Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 3 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons of active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1/4 cup of water
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, yeast, and salt.
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk, water, and 1/4 cup of butter until warm (120-130°F). Add this to the dry ingredients along with the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes.
- Gradually add the remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let it rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch the dough down and divide it into 64 pieces. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Dip each piece into the melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Stack the coated pieces in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
