Cinnamon Swirl Bread That Actually Works!

After many failed attempts at cinnamon swirl bread I came up with this one

SERVES 10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix both yeast and water together and proof.
  2. 2
    mix together sugar, butter, eggs, milk, and proofed yeast.
  3. 3
    Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and mix well.
  4. 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. 5
    Cover and let rise until doubled in a greased bowl, punch down and let rise again.
  6. 6
    Then roll dough out into a rectangle then brush with a little bit of butter.
  7. 7
    Sprinkle with sugar cinnamon and nutmeg to taste then roll up jelly roll style.
  8. 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. 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.

This makes a very light dough. Had no trouble rising in 30 minutes. If you're using a loaf pan, you'll need two — no way this can fit in one pan. I used about 1/4 c. butter and 1/3 c. cinnamon/sugar mix for the two loaves. Delicious cinnamon bread!

    This is a great bread recipe. Since others said it made a big loaf, I made two loaves out of it and baked them in loaf pans. this turned out well. I baked them for 30 minutes, covering with foil for the last 10 minutes. I used 1 cup brown sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon for the filling. This is such a moist bread. Very good!

    This bread tastes like cinnamon buns. It's so moist. And it smell great while baking. I got a long bread. Maybe I did my rectangle a bit too long. I did the bread in my bread machine and I used the 4 cups of flour. Thanks Anme. Made for Please Review My Recipe.

    Good bread! I'm not sure why, but my loaves got huge. I made two batches, letting the dough rise the second time overnight in the fridge, for Christmas morning (one with raisins for my husband), and they nearly overwhelmed their pans (and they dripped cinnamon goodness in my oven). I also covered the bread after 20 minutes, and ended up baking them for about an hour set at 350 (but my oven runs hotter than it claims), and like diner524 found, they still could've used another 10 or 20 minutes. Thanks, Anme!
