@favoredflavorsfl: When I talk about hydration, I’m only counting free liquid. That means milk, water, buttermilk, anything you pour. Some bakers count eggs and melted butter too, which changes the number completely. So when you compare two recipes, make sure you’re comparing the same thing. High hydration dough is also way harder to work with. It’s sticky, it’s soft, and it will test your patience if you’ve never handled it before. And you can’t just pour extra milk into the recipe you already have and call it high hydration. Every ingredient in your dough has a job. Change one and the others have to adjust with it, or you’ll end up with a sticky mess instead of a fluffy roll. Learn what each ingredient does before you start tweaking! Want to skip the trial and error? My Cinnamon Roll Guide has my full recipe, plus gluten-free, vegan and dairy-free versions.
