Instant Yeast 2 teaspoons
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
Warm Milk 1 cup
Butter 1/4 cup, melted
Eggs 2, beaten
Brown Sugar 1 cup
Ground Cinnamon 2 tablespoons

Take note
Be cautious when handling hot ingredients and sharp tools. Ensure that the wreath is thoroughly cooled before serving to avoid burning yourself. Always follow proper oven safety guidelines.

1

Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of instant yeast, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.

2

Add the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of warm milk, 1/4 cup of melted butter, and 2 beaten eggs. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients while stirring continuously. Mix until a dough forms.

3

Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle a little flour; if it's too dry, add a small amount of milk.

4

Let the Dough Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

5

Prepare the Filling

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of softened butter, 1 cup of brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

6

Shape the Wreath

Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release any air bubbles. Roll it out into a large rectangle on a floured surface. Spread the prepared filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Carefully roll the dough into a long log.

7

Form the Wreath

Shape the log into a circle, connecting the ends to form a wreath. Place the wreath onto a greased baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

8

Let it Rise Again

Cover the wreath with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise for another 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until it becomes puffy and nearly doubles in size.

9

Bake the Wreath

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the wreath has risen, bake it in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and is cooked through.

10

Glaze the Wreath

While the wreath is still warm, brush it with a generous amount of cream cheese glaze or your preferred icing. Allow it to cool slightly before serving.
