Description

A delicious and sweet twist on classic cinnamon rolls, perfect for breakfast or dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for icing)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix warm milk and yeast; let it sit for 5 minutes.
  2. Add flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, melted butter, and egg to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl and cover; let rise for 1 hour.
  4. Punch down the dough, roll it out, and cut into strips. Twist them and place on a baking sheet.
  5. Let them rise again for 30 minutes, then bake at 375°F for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Mix powdered sugar and milk for icing, then drizzle over warm breadtwists.

Notes

  • Make sure the milk is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  • Allowing the breadtwists to cool slightly before icing gives a nice glaze effect.
