Ingredients

The following ingredients have 20 Servings
  • 2 packages, 1/4 oz. each active dry yeast
  • 1/3 cup warm water
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 5 1/2 to 6 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add milk, sugar, eggs, butter, salt and 2 1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour (3 to 3 1/2 more cups) to form a soft dough.
  • Turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes (You can also knead with a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down; divide in half. Roll each half into an 18-inch x 8-inch rectangle. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 2 Tbsp. cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over dough. Roll up each rectangle from short side; pinch seam to seal. Place seam side down in two greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks. Brush warm loaves with additional melted butter.
  • Enjoy!
