This is it. Today we bake together. This thread right here is home base. Post your progress in the comments as you go, your mixing, your rolling, your cutting, the pretty ones and the ugly ones, all of it. Ask your questions here too. I’ll be in and out of this thread all day, coaching, cheering, and answering. You are not baking alone today. Here’s the recipe, yeasted and sourdough, whichever road you’re on: https://pantry.bakinggreatbread.com/recipes/brown-butter-peach-cobbler-cinnamon-rolls THE FLOW FOR TODAY Get your pieces ready. Cold dough. Cooled peach jam with no free liquid. Your cinnamon smear. Streusel out of the fridge and into the freezer 30 minutes before you need it. And a few raw peach pieces set aside for the garnish. Roll it out. Long side facing you, into a rectangle. Leave the bottom inch bare so you can seal the seam. Fill it. Dollop the smear and spread it gentle with your hand, not a tool. Then the peach jam, thin and even. Remember, drain the water, respect the water. Roll and cut. Snug, even log. Pinch the seam and set it seam side down. Trim the ends, then cut 12 rolls with unflavored dental floss. Pan and proof. Big rolls on the outside edges and corners, small ones in the middle. Proof until puffy and just touching. Streusel and bake. Cold streusel on top. If you’re running the heavy cream trick, pour the cream first, then the streusel. Bake at 350F until the middle of the dough reads 190 to 195F, and temp the dough, not a peach pocket. Foil tent if the tops race ahead. Finish. Cool a bit, drizzle the frosting instead of smearing it, and crown it with that raw peach, red side pointing up. Sourdough crowd, if your dough is still finishing its proof, take your time and jump in whenever you’re ready. No rush. We’ll be right here. Now let’s make a mess and make it beautiful. Post those first photos. Show me where you’re starting. I’m in the kitchen with you.

All week we've been taking these Brown Butter Peach Cobbler Cinnamon Rolls apart piece by piece. The dough. The jam. The brown butter. The crumble. The roll-up. The bake. Every little thing that separates a soggy mess from a showstopper. So I pulled it all together into one place for you. I built a full masterclass. Start to finish, every element we covered this week, laid out so you can watch it once and walk into tomorrow's bake calm instead of nervous. Yeasted or sourdough, whichever road you're taking, it's in there. 🍑 Here's what's waiting for you inside it: 1️⃣ The one rule that carries the whole bake, no free liquid. 2️⃣ The dough and the tangzhong that keeps these soft for days. 3️⃣ The cornstarch curve, so your fruit cooks down to a jam and never runs. 4️⃣ How to handle frozen, canned, apples, pears, or berries if peaches aren't your road. 5️⃣ The brown butter sequence, in the right order this time. 6️⃣ The hand-smear, the roll-up, and how to keep it all from sliding out. 7️⃣ The freeze-the-crumble trick, and how long is too long. 8️⃣ The pan strategy, big rolls out, small rolls in. 9️⃣ The heavy cream move for that gooey center. ⏰ Baking to temperature, not to the clock. Watch it tonight if you can. Get it under your belt. Then tomorrow morning, we bake together, and you'll already know every move before your hands are in the dough. This is the one we've been building toward all week. I can't wait to see your kitchens light up tomorrow. Who's baking with me? Perfection is not required. Progress is.

I’m still working on the full bake-along recap, that’s coming, but first I had to show you what I did with my leftover peaches. I couldn’t let them go to waste. So I made a peach cobbler. Not just any cobbler. This one’s got a drop butter biscuit topping, big craggy spoonfuls of buttery biscuit dropped right over the warm peaches. Before it goes in the oven, I brush the tops with cream and give them a good sprinkle of turbinado sugar. That’s what gives you those golden, crackly, sparkling tops with a little crunch in every bite. Soft, jammy peaches underneath, tender biscuit on top. It’s summer in a dish. And here’s the good part. The recipe is already up in the Recipe Pantry, where you can find all our recipes in one place, free and written out step by step: www.recipepantry.app Go pull it up and put those peaches to work while they’re still in season. Perfection is not required. Progress is. Henry ⭐🔥

Let me tell you what that means. Pillowy dough, rolled soft and slow. Inside, peaches roasted down till they’re sweet and jammy, folded through with warm cinnamon. Brown butter running under all of it, nutty and deep, the kind of smell that pulls the whole house into the kitchen before you even call anybody. A brown butter cinnamon crumble baked crisp and golden across the top. Then ribbons of buttercream frosting drizzled over the warm rolls, settling down into every fold. And fresh peaches, scattered right on top, bright and juicy against all that spice. Peach cobbler and a cinnamon roll, together. A piece of Carolina summer you pull apart with your hands. I’m a Southern boy. Down here, peach cobbler is a staple and a delicacy both at once, and taking something I grew up on and folding it into a cinnamon roll we all know by heart, well, that’s my prerogative. That’s what we’re baking this week inside Crust & Crumb Academy. If your mouth is watering right now, good. That’s the whole point. Pull up a chair. ~Henry⭐️🔥

First time, I attempted to bake a cheesy sourdough bread inclusions. I open baked and love the S-Score. The cheese burnt very fast and I even lowered the temperature and covered it with foil, but only helped slightly. Next time, I need to bake it at a lower temperature. I baked 2 and met and made a wonderful friend at a Publix coffee bar this week. He saw my homemade hamburger buns which I gave my friend who works there. He requested me to bake him a cheese sourdough bread. I took his challenge and baked 2 today. I told him about our wonderful Academy and learnt only from the best to bake sourdough bread baker, Chef Henry @Henry Hunter He wanted the link immediately and joined.
