Class: 247 Wool Roll Bread with Cinnamon

Description:

A delicious cinnamon roll version of Wool Roll bread. A soft pillowy milk bread recipe with buttery cinnamon filling
Ingredients:
Half a cup (about 100ml) lukewarm milk
One and a half teaspoons active dried yeast
1 teaspoon honey
200g bread flour (strong white)
half a teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
a quarter cup (about 30g) unsalted butter melted and cooled to lukewarm
1 egg at room temperature
Cinnamon Filling
half a cup (about 50g) dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
a quarter cup (about 30g) unsalted butter (softened)
1. Warm milk in a microwave or in a saucepan. Add the yeast (not easy blend) and honey, whisk until well blended and leave to stand for 5 - 10 minutes until foamy. N.B.(easy blend yeast can be used but should always be mixed in with the dry ingredients before adding the wet mixture
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, yeast mixture, egg and melted butter. Knead or use a dough hook and mixer for 8 - 10 minutes until it forms a smooth ball. Drizzle with a little oil and cover with a tea towel and leave in a warm, dry place for about 1 to 2 hours or until doubled in size.
3. Knock back and divide into four equal pieces. Roll out the dough quite thinly. You need to measure the circumference of your tin and make sure the 4 long sides equal the same length.
4. Make up the filling and spread evenly over the top half of each piece of dough. Cut the bottom half of each strip into thin strands. Roll up to the end of each sliced part. Place each roll, seam down into the greased and lined tin, forming a full circle. Cover again and leave till doubled in size.
5. Brush with milk and place in a preheated oven, Gas mark 4 (170-180C) and bake for 18 -20 minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 to 10 minutes before cooling completely on a wire rack.
