Cinnamon Sugar Bread, Bread Machine

"This bread is just so good, more like a coffee cake than a bread. I didn't have bread flour, so used regular unbleached, all-purpose flour and took it out about 3 minutes before the beeper because I like a less-crispy crust. Well, what a treat. Major keeper. Not only would I make it again, I think it would make some of the most awesome cinnamon roll dough, and I'm definitely going to try that very soon. I would also suggest using this bread to make Cinnamon Toast Deluxe, recipe #93128. A definite cinnamon extravaganza, and a wonderful treat, especially for those of you who are looking for a stronger cinnamon flavor. "

directions

  • Place ingredients in the bread machine pan in the order suggested by the manufacturer.
  • Bake using the sweet bread setting if your machine has it.
  • If not, use white bread setting.
  • When the bread is done, remove from the machine and let sit on a rack for 10 minutes before removing from the pan.
  • If it sticks, just loosen the sides with a pliable, plastic spatula and it should slip out easily.
  • This makes a 1 1/2 pound loaf that rose really nicely.
  • I did check the dough about 5, 10 minutes into the kneading cycle; if you squeeze a good amount of the dough between your thumb and fingers and it seems a bit moist, and some dough sticks to your fingers, it should be just right; if not, adjust with water or flour accordingly.

Questions & Replies

  1. Do you use bread machine yeast or dry active yeast for this bread recipe?
     
  2. I totally read the comments as * 2 tbs of cinnamon.... * Caught it before I started the mixer and dug out about half. Lets see how this goes over in the morning with the kids! (Husband/dad of 2 teens who just got into cooking the past year!) *Update - It was saved! And awesome! *
     
  3. Is there a 2lb loaf recipe for this?
     
  4. Can this be braided and baked in I venture? How long and what temp if yes
     
  5. Just need to know if Egg has to be a room temperature? A lot of Bread Machine Recipes call for this! This one , however, is not mentioned in the recipe nor instructions! Thanks So Much. Jacqueline

Reviews

  1. This recipe is great. The only thing I changed was I added 2 tsp. of cinnamon. Talk about heavenly when cooking. We have about 15 in of snow right now and I love to bake when it's snowing so this was to be for breakfast in the morning. I could not wait. I ate 2 pieces while still warm w/honey butter on it. It turned out perfect. I put it on the 1 1/2 lb setting and on med for color and sweet bread setting. I will definitely do this again and again
     
  2. I had issues getting this to turn out. It wasn’t mixing all the way. Some of the bread would bake and some would not. Third time around I got it right. I put all the wet ingredients in. Then changed the order for the dry and put the flour in just before the yeast. Also I upped the cinnamon :). Love this bread.
     
  3. Made this yesterday and followed the recipe exactly. It was delicious but I am going to try again tonight with more sugar and cinnamon as the other reviewers suggested. Also I did it on the light crust setting and will try medium tonight.

  4. Its Super Bowl Sunday 2019 and I needed something to balance out all the pizza and beer so what better than cinnamon and sugar !!! Everything went in as written with no substitutions or changes. It didn't stick in the pan and it rose better than anything I've ever baked in the machine before....
     
  5. Oh Thank you! I was looking for a way to make cinnamon rolls the night before (expected to have to roll and bake in the morning.) But this was so much easier and just as good! Definitely adding this to the regular rotation!

  1. I made this tonight, it was just perfect, very soft, i used Quick-Rise yeast (1-1/2 tsp) as suggested by Kittencal,1/3 cup of sugar instead of 1/2, and 1/2 cup of milk + 1/2 cup plain yogurt. Oh and i did add some currants. I will definitely be making this again! Merci !
     
  2. I used half the sugar amount in white and the other in brown. I added a splash of vanilla.
     
  3. 2 tsp vanilla extract Extra Flour until dough came together
     
  4. I used 3 teaspoons of cinnamon; for the sugar, I used 1/4 white and 1/4 brown, I let my egg get room temp...im pretty sure that didnt make a difference, lol...but I keep doing it so that i can get the same taste. For my second loaf my butter didnt reach room temperature and the outcome was extra toasted side edges...this could be unrelated but its the only thing I did differently.
     
  5. This recipe will be my go-to from now on when the family wants cinnamon sweetness. First, The DENSITY IS PERFECT. I used two teaspoons of cinnamon like other reviewers have done, and used my sweet bread setting for a 2lb loaf. I needed a bit more flour than the recipe required (maybe 1-2 Tb) to get the dough rolling right. It's as good as a cinnamon bun without the extra calories, mess, and the extra steps. I think next time, I will use honey instead of the sugar for the low glycemic index value. I will let you know how that turns out.
