2. Roll out a piece of dough into an oval cake. Tip: how to decide which piece of dough to take? It is worth noting that the size of the used piece of dough only approximately corresponds to the size of the future bun, because the product increases in volume during baking. Therefore, a piece of dough should be half the size of the desired size of the finished bun. 
3. Lubricate the resulting cake with melted butter and sprinkle with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Cut with a knife into strips, one edge, leaving intact. 
4. Gently roll into a roll.

15. Roll the resulting workpiece into a roll. 
16. Bend the roll in half, with the seam inward. 
17. Cut into two pieces from the side of the fold, leaving the opposite edge intact. 
18. Unfold both sides to expose the layers of the bun. 
19. The simplest bun is the one that resembles a dove. Roll out a piece of dough into a rope. 
20. Form a knot from the resulting workpiece. Cut the peeking bottom edge, imitating a tail.

32. Put the stuffing inside as you wish. 
33. Transfer all the buns to a baking sheet and leave for 5-10 minutes to proof. Bake at 1800C until golden brown. To make the finished buns sparkle, brush them warm with syrup (dilute 1-2 tablespoons of sugar in 100 ml of water). See how the world famous will cook.

Classic pieces
How to make buns of different shapes? Before answering this question, we should tell you how classic round products are formed. To do this, a piece the size of a fist is pinched off from a rich yeast base, and then it is lubricated with vegetable oil and rolled into a ball. In this form, the semi-finished product is placed in a deep form, and then all other products are laid out there. At the same time, there is no need to leave one or another distance between them. Indeed, after baking, semi-finished products, flavored with oil, depart from each other very well.

Then they spread the filling on it (for example, poppy, thick jam, dried fruits, fruits, nuts, etc.) and tightly wrapped in a roll. After that, the product is cut into pieces. Their thickness should not exceed 4-5 centimeters.
At the end, the formed curls are laid out on a greased sheet or baking sheet and sent to the oven. At a temperature of 200 degrees, they are baked for 52 minutes, and then carefully removed.

Having mastered the preparation of simple pastry dough, you can always prepare excellent air buns- buns with sugar, cinnamon, poppy seeds and other additives. Buns can be in the form of butterflies, snails, curls, hearts.

Stuffing for buns:

How to make buns with sugar from yeast dough
I prepare the dough for buns in the sponge method.
So, we measure 250 ml. milk. 
Milk is the basis for our dough, it should not be hot (at a temperature of 50 C, the yeast dies, we must not allow this). But in cold milk, the yeast will not start working, so we heat the milk so that it is slightly hotter than room temperature.
Our buns will be prepared with pressed yeast, we break off 25 g.
If desired, raw pressed yeast can be replaced with dry instant, in this case, you need to take 7 g of dry yeast.
Knead the yeast with a fork, add 1 tbsp. a spoonful of sugar. 
We send half a teaspoon of salt to the dough for dough. The resulting mixture is crushed with a fork. 
Add warm milk to the bowl. 
Yeast should disperse well in milk. Mix into a homogeneous liquid mass. 
Add flour to the resulting mixture (3 tablespoons).
All flour that will be used for yeast dough must be sifted beforehand. This will saturate the flour with air and make the dough more tender and airy.
So, stir the mixture with flour, we get a blank for dough. 
We remove the dough in a warm place without drafts for 20-25 minutes. Can be covered cling film or a clean towel.
How to cook can be found in a separate article.
How to make bun dough
While the dough reaches the lush foam we need, we will break the egg. 
The remaining sugar (2 tablespoons) is added to the egg, rubbed. 
It is not necessary to beat the egg with sugar until fluffy foam, just stir until smooth. 
Pour vegetable oil (110 g) into the dough. This is about half of an ordinary faceted glass. 
Now we need our dough, which by this time has increased in size. 
Note: The dough recipe can be used to make delicious and other pastries.
Mix the dough and start adding flour in parts. A small part was added - stirred. Again added - stirred. In total, you should have 3.5 cups of flour. But, given that everyone's flour is different - you may need a little more or a little less. Focus on the consistency of the test. 
At first, the dough for yeast buns will look like this. 
Then it will be difficult to knead with a spatula or spoon and you will have to put everything aside, move on to kneading the dough with your hands. 
When the dough becomes thick, spread it on a surface sprinkled with flour and start kneading with your hands. You need to knead for about 10-12 minutes, until the dough becomes plastic. The dough will be sticky, this is normal. Even if it sticks to the hands a little, there is nothing to worry about.
Of course, we can achieve a result with the help of flour so that the dough does not stick to our hands at all, but in this case we will get a dense dough clogged with flour, which in ready-made pastries will not be airy, but heavy.
Then put the dough in a bowl, grease it on top with a palm dipped in vegetable oil, cover with a towel and clean in a place without drafts for 1.5 hours.
After the allotted time, the dough will increase in size, you need to knead it and send it to the refrigerator for another 2 hours. 
We spread the dough that has risen well on a surface sprinkled with flour (or greased with vegetable oil).
The dough needs to be divided by the number of buns you plan. With this amount, I get 8 large buns. They get big and fluffy. So we first divide the dough into two equal parts, then each of the two parts into two more pieces.
We divide each part by two more, we get 8 blanks for buns.
One part of the dough will be one bun, and the shape can be made very different - in the form of hearts, snails, butterflies.
The most popular and romantic are heart-shaped buns.
Buns with a heart
Heart-shaped buns are very reminiscent of a Soviet-era bun called Moskovskaya bun (by the way, they are still sold in stores).
Making a heart out of dough is easy! Follow my step by step instructions.
So, a piece of dough from our blanks is rolled into a circle. If you don’t get the shape of an even circle, it doesn’t matter, the heart from the dough will still come out wonderful. 
Now grease the entire surface of the dough with melted butter with a brush.
Butter can be replaced with vegetable oil according to your taste.
Sprinkle with sugar (you can use cinnamon or brown sugar). I will use regular sugar.
In the photo it may seem that sugar is poured in a pile in one place, in reality the sugar is distributed evenly over the entire surface.
For better indentation of sugar, you can run a rolling pin over the dough. 
We begin to roll the cake into a roll. 
We pinch the edge of the roll so that the dough does not disperse. 
Now fold the roll in half and lightly pinch the edge. 
With a sharp knife we cut through the “puffy” part of the roll, not reaching 1.5 cm to the edge.
Now we turn the cut edges inside out, we get a heart.
In finished form, the bun looks like this:
Butterfly buns
Butterfly-shaped buns are very fond of children. You can involve the kids in making them: roll the dough into rolls, grease the surface of the dough with oil with a brush - even a child can do it, and the pleasure will be over the edge!
To make butterfly buns, we do the same steps, roll out the cake, grease with oil, sprinkle with sugar, then roll up the roll, pinch it ..
We turn the edges of the roll “under ourselves” and fasten it, as shown in the photo:
Using a knife, cut the edges of the roll on each side, not reaching the middle of the roll.
We open the wings of a butterfly with the inside facing us.
On the Internet great amount ideas of what shape to make buns and buns. One has only to try once - and a variety of spirals, snails, hearts, butterflies and pigtails will appear on your table. Experiment and delight your loved ones! 
Now put the buns on a baking sheet covered with parchment, cover with a towel and let them rest for 15-20 minutes. Before baking, grease with yolk mixed with milk and send to the oven at 180 C.
The oven must be preheated.
After 20 minutes, the buns are ready!
