NO-MESS CINNAMON BREAD IN A BAG

Time 1h40m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray, for the loaf pan
6 tablespoons sugar
One .25-ounce package rapid rise yeast (2 1/2 teaspoons)
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

For the dough: Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray.
Add the sugar, yeast, 1 cup of the flour and 1 cup warm water to a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Press down to remove excess air from the bag. Close the bag tightly and squish the ingredients in the bag until well mixed. Let the bag sit for 10 minutes to activate the yeast.
Add the butter, oil, salt and another cup of flour, close the bag and mix well. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour and mix again until all the ingredients are well incorporated and the dough begins to pull away from the bag.
For the topping: Whisk together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Pour the dough out of the bag onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead the dough until it comes together and is not sticking to the board. Using your fingers, flatten out the dough into a circle about an inch in thickness. Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture on top of the dough. Gently roll the dough (like a burrito) to make the shape of a loaf. Tuck the sides of the dough under to keep the cinnamon mixture inside. Place the dough seam-side down into the prepared loaf pan and cover with a kitchen towel. Let the dough rest and rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Once the dough has risen, remove the towel and bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan.

Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package rapid rise yeast
1 cup warm water
3 tablespoons non-fat dry milk
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons salt

Steps:

In a large resealable freezer bag, combine 1 cup of flour, sugar, yeast and warm water. Squeeze most of the air out of the bag, and seal. Squish with your hands until the well blended. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes at room temperature, or until bubbles appear.
In a separate bowl, stir together 1 cup of flour, dry milk, oil and salt. Pour into the resealable bag and squeeze out most of the air. Seal, and squish until well blended. Add the last cup of flour to the bag, and continue mixing in the same manner until well blended.
Remove the dough from the bag, and place on a floured surface. Knead for 5 to 8 minutes. Form into a small loaf, and place in a greased 8x4 inch loaf pan. Cover with a towel, and allow to rise for about 30 minutes, or until your finger leaves an impression when you poke the top of the loaf gently.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Bake the bread for 35 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown.

Tips:

Choose the right flour: All-purpose flour is a good choice for this recipe, but you can also use bread flour or whole wheat flour. If you use bread flour, your bread will be chewier. If you use whole wheat flour, your bread will be denser and have a nutty flavor.
Use warm water: The warm water will help to activate the yeast and get your bread rising. If you use cold water, your bread will take longer to rise and may not rise as much.
Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your bread tough. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
Let the dough rise in a warm place: The ideal temperature for rising dough is between 75 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. If your kitchen is too cold, you can place the dough in a warm oven with the light on.
Bake the bread until it is golden brown: The baking time will vary depending on the size and shape of your bread. A good rule of thumb is to bake it for about 30 minutes per pound.

Making bread in a bag is a fun and easy way to make homemade bread. It's a great project for kids, and it's also a great way to save money.
