easy cinnamon swirled bread
This easy yeast cinnamon bread has a lot of cinnamon gooey goodness. Frozen bread dough is what makes this so easy! My family loves a lot of cinnamon but you can reduce the amount to your liking! I wanted a cinnamon swirl bread that didn't take a lot of hands on time and didn't dirty a lot of dishes! That is how this recipe was born!

How To Make easy cinnamon swirled bread
-
Step 1The night before, place frozen dough loaf in fridge according to package directions.
-
Step 2Morning of cooking, mix together the sugars and cinnamon.
-
Step 3Roll out dough on floured surface until it is about 1/4 in thick.
-
Step 4Brush dough with melted butter. Evenly sprinkle with sugar mixture to liking, reserving about 1-2 tablespoons.
-
Step 5Starting with a long edge roll up. Pinch together to seal and pinch and tuck ends under.
-
Step 6Brush rolled up dough with butter. Sprinkle with reserved sugar mixture.
-
Step 7Fold in half over itself to make a shorter loaf. Pinch seam all the way around and pinch and tuck end.
-
Step 8In a greased loaf pan, squish dough to fit evenly in pan. Cover with plastic wrap that is sprayed with nonstick spray.
-
Step 9Place in warm place and let rise until doubled in size.
-
Step 10Bake in preheated 350°f oven for 20-30 minutes (depending upon your oven),, until top is dark brown but not burnt.
-
Step 11Turn off oven and let sit in oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Remove from pan immediately and place on a cooling rack.
-
Step 12Let rest for at least 30 minutes before cutting. I cut into thick slices, placing loaf on its side to make cutting easier with a serrated knife.
-
Step 13Note: this is very heavy with cinnamon flavor, you can adjust the amount of cinnamon to your liking.
