Best 7 Honey Wheat Cinnamon Swirl Bread Recipes

WHOLE-WHEAT CINNAMON-RAISIN BREAD

Steps:

• Make the dough.
• Measure out 1 1/4 cups very warm water and check the temperature; it should be 120 degrees F to 130 degrees F. Combine both flours, the dry milk, egg, canola oil, honey, salt, yeast and warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix 3 minutes on the lowest setting, then increase to the next highest setting and mix 5 more minutes. The dough should be soft and sticky.
• Let it rise.
• Transfer the dough to a large bowl coated with cooking spray. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until the dough has nearly doubled in size, about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
• Soak the raisins.
• Dry raisins will rob moisture from the bread, so soak them first in boiling water until plump, about 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Fold the dough.
• Transfer the dough to a floured work surface. Picture it as a loose square. Lift up one side of the dough and fold about one-third of it across; press down on the dough with spread fingers to remove any air bubbles. Repeat with the remaining 3 sides of the dough.
• Add the filling.
• Mist two 9-by-5-inch loaf pans with cooking spray. Divide the dough in half; roll out each half into an 8-inch square. Brush each square with canola oil, then sprinkle with the cinnamon (it's high in antioxidants!), brown sugar and raisins.
• Form the loaves.
• Roll up each square of dough into a tight cylinder; place seam-side down in the prepared pans. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until the dough fills the pans and springs back when touched, about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
• Bake the bread.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush the loaves with canola oil and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the pans and transfer to a rack to cool completely.

SOURDOUGH CINNAMON RAISIN SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• Starter/Levain Build
• Mix the starter, flour, and water in a jar. Mark the level with a rubber band and let ripen overnight. Use cold water and/or a higher feeding ratio in summertime so the levain doesn't finish all the food before morning.
• Final Dough Mixing and Bulk Fermentation
• Measure out the raisins and soak them in water while the dough rises.
• Mix the flours, water, levain, brown sugar, oil, salt, and 1 tsp of the cinnamon in a medium bowl. Cover and let rest 30 minutes.
• Do one round of stretching and folding, or another form of gluten development.
• Let the dough rise at room temperature until it has just about doubled in size. This can take anywhere from 4 to 10 hours depending on your starter strength and room/dough temperature. My dough needed 6.5 hours in a cool kitchen.
• Shaping and Final Proof
• Drain the raisins, lightly flour your work surface, and grease your loaf pan.
• Remove the dough from the bowl, and stretch and pat it out into a rectangle approx. 7" x 12". Sprinkle the remaining 3 tsp of cinnamon on the dough, and then add the drained raisins in a layer on top of the cinnamon.
• From a shorter edge, roll the dough into a tube and place it in your pan, seam-side down.
• Cover and proof the dough for 2-4 hours. You can also retard the dough overnight or longer, but make sure it has risen in the pan some at room temperature before refrigerating it. The dough is ready to bake when it has doubled or its highest part crests about a half-inch over the lip of a 9" x 5" x 2.75" pan.
• Baking
• Preheat your oven to 375°F for about 15 minutes with your oven rack in the second-from-the-bottom position.
• Brush the dough with water and load it into the oven.
• Bake for about 60 minutes or until the interior of the loaf is over 190F. Cover with foil if the top starts to brown too much.
• When the bread has finished baking, brush the top with oil or butter to keep it soft, and let it cool on a rack on one side to discourage settling of the crumb.
• You can store this bread in a plastic bag, beeswax wrap, or linen bag.

CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix the yeast with water in one cup measuring cup and stir until it bubbles. Set aside for 5 minutes.
• In large mixing bowl mix together the milk, oil, sugar, salt, eggs, oats, and 2 cups of the flour (mix by hand or with a bread mixer). Then add in the yeast/water mixture to it and stir. Add the remaining 5-6 cups of flour and stir.
• Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes until smooth. Form into a ball and set in a greased bowl. Turn dough to coat.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
• Punch down and take the dough out of the bowl and lay it on your kneading surface.
• Place the bowl over the dough and let it rest 10 minutes. Divide the dough in half and roll it out (we rolled the dough out to be the length and 2-3 times the width of the bread pans we were using).
• Brush the dough with melted butter.
• Mix together the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle half of the cinnamon/sugar mixture on top (the kids loved helping with this part).
• Roll up the dough tightly and place it in your greased loaf pan (we used 2 large 5" x 10" pans). Repeat those steps with the second half of the dough. Let them rise, covered with plastic wrap or towel for 45 minutes.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes (more or less depending on your oven) at 375 degrees. When the bread comes out of the oven, brush it with a little milk or melted butter and cool on a wire rack.
• Wait for it to cool a little before slicing.
