In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
In a separate small saucepan, heat the milk until warm (not hot) to touch. Remove from heat and stir in the melted butter.
Add the warm milk and butter mixture to the dry ingredients, followed by the egg. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Once risen, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle approximately 30x40cm.
Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.
Starting from a long side of the rectangle, roll the dough tightly into a log.
Cut the log diagonally into 16 small triangles, each approximately 2.5cm wide.
Shape each triangle into a crescent by gently bending the pointed ends.
Place the crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Bake the gifflar cinnamon rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
