SHAPING THE DOUGH
To shape the dough, all that is necessary is to knead the risen dough lightly on.
a very lightly floured surface, sprinkling it lightly with more flour in any.
spots that are very wet. Then, roll it into a rectangle and cover the rectangle.
with a thin layer of softened butter.
Then, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar filling on top and press it down to help it.
adhere to the dough. Roll the dough tightly, tucking the ends under and.
squeezing lightly as you go.
THE FINAL RISE
With the seam side down, lift the dough into a loaf pan, cover it with oiled.
plastic wrap, and set the pan in a warm, draft-free spot to allow it to rise. It.
won’t double in size, as it might in the refrigerator, but should be about 150%.
of its original size, as it was shaped in the loaf pan.
Keep in mind that yeast will double and dough will rise on its own timetable. If.
your environment is on the cooler side, it will take longer to rise. If it’s.
warmer, it will rise more quickly.
Overproofing, where the dough rises too much, is not caused It’s caused Respect its process. :).
SLASH AND BAKE
Once the dough has risen, uncover it and slash it down the center with a lame or.
sharp knife, which will allow the dough to split where you want it to during.
baking. Otherwise, it will decide where to split, and it might not be very.
Brush the top of the risen and slashed dough with an egg wash, and bake. We use.
a relatively low oven (325°F) so that the bread can bake all the way to the.
center and the bottom without burning. After 45 minutes of baking, we’ll.
transfer the bread out of the pan and onto a baking sheet for its final minutes.
in the oven. That will allow the oven air to circulate around the sides of the.
dough. Then, cool and slice.

INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTIONS
Buttermilk powder: I really like using buttermilk powder in baking, since I find.
that it adds richness and tenderness to baked goods. The brand I use is Saco. It.
comes in a little round paper container with a lid and can be found in the.
baking section of most grocery stores, at least in my part of the U.S.
If you can’t find buttermilk powder, you can use nonfat dry milk powder in its.
place. It doesn’t add as much richness, but the recipe will still work.
Dairy-free: If you need to make this recipe dairy-free, you’ll have to replace.
the buttermilk powder in the dough, and the butter in both the dough and the.
filling. In place of the buttermilk powder, you can try using powdered coconut.
In place of the butter in the bread dough, try using Earth Balance buttery.
sticks or virgin coconut oil. In place of the butter in the filling, you will.
need to use something that doesn’t have too much moisture or the filling will.
leak a ton. Try using virgin coconut oil or Spectrum nonhydrogenated vegetable.
Egg-free: There are two egg whites in the bread dough recipe. I haven’t tried.
replacing them, and I’m afraid I’m really not sure what, if anything, would work.
in their place. In the past I’ve suggested trying aquafaba (the brine from a can.
of chickpeas), but readers have reported poor results overall. The egg in the.
egg wash can easily be replaced with cream alone.
Tapioca starch/flour: The addition of tapioca starch/flour to the bread dough.
helps make it stretchy and tender. In its place, you can try using another.
starch, or just more all purpose gluten free flour.
but neither will give the same results.

FOR THE BREAD DOUGH
3 cups (420 g) all purpose gluten free flour blend.
plus more for sprinkling (I used Better Batter; please click thru for full.
info on appropriate blends).
1 ½ teaspoons xanthan gum, (omit if your blend already contains it).
¼ cup (36 g) tapioca starch/flour.
⅝ cup (43 g) cultured buttermilk blend powder, (or nonfat dry milk).
1 tablespoon (9 g) instant yeast.
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar.
¼ teaspoon baking soda.
1 tablespoon (13 g) packed light brown sugar.
1 teaspoon kosher salt.
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar.
2 tablespoons (28 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature.
2 (50 g) egg whites, at room temperature.
1 ⅝ cups (13 fluid ounces) warm water, (about 95°F).
FOR THE FILLING
3 tablespoons (36 g) granulated sugar.
3 tablespoons (40 g) packed light brown sugar.
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.
1 tablespoon (9 g) tapioca starch/flour.
2 tablespoons (28 g) unsalted butter, at very soft room temperature.
1 egg, any size, beaten with 1 tablespoon milk (any kind) or cream.
First, make the bread dough.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, place the.
flour, xanthan gum, tapioca starch/flour, buttermilk blend, yeast, cream of.
tartar, baking soda, and brown sugar, and whisk to combine well, breaking up.
any lumps in the brown sugar. Add the salt, and whisk again to combine.
Add the apple cider vinegar, butter, egg whites, and water, and mix to.
combine well. Turn the mixer speed up to medium-high and then high speed and.
beat until the dough almost seems whipped. The dough should pull away easily.
from the sides of the bowl when you use a silicone spatula to scrape it down.
Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl or proofing bucket large enough.
for the dough to rise to nearly double its size.
Spray the top of the dough very lightly with cooking oil spray. Cover the.
bowl very tightly with an oiled piece of plastic wrap or the oiled top of.
your proofing bucket.
Place the dough in the refrigerator for at least an hour and up to 24 hours.
When you are ready to shape and bake the bread, grease an 8 1/2-inch x 4.
1/2-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
Place all the filling ingredients except the butter in a small bowl, mix.
well, and set aside. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and turn it out.
onto a lightly flour surface.
Turn the dough over on itself, sprinkling it lightly with more flour as.
necessary to prevent it from sticking. Use a large rolling pin to roll the.
dough into a thick 7-inch x 12-inch rectangle, still sprinkling very lightly.
with more flour as necessary in sticky spots.
Dust any excess flour off the top of the rectangle and, using a small offset.
spatula or a large wide knife, spread the softened butter into an even layer.
across the top of the dough, leaving a small clean edge (about 1/2-inch) all.
around. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of the butter.
and press down to help the mixture adhere.
Starting on a short side of the dough, roll it tightly away from your body,.
pressing the seam to seal as you go, and finishing the with seam side down.
Lift the loaf carefully, trying to prevent any filling from falling out, and.
place it in the center of the prepared loaf pan. Cover the pan with a lightly.
greased piece of plastic wrap and place it in a warm, draft-free location to.
rise until about 150% of its original size (about 1 hour).
Once the dough is nearly at the end of its rise, preheat your oven to 325°F.
Once it has finished rising, remove the plastic wrap and, using a lame or.
small, sharp knife, slash down the center of the loaf, lengthwise, at a 45°.
angle and about 1/3-inch deep. Brush the top of the loaf, including inside.
the slash, generously with the egg wash.
Place the pan in the center of the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes.
Remove the loaf from the pan, place it in a lined baking sheet, and place it.
Continue to bake until the loaf is lightly golden brown, feels firm when.
pressed down lightly in the center, and the internal temperature reaches.
about 195°F on an instant-read thermometer (about 15 minutes more).
Remove the loaf from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool for at least.
20 minutes before slicing and serving.
