How to Make Caramel Apple Cinnamon Rolls: A Step-by-Step Guide

Q: Can I use a different type of flour instead of high-gluten flour for these rolls?
A: High-gluten flour is preferred for its elasticity and structure, but you can use all-purpose flour in a pinch, though the texture might be slightly different.

Q: Is it necessary to use fresh yeast, or can I substitute it with dry yeast?
A: Fresh yeast is recommended for its effectiveness in this recipe. If substituting with dry yeast, use a third of the amount specified for fresh yeast.
