Homemade Cinnamon Sugar Bread

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl combine flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix for 1 minute. Next add water and half of the beaten egg. Mix. Add butter and mix until combined. Knead by hand until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. After that, punch the dough down and divide it into 5 round balls and allow them to rise for 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Now take out each ball and roll them out on a lightly floured surface with a rolling pin until you get a thin disk (diameter 6 inch, thickness 1/4 inch).

4. 4

   Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle evenly over each dough disk.

5. 5

   Next fold the dough in half (folding one half over the other to make a half moon shape). Make 3 incisions in the edges of the dough with a sharp knife. (See photo-you are basically cutting in from the edge of the circle about 1/2 to 1 inch in, towards the flat side of the half moon. Do this 3 times).

6. 6

   Place on a greased baking tray and allow to rise for 35 minutes. Preheat oven to 200 C.

7. 7

   Next brush the remaining beaten egg over the top of the buns. Bake at 200 C for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

8. 8

   Serve and enjoy.
