Receta BRAIDED CINNAMON BREAD RECIPE
Made from scratch, this Braided Cinnamon Bread just got even better in shape and taste.
You can also use this basic recipe to make a regular cinnamon rolls, dinner rolls, sweet bun, monkey bread, breakfast rolls and many more. Simply filling and shaping the base dough differently can result an entirely new product. I have cut the dough into 2 after shaping them into a log or you can easily turn it into one bigger loaf.
It smells wonderful while baking because of the addition of cinnamon. The dough was easy to work with, no additional flour required for mixing the dough.
Though my shaping wasn't great but this Braided Cinnamon Bread is one of the best cinnamon rolls I ever made! Other bread recipes:
