Tips
- Toast cornmeal and brown butter. Let the cornmeal brown butter mixture sit overnight to saturate. This creates a crumble topping for the cinnamon rolls. The cornmeal topping is a nostalgic flavor that is similar to graham cracker. The cornmeal topping symbolizes the cornmeal crust on country-fried foods.
