Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm milk
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk (for icing)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix warm milk and yeast; let it sit for 5 minutes.
- Add flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, melted butter, and egg to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
