Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (500g)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (7g)
- 1 cup whole milk (240ml), warmed
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ cup unsalted butter (115g), melted
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine warm milk and yeast; let sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Mix in melted butter, sugar, and eggs until combined. Gradually add flour and salt until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough: Transfer to a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover with cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size.
- Prepare the filling: Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Roll out the dough: Punch down the risen dough, roll into a rectangle on a floured surface, spread melted butter over it, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly.
- Shape the loaf: Roll tightly from one edge into a log; pinch seams to seal. Place seam-side down in a greased loaf pan.
- Second rise & bake: Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and hollow when tapped on the bottom.
