Directions
.
Keep the butter at room temperature until it becomes soft.
Leave the milk at room temperature.
Beat the eggs lightly, add 1 tablespoon of milk in half of the amount, and save for the later step.
Mix milk, egg and butter with an egg whisk, and heat them with microwave. Or use the remaining heat of the oven to melt the butter. It cannot be too hot otherwise it will affect the fermentation. You can use your fingers to test the temperature. (Cannot exceed 37 degrees)
Put the bread flour, yeast, white sugar and salt in the dough mixer and mix well.
Add the butter mixture and mix well at the medium speed (my mixer has 5 degrees, ‘3’ is in used). Turn up to high speed (5).
Knead the dough until the dough does not stick to the mixing bowl.
If the dough is too wet, add a little more flour, if it is too dry, add a little more milk.
Sweep some cooking oil into a mixing bowl, put the dough in, cover it with cling wrap, and leave the dough at room temperature for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
.
Mix the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon with an electronic egg beater.
Spread the cooking oil on the baking plate.
.
Take out the dough and use a flour roll to unfold the dough into a rectangular shape at about 30cm long.
Spread the cinnamon butter evenly on the unfolded dough.
Fold the dough twice and make a 10cm rectangle with the cinnamon butter inside.
Use a flour roll to spread the dough to about 20cm long, and cut into 6 equal portions.
Divide each dough into three equal portions, leaving 1cm from the edge.
Make a three strand braid dough, roll up and put it into the muffin baking tray.
Cover it up with a towel or cling wrap and leave it at room temperature for another 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 190 degrees.
Spread the egg mixture on the surface of the dough before baking.
Bake at 190 degrees for 20 minutes.
Sprinkle with icing sugar for decoration.
