Ingredients
- 3¼ cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup butter (softened) cubed
- ½ teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter then add ¾ teaspoon salt)
- 1 tablespoon quick rise yeast
- ¾ cup milk (whole or 2%)
- 2 large eggs (room temperature lightly beaten)
FOR THE FILLING
- ¼ cup raisins (optional)
- ½ cup brown sugar (lightly packed)
- ½ cup Chopped Pecans
- ½-1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup butter (softened)
FOR THE GLAZE
- 1 large egg yolk (room temperature)
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Soak the raisins (if using) in boiling water, rum or even orange juice for approximately 15 minutes, drain and gently dry with a paper towel, set aside.
- In a food processor or stand mixer whisk together the flour, salt, sugar and yeast, add the butter and combine for 30 seconds, alternately add the eggs and milk, mix to form a dough. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover and let sit 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl combine the sugar, pecans, raisins and cinnamon.
- Roll the dough into a 12x9 inch (30x23cm) rectangle, spread with the softened butter leaving a ½ inch border, sprinkle with the sugar mixture over the butter. Roll up from the long side, pinch the ends together to seal, place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, cover with a clean tea towel and let rise in a warm draft free area for one hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 375F/190C.
- Brush the loaf with the glaze, and bake for 15 minutes, cover the loaf with foil and continue to bake for 15-20 minutes or until done (internal temperature 190F). Move immediately to a wire rack to cool before serving. Dust with powdered sugar before slicing if desired. Enjoy!
FOR THE GLAZE
- In a small bowl beat together the egg yolk and milk.
Notes
- Store: While this cinnamon bread is best fresh out of the oven, you can store it in an airtight container or ziptop bag at room temperature up to 5 days.
- Freeze: You can either freeze the whole loaf or slice and freeze the slices. It can be toasted from frozen!
- This bread is delicious toasted and buttered!
