Buttery Cinnamon Pull-Aside Bread {Dollywood Bread Knockoff}

The buttery mushy dough for this cinnamon pull-apart bread is drenched with cinnamon and sugar in each nook and cranny. It’s out-of-this-world scrumptious!

The inspiration for this recipe comes from the extraordinarily in style bread mass produced on the Dollywood theme park by the use of the Grist Mill eatery. With this knockoff recipe, you’ll be able to simply make this well-known cinnamon bread at dwelling!

The way to Make the Simple Cinnamon Bread

The bread dough on this recipe could be very primary and easy.

You should utilize a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook or you’ll be able to combine and knead by hand. If mixing by hand, add a couple of additional minutes to the kneading time.

The dough will probably be mushy and easy and simply barely sticky. It’s actually necessary to not over flour the dough! Add flour simply till the dough clears the perimeters of the bowl.

An Essential Notice About Chopping the Dough

On the Dollywood theme park, the loaves of bread aren’t lower right through into particular person dough items. As a substitute, the highest of the loaf is slashed after which the entire thing is dunked into butter and rolled into sugar (sure, I watched a number of movies in regards to the course of 😆).

Chopping the dough into particular person strips, like we’re doing on this recipe, permits butter and sugar to permeate most floor space of the dough which suggests extra ooey gooey cinnamon sugar goodness in each chew.

Can the dough be lower into thinner strips? (I do know a few of you’re questioning that!) That’s as much as you, however understand that utilizing thicker strips of dough ensures a brilliant mushy, fluffy baked bread. Thinner slices are likely to dry out whereas baking (I do know that from testing completely different variations). This bread is supposed to have lusciously thick and mushy layers, not papery skinny pull-apart layers.

Assembling Cinnamon Pull-Aside Bread

See the photographs above for a useful visible ⬆️

1. Separate the dough into two equal items (the recipe makes two loaves).
2. Flatten each bit right into a thick rectangle.
3. Reduce every rectangle into 5 thick strips.
4. Dip every strip into melted butter.
5. Roll the butter-coated dough within the cinnamon-sugar combination.
6. Tuck every strip into the bread pan in a single layer.
7. Let the bread rise till it noticeably puffy (it’ll attain virtually to the highest of the pan edge) after which bake.

Instantly out of the oven, brush a butter/cinnamon-sugar combination over the recent bread. Because the bread cools, this additional brushing of butter + cinnamon + sugar creates probably the most pleasant candy and buttery crust on high of the bread and drastically boosts the cinnamon taste.

Lastly, as soon as the nice and cozy bread has been turned out, drizzle with a easy glaze and DIG IN. No, like, actually, don’t wait on this. DIG IN NOW.

How is that this bread sooo goood??

That’s the query I hear each time somebody tries this bread.

The fluffy items simply pull aside revealing rivulets of buttery, cinnamon and sugar goodness in all places. Bear in mind, the slices are thick, in order they’re pulled aside, they are often lower or torn by hand into smaller items and shared amongst many.

I imply, or not. 😉 In our home, 5 slices means FIVE SLICES. And it isn’t extraordinary for a loaf of this bread to serve 5…or much less.
