After many failed attempts at cinnamon swirl bread I came up with this one Ingredients:
3 teaspoons yeast |
1 cup warm skim milk (or any other milks really) |
5 tablespoons water, that is warm |
1/3 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1/2 cup melted butter |
3 1/2-4 cups flour (or more or less as needed) |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
extra melted butter |
cinnamon |
sugar |
nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Mix both yeast and water together and proof.
2. mix together sugar, butter, eggs, milk, and proofed yeast.
3. Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and mix well.
4. add the rest of the dough until a stiffish dough forms, cover and let rest for a few minutes then knead for about 5-10 minutes until soft.
5. Cover and let rise until doubled in a greased bowl, punch down and let rise again.
6. Then roll dough out into a rectangle then brush with a little bit of butter.
7. Sprinkle with sugar cinnamon and nutmeg to taste then roll up jelly roll style.
8. Place in a greased bread pan, or cookie tray and bake for 30-45 minutes at 375 F or until when tapped it sounds hollow.
9. Cover if the top is browning too fast, when you take it out of the oven you may brush the top with extra butter to make a softer crust. Also you may freeze the cooked loaf and re heat in oven covered in foil until thawed and it taste just as good.
