Surprise someone with a large cinnamon bun—that way, you’ll get more of that delicious filling. One large bun is just right for four people looking for a snack. Feel free to prepare the bun ahead of time and freeze it. In that case, skip the final rising step. Take it out, let it thaw, and let it rise under plastic wrap; brush with egg and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
