Sweet Nut Christmas Bread Wreath Recipe

Our  Sweet Nut Christmas Bread Wreath tastes like cinnamon rolls. It's  loaded with warm cinnamon, and ground walnuts, and topped with a drizzle  with a sweet glaze.

INGREDIENTS

– instant yeast – warm water – warm milk – sugar – unsalted butter – kosher salt

STEP 1

In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, combine yeast and warm water. Let it sit for a couple of minutes or until it starts to bubble  approximately 5 minutes.

Mix on low and add the milk, sugar,  butter, salt, cinnamon, and eggs to the yeast. Add two cups of the  flour, one cup at a time. Beat for 2 minutes.

STEP 2

Add remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time until the dough is soft and workable and comes away from the side. Increase mixer speed to medium and knead for 6 to 8 minutes.

STEP 3

Oil a large bowl and add the dough turning  it once to oil both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise in  a warm place until doubled about 90 minutes.

STEP 4

In a medium-sized saucepan combine filling ingredients. Cook until thick. Remove from the stove. If filling gets too thick stir in  additional water.
