Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ cup softened butter
- 2 large eggs
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Warm the milk in a saucepan until just warm to the touch (about 110°F). Stir in the yeast and a teaspoon of sugar; let it sit until frothy (5-10 minutes).
- In a large bowl, mix flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture when ready and stir until combined but slightly sticky.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area for about 1 hour.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle (¼ inch thick), spread softened butter over it, and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.
- Roll tightly into a log, slice into 12 equal pieces, place them in a greased baking dish, and let rise again while preheating your oven to 350°F.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Enjoy warm!
