Cinnamon Burst Bread


Cinnamon Burst Bread

1 Tbls yeast
2 Tbls sugar
1 cup very warm water
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 Tbls oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 c cinnamon chips
3 1/2 - 4 cups flour

Combine in mixing bowl 1 cup flour, yeast, and sugar. Add water, egg, and oil. Beat well to “cake batter” stage. Stir in salt, cinnamon bites, and 2 more cups flour to make bread-dough consistency. Let mixer knead it to the right texture (add more flour if needed).

Place dough in greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour. Shape dough into loaf.

Let rise for another hour or until doubled. Bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes. Slice thick and serve warm with butter, or toast slices in the toaster, or make slices into French Toast. Yummy!
