Johnson further simplified some of his recipes by eliminating equipment that might be necessary for the original recipe. His cinnamon roll recipe, for example, which makes just four, is done entirely by hand. All said, 2020 may have been the year that got more people baking, but it was also the beginning of a mini trend: small-batch baking.
