CINNAMON BREAD

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the warm water, yeast and a pinch of granulated sugar in a small bowl and let sit until foamy, 5 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the bread flour, remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar and salt in a stand mixer.
• Add the yeast mixture and melted butter to the flour mixture. Knead with the dough hook on medium speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl coated with cooking spray. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Punch down the dough and transfer to a work surface; knead a few times. Cut in half and gently shape into two 3-by-6-inch loaves (do not overwork the dough). Place the loaves 3 inches apart on the prepared pan. Lightly spray the loaves with cooking spray and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until puffy, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Make the topping: Whisk the granulated sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small baking dish. Whisk the melted butter and corn syrup in another small baking dish.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 9-by-5-inch loaf pans with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Cut 4 deep slashes across the top of each loaf (the loaves will look deflated). Dip each loaf in the butter-corn syrup mixture, turning to coat, then coat with the cinnamon sugar, making sure to get the sugar in the crevices. Place the loaves in the prepared pans. Drizzle with any remaining butter mixture and sprinkle with any remaining cinnamon sugar. Bake until light brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Lift the bread out of the loaf pans using the parchment overhang and transfer to a rack. Let cool in the paper, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar, salt, melted butter and 3 tablespoons milk in a bowl until smooth. Whisk in up to 2 more tablespoons milk as needed to loosen. Drizzle on the warm loaves or serve on the side for dipping.

CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a small bowl, mix together 1/3 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon; set aside.
• In large bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining 1 cup sugar. Combine egg, milk, and oil; add to flour mixture. Stir until just moistened.
• Pour half of the batter into pan. Sprinkle with half the reserved cinnamon/sugar mixture. Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon/sugar mixture. Draw a knife through batter to marble.
• Bake in preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Wrap in foil and let sit overnight before slicing.

CINNAMON SWIRL APPLE BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Spray an 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Line the long side of the pan with a parchment paper "sling" and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray again.
• In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon until evenly combined. Set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or beaters, beat the eggs and granulated sugar on medium speed until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.
• With the mixer on low, gradually add the melted butter followed by the milk and vanilla, and mix just until evenly combined.
• Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the batter and mix on low speed until evenly combined.
• Add the apples to the batter and fold with a rubber spatula until evenly incorporated.
• Spoon about ⅔ of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle about ⅔ of the brown sugar-cinnamon mixture on top of the batter. Spoon the remaining batter over top, followed by the remaining brown sugar-cinnamon mixture. Using a butter knife, swirl the layers by making a zig-zag motion through the batter once in each direction (don't overdo it!).
• Bake for about 50 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool on a rack for about 30 minutes, then use the parchment sling to lift the bread out of the pan and onto the rack. Let cool completely before slicing, a few hours or overnight. Store loosely covered with aluminum foil on the countertop for up to 4 days.

SOURDOUGH CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• Using a stand mixer with a bread hook combine water, sourdough starter, olive oil, honey, and salt.
• Slowly add in flour 1 cup at a time beating until well incorporated and the dough begins to pull away from the bowl and form a ball. Keep mixing for an additional 5 minutes. You can also mix by hand in a large bowl and knead for 7 minutes.
• Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap and let double in size. This can take 5-8 hours or longer depending on the temperature in your kitchen and how bubbly your starter is. Let it go till it doubles even if it takes longer than 8 hours.
• Once doubled, place dough on a floured board and cut dough into 3 equal pieces.
• Using a rolling pin, roll your first piece of dough into a large 15" X 6" rectangle.

• Gently braid your two strands one over top of the other until you get to the end.
• Pinch together ends to form into a mini wreath.
• Repeat with the remaining dough pieces. Put onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a good amount of room in between to allow for rising. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Gently coat with an egg wash and bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool for ten minutes before serving.

• Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until lightly golden on top and an inserted toothpick comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. (If bread is browning too quickly, tent with foil for the last 10 to 15 minutes.)
