Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup whole milk, warmed
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup brewed coffee
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk (about 110°F), yeast, and sugar. Let sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- Mix in flour, melted butter, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area until doubled in size (approximately 1 hour).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, and cut into strips to form knots or twists.
- Place knots on parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
- While cooling slightly, whisk together powdered sugar and brewed coffee for icing consistency. Drizzle over warm knots before serving.
