KALACS (HUNGARIAN CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD)



Kalacs (Hungarian Cinnamon Swirl Bread) image

My husband's aunt passed along this super-easy recipe for this Hungarian sweet bread, and I made a couple of revisions to my family's taste. Cinnamon, poppy seed, or walnuts are a traditional filling. Her recipe is for cinnamon, but one of my favorite ways is to break from tradition and use a cocoa/sugar/butter/vanilla mixture. It's delicious, especially when the leftovers are toasted and buttered!

Time 3h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
1 egg
¼ cup melted butter
1 ¼ cups warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
melted butter for brushing
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅓ cup brown sugar

Steps:

  • Place flour, white sugar, salt, and yeast into the bowl of a stand mixer. In a bowl, whisk together egg, melted butter, warm milk, and vanilla extract; pour into the flour mixture.

Tips:

  • Make sure your butter is cold and firm before using it. This will help to create flaky layers in your bread.
  • When measuring your flour, be sure to spoon it into the measuring cup and level it off with a knife. Do not scoop the flour directly from the bag, as this can result in too much flour being used.
  • Be careful not to overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough and dense.
  • Allow the dough to rise in a warm place, free from drafts. This will help the dough to rise properly.
  • Before baking, brush the tops of the buns with melted butter. This will help to create a golden brown crust.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon spiral bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky layers, sweet cinnamon filling, and gooey glaze, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
