I am a crazy crazy fan of Cinnamon buns ... tried it for the first time ever after i got to Dubai and I am in love with it ever since... have always wanted to try making them but when I see the recipe and for the amount of effort and time it calls for i realise it doesn't fit into my not so scheduled day with my kiddo around so I need to satisfy my craving to bake something by making something that is fast.
This recipe of the cinnamon swirl bread is really simple and all it needs is a bowl and a wooden spoon so there's no worry that your baby's sleeping and you cant use the mixer . Just throw it all in, mix, bake and voila !!!!
I stumbled across this recipe a while ago and had saved it up... I somehow never tried it and now i am not able to trace the source of the recipe either..
Its got a crumbly top and the bread inside is soft and the cinnamon flavour burst in your mouth is wonderful. The recipe has a glaze but i didn't do it. I felt like its not really needed, but if i had to glaze the bread i'd rather use the cream cheese glaze on it .. I love how cream cheese and cinnamon go along... The bread by itself is not very sweet but just enough. Its perfect with a cup of coffee.
