by

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg

Cinnamon Filling:

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Add warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Knead until a smooth dough forms (about 8-10 minutes). Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  2. Make the Cinnamon Filling: In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon.
  3. Shape the Bread: Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread softened butter over the dough and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly. Roll the dough tightly into a log and place it in a greased loaf pan.
  4. Second Rise: Cover and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  5. Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Cool & Serve: Let the bread cool before slicing. Enjoy warm or toasted with butter!
