Cinnamon Swirl Bread
{Makes 2 Loaves}

-4-3/4 to 5-1/4 cups All Purpose Flour
-1 package Fleischmann's RapidRise Yeast
-1-1/3 Whole Milk
-3 tablespoons Sugar
-3 tablespoons Butter
-1/2 teaspoon Salt
-2 Eggs
-3/4 cup Sugar
-3 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F). Lightly grease two 8x4x2 inch loaf pans. 

Combine 2 cups flour and  undissolved yeast in a mixer. In a saucepan, heat the milk, 3 tablespoons sugar, butter and salt until very warm (120-130 degrees F); stir into flour mixture along with 2 eggs. Beat for 30 seconds at medium speed of mixer while scraping the bowl occasionally. Then beat at high speed for an additional 3 minutes, continuing to scrape the bowl occasionally. Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as possible.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Shape the dough into a ball, place in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease the surface of the dough. Cover and let rise for 10 minutes. Punch dough down and divide the dough in half. Cover and let it rest again for 10 minutes. 

On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough half into a 12x7 inch rectangle. Brush the surface lightly with water. Combine 3/4 cup sugar and 3 teaspoons of ground cinnamon; sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over each rectangle. Beginning at the short end of each rectangle, roll up the dough up tightly. Pinch the seam and ends to seal. Place the loaf, seam side down, into the greased loaf pans. Cover and let the loaves rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Bake in 375 degree (F) preheated oven for 25 to 35 minutes or until done. Immediately remove the bread from loaf pans and cool on a wire rack.

  2. My favorite thing to bake during the Holidays is an old family recipe for Kentucky Boubon Fruitcake. It brings to me feelings of heritage and warm memories of generations gathered by a coal burning stove on a snowy moutain night sipping on hot black coffee and sampling the lovingly soaked cake that took weeks to ripen to perfection. Fruitcake is one part tradition and tree parts love♥

  3. My favorite thing to bake for the Holidays is an old family recipe for Kentucky Bourbon Fruitcake. When baking this I feel my heritage and and years of family gathered around a cozy coal burning stove on a cold snowy mountain night sipping on hot black coffee and sampling gramma's fruitcake. One she carefully soaked with grampa's bourbon until it was laced to perfection. Fruitcake is one part tradition and three parts love. So you see you are really offering someone a little slice of love each time it is served♥
