Ingredients

Servings
  • 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 egg room temperature, lightly beaten

FOR THE FILLING

  • ¼ cup raisins optional
  • ½ cup brown sugar lightly packed
  • ½ cup pecans chopped
  • ½-1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup butter softened

FOR THE GLAZE

  • 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. In a small bowl combine the sugar, pecans, raisins and cinnamon.
  4. 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.
  5. Pre-heat oven to 375F/190C.
  6. 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

  1. 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!
