Each bite is a blissful combination of soft, buttery bread and an irresistible cinnamon-sugar swirl, making it a fan favorite for anyone with a sweet tooth. But guess what? You donā€™t need to book a trip to Tennessee to enjoy this delightful treat! With just a few ingredients and some love, you can recreate this magical bread right in your own kitchen. šŸŽ‰ Ready to turn your home into a cozy bakery? Letā€™s get started!


Ingredients Youā€™ll Need

For the Dough:

  • 1 cup warm milk (110Ā°F) šŸ„›

  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet) šŸŒŸ

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar šŸ¬

  • 1/4 cup melted butter šŸ§ˆ

  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil šŸŒæ

  • 1 tsp salt šŸ§‚

  • 2 large eggs šŸ„š

  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (approximately) šŸŒ¾

For the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar šŸ­

  • 2 tbsp ground cinnamon šŸŒ°

  • 1/4 cup melted butter šŸ§ˆ





Letā€™s Get Baking! šŸš€

Prepare the Dough:

  • Start by dissolving the yeast in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothyā€”this is your sign that the yeast is alive and kicking! šŸ„³

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, melted butter, vegetable oil, salt, and eggs. Stir well until everything is fully incorporated.

  • Gradually add the yeast mixture to the bowl.

  • Slowly incorporate the flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft, non-sticky dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, add a bit more flour until itā€™s just right. šŸ’Ŗ

  • Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until itā€™s smooth and elastic.

  • Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size. This is where the magic begins! ā³





Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:

  • In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. šŸ­āœØ

  • Brush the dough generously with melted butterā€”because, letā€™s face it, more butter equals more yum!


Shape the Bread:

  • Punch down the risen dough to release the air and divide it into two equal parts.

  • Roll each part into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.

  • Brush the dough with melted butter, then sprinkle it generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture.

  • Roll up the dough tightly from one of the long sides to form a log.

  • Slice each log into 8-10 pieces and place them in greased loaf pans, cut side up. These slices will bake up into fluffy, swirled perfection.


Final Rise:

  • Cover the loaf pans with a damp cloth and let the dough rise for another 30 minutes. This gives the bread a final boost before baking. ā²ļø


Bake the Bread:

  • Preheat your oven to 350Ā°F (175Ā°C).

  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through. Your kitchen will soon be filled with the heavenly aroma of cinnamon and sugarā€”pure comfort in every scent! šŸ˜


Optional Glaze:

  • For a little extra indulgence, mix 1 cup powdered sugar with 2 tbsp milk to create a sweet glaze. Drizzle this over the warm bread for a touch of dreamy sweetness. āœØ





Enjoy the Magic! āœØ

Now that your kitchen smells like a slice of heaven, itā€™s time to slice into that homemade cinnamon bread and savor every delicious bite. Whether youā€™re enjoying it fresh out of the oven, toasted with a pat of butter, or paired with a cup of coffee, this bread is sure to bring a little piece of Dollywoodā€™s magic to your home. šŸ’–
