Instructions
 

Bread

  • Bring the milk to 37°C, dissolve the yeast into the milk and wait for 5 minutes before it activates. If it doesn't, try one more time. Throw out the yeast if it fails to activate a second time.
  • Add the sugar, egg and the bread flour. Knead for 3 minutes.
  • Add salt and plain flour and knead another 3 minutes.
  • Add the butter and knead until it passes the window pane test. If you are making bread and don't know what window pane test is, suggest you google it. :)
  • Roll out the bread into a 40cm x 40 cm square.
  • Spread the butter, sugar evenly on the bread dough, sprinkle cinnamon over this.
  • Swiss roll it up.
  • Cut into 9 equal pieces.
  • Heat oven to 205°C.
  • Cover the dough and prove it until it doubles its size. I left it where the sun shines into our kitchen.
  • It took about 30 minutes for my bread to prove to the desired size.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the icing, which is combining the sugar and milk together without using any heat.
  • When bread is done, unmould and then drizzle topping over bread.
  • Enjoy one before all of them disappear!
