Description

Enjoy the warm and inviting aroma of freshly baked Amish Cinnamon Bread, a delightful treat that embodies simplicity and comfort. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet snack, this easy recipe will bring the cozy taste of tradition into your home.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add melted butter, milk, eggs, and salt. Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  3. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
  4. Punch down the dough and divide it in half. Roll each half into a rectangle on a lightly floured surface.
  5. Brush each rectangle with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture.
  6. Roll up each rectangle tightly and pinch the seam to seal. Place in a greased loaf pan.
  7. Let the rolls rise again for 30 minutes.
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 350Β°F (175Β°C) for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Cool slightly before slicing and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use fresh yeast for the best rise.
  • Warm milk and butter are essential for activating the yeast.
  • Don’t skip the second rise for a light texture.
  • Customize cinnamon and sugar amounts for personal preference.
