Cinnamon Burls

Kate Schat
A lighter on sugar cinnamon bun, lovely to enjoy tea or coffee. Cardamom and cocoa add a twist on your average cinnamon and sugar combo.

Instructions
 

  • In a pie plate, mix together sugar, cocoa, cardamom and cinnamon.
  • Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment, silpats or grease them if you dont have either.
  • Roll your bread dough out into a 12" x 30" rectangle.
  • Spread water over all the dough with your hand or a pastry brush.
  • Sprinkle ¾ of the sugar mix over roughly 6"x 30" of the rectangle.
  • Fold the unsugared half over so its now roughly a 6"x30" rectangle.
  • Cut the dough into 1 inch strips.
  • Pick up a strip, twist the dough and then tie it in a knot. Roll it in the pie plate of sugar.
  • Place the knots on a cookie sheet. I prefer to cover the pan with a big plastic bag as a "proofing chamber". You can even use plastic grocery bags.
  • Let rise 30-45 minutes, until doubled.
  • Get your oven preheated to 350F by the time the knots are doubled.
  • Bake the knots for 15-18 minutes, until lightly browned.
  • Make sure to enjoy some fresh and warm!
