This impressive bread looks difficult but it's actually easy thanks to frozen bread dough and purchased granola.
Prep Time:
20 mins
Total Time:
1 hr 30 mins
Servings:
12 servings
Ingredients
-
1 1-pound loaf frozen sweet or white bread dough, thawed
-
2 tablespoons butter, softened
-
3 tablespoons cinnamon sugar*
-
1/2 cup granola cereal (plain or with raisins), crushed
-
1/2 cup chopped almonds or pecans, toasted
Directions
1.
Grease an 8x4x2-inch loaf pan; set aside.
2.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the thawed bread dough to a 10x8-inch rectangle. Spread with 1 tablespoon of the softened butter. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon sugar. Sprinkle with crushed granola and nuts to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Roll up tightly starting from a short side. Pinch seam to seal. Place, seam side down, in prepared pan.
3.
Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (45 to 60 minutes).
4.
Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Bake in preheated oven about 25 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when lightly tapped. Remove from pan to wire rack. Spread with remaining 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar. Makes 12 servings.
Note
Look in the spice section of the supermarket for prepared cinnamon sugar. Or to make your own cinnamon sugar, in a small bowl stir together 3 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
