest.

Unlike a cinnamon roll, which uses enriched bread dough and cream cheese frosting, a morning bun has flaky, buttery layers and a lighter texture: I grabbed a morning bun and a coffee on my way to work.
