In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, honey, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.

Create a well in the center of the flour mixture, then add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until a soft dough begins to form.

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.

Once risen, punch down the dough and shape it into small balls. Arrange them in a greased baking pan.

Cover and let them rise again for 20-30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

While the buns are baking, combine honey, sugar, and optional cinnamon in a small bowl for the glaze.

Once baked, drizzle the honey glaze over the warm buns and serve immediately.
