In a saucepan, heat up the milk, butter and maple syrup until it reaches just under 100°F. Remove from the heat and whisk in the yeast. Let it proof.
Mix the dry ingredients together in a stand mixer and pour in the yeast mixture. Mix until well combined.

Shape the dough into 2oz ball portions and roll them out on a well floured surface - the dough will be sticky.
Fry on both sides until golden brown, then place on a paper towel lined plate to let cool for a few seconds. When it’s cool enough to touch, coat in the cinnamon/sugar mixture.
