Description
The Best Cinnamon Sugar Sourdough Bread combines the tangy flavor of sourdough with a sweet cinnamon sugar filling, creating a delightful treat that’s perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
300 grams active sourdough starter active and bubbly
650 grams warm water
1000 grams bread flour
50 grams honey
40 grams olive oil or avocado oil
20 grams fine sea salt
1–2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp flour
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, warm water, honey, and oil, mixing until well combined.
- Gradually add the bread flour and fine sea salt to the mixture, stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 4-6 hours or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
- In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon, brown sugar, and flour. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the seams to seal. Place the log seam-side down in a greased loaf pan.
- Cover the loaf with a damp cloth and let it rise for another 1-2 hours until puffy.
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Score the top of the loaf with a sharp knife for better rising.
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
For extra sweetness, feel free to increase the brown sugar in the filling. Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly for the best results.
