Cinnamon Swirl Bread


Homemade cinnamon bread is easy to make, and SO much cheaper than store-bought.  Use the recipe for basic white bread (or your own favorite white bread recipe) and the dough setting on your breadmaker.  Roll out the dough, sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar, let it rise, and bake it.  Less than 10 minutes of "hands on" time creates a delicious loaf of sweet bread!

Breadmaker White Bread


This recipe came in a booklet with my original breadmaker, and it's still my favorite white bread recipe.  Any recipes that I create for the breadmaker are based on this basic one.  Try it today, and later this week we'll change it up a bit!  

Using Your Breadmaker

Heads up:  If you think you'll be trying some of "my" yeast bread recipes, hop on over to Meijer and pick up a jar each of active dry yeast and bread machine yeast.  It's on price drop until June 10...$3.19 for 4 oz instead of $4.99.  This is a rare occurence, so I bought quite a few jars and I'm freezing them.

Ready to consume some carbs?  Good!  Today, I'm kicking off my June theme:  Bread, Rolls, and Dough.  We'll cover a lot this month, including yeast breads, quick breads, pizza crust, cinnamon rolls, and more.
