Kirsten’s Cinnamon Swirl Bread


Kirsten’s Cinnamon Swirl Bread

Dough
About 5 c flour
2 1/4 tsp yeast
1 1/3 c milk
3 TB sugar
3 TB butter
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs

Cinnamon Sugar Filling
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp cinnamon

Prepare bread dough as you would your favorite wheat bread recipe. But, before placing dough in the pans for the final rise, divide the dough into 2 parts. Roll out each into a rectangle, brush with water and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar filling. Roll up jelly roll style, pinch off seams and place seam side down in prepared loaf pans. 

Let rise until nearly double (about 30 min.)

Bake 350 for 25-30 min or until bread sounds hollow when tapped. (Cover with foil to prevent over browning.) Remove from pans and cool. You can drizzle a simple cream cheese icing over it if you want, or it's delicious toasted with butter.
