Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread (With Bread Machine Instructions)

1/11/2013

22 Comments

 
Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread has always been a popular post on this blog, but it has jumped up to most popular post the last two months so I decided to make some updates.  My youngest and I even made a youtube video.  He is so fun to watch in these cooking videos and he loves making them so I'm sure there will be more.

Depending on the size of your bread pan, you may need to split this up among more than one pan.  My old photos on this post were from my favorite old big bread pan, which I can't find since our last move.  I tried baking it in one of my other pans recently to update the pictures for this post and because I have four hungry boys at home (they can consume a loaf of cinnamon bread in no time), but when I crammed it one pan, part of it bulged out of the pan while baking.

This is an old original photo.  Notice how I put some pieces on the side to fit them all in the pan.  You will probably need two pans.

You can also arrange it in a pie pan.  I make it for Christmas morning in the shape of a wreath for the kids which is always festive.  This one is a little more browned than I would like, but there is no perfection right now with the busyness of four boys at home.

This warm sweet bread with a crunchy sugary coating is the best.  The sugar coating reminds me of my favorite indulgence from Panera, the sugar crunch bagel.  
Here he is...my littlest kitchen helper.  My aunt said "he's a hoot" and he is.  He keeps me laughing and keeps me on my toes.  In this video, we show you how to roll out and cut the dough to form the layers that make up cinnamon sugar pull-apart bread.  Enjoy!  
Years ago when I first published this post, I saw this gorgeous recipe at Joy the Baker for Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread.  I was excited to try it, but after reading the recipe I thought I could convert this to a bread machine recipe and save myself some time.  It worked wonderfully in the bread machine.  The dough was easy to work with and the bread was delicious.  If you don't have a bread machine, you can see the original recipe at Joy the Baker.  


Dough Ingredients:

1/3 cup whole milk
4 Tbsp. butter 
1/4 cup warm tap water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3  cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 teaspoons (1 envelope) active dry yeast

Filling Ingredients:

1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
fresh ground nutmeg (optional)
4 Tbsp. butter, melted until browned (It smells like warm caramel.)


1.  Warm milk and butter in a saucepan until butter melts.  Pour this liquid into the bread machine.  

2.  Add the rest of the ingredients in the order listed.  Run the bread machine on the dough cycle for sweet dough.  My machine takes about an hour and a half.  

3.  When the dough is done, roll it out into a big sheet of dough.  

4.  Brush the dough with the browned butter.

5.  Sprinkle with the cinnamon/sugar mixture.  Grate some fresh nutmeg over the dough.

6.  Next, cut the dough into long thin strips.  A pizza wheel works great for this.

7.  Cut the long dough strips into stacks of squares.

8.  Place the dough stacks in a greased bread pan.

9.  Let rise again until almost double in size before baking or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to slow rise and bake for breakfast.  

10.  Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.  Bake bread for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is very golden brown.  The top may be lightly browned, but the center may still be doughy.  Pull apart a couple of pieces and check to see that the bread is done.

This was so easy and yummy! It was nice to use the bread machine that only makes an appearance once a year.

I'm so glad you liked it. I love the bread machine and have been using it a lot. I use it to make all kinds of dough. With three small children, I don't have time to make homemade dough for bread, rolls, breadsticks etc. without the bread machine. I use it at least 3 times a week.

If you opt to put it in the fridge overnight (like in step 9), when you take it out the next day do you have to leave it out to rise, or can it go straight in the oven?

I let the bread sit out on the counter for about 10 minutes or so while the oven is pre-heating. You don't have to let it sit out too long since it continues to rise slowly in the fridge overnight. Make sure to cover it with plastic wrap so that it doesn't dry out in the fridge.

This was delicious! Loved the addition of the nutmeg. I think I might add that to my traditional cinnamon roll recipe! I did have to bake it an extra 10 minutes or so but it was worth the wait! Thanks!

Can you use bread machine yeast where it calls for active dry yeast and just cut the measurements down?

Actually Bread Machine Yeast is probably better. I have never used it, but will buy some now. Since you are not proofing the yeast before putting it in the bread machine, bread machine yeast should be the best choice. I would probably use the same amount as you would have used of active dry yeast. I read somewhere that you could substitute equally bread machine yeast for active dry yeast. I found this info online. "Bread Machine Yeast is specially formulated for bread machines and recommended by most bread machine manufactures. It is finely granulated to hydrate easily when combined with the flour. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is added to promote good loaf volume and structure. Active Dry Yeast may be used but may not yield optimal results." I hope this helps. Let me know how it turns out.
