Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup margarine
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- Milk
Instructions:
-
Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:
- In a bowl, mix together the cinnamon, sugar, and brown sugar until well combined. Adjust the quantities to achieve your desired sweetness level. Set aside.
-
Prepare Icing:
- In another bowl, pour powdered sugar and gradually add milk, stirring continuously, until the icing reaches a thin consistency perfect for drizzling. Set aside.
-
Thaw Bread:
- Preheat the oven to 200ยฐF (93ยฐC) to create a warm environment for the bread to rise quickly. Simultaneously, bring a pot of water to boil on the stovetop. Once the oven reaches temperature, turn it off. Place the water in an oven-safe dish on the bottom rack. Lightly grease a loaf pan. Place the frozen loaf in the warm oven and allow it to rise for approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
-
Prepare Dough:
- After the bread has risen, remove it from the oven and punch down the dough. Roll it into 1-inch balls.
-
Coat Dough:
- Roll each dough ball in melted butter, then coat generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
-
Assemble Loaf:
- Arrange the coated dough balls in the greased loaf pan, covering the bottom evenly. Continue layering the balls until all are used.
-
Final Rise:
- Return the loaf pan to the warm oven and allow the dough to rise again until it reaches the top of the pan, approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour.
-
Preheat Oven:
- Remove the pan of water from the oven and preheat it to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).
-
Bake:
- Once preheated, place the loaf pan in the oven and bake until the pull aparts are golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
-
Drizzle Icing:
- Let the pull aparts cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle the prepared icing over them while still warm.
