Recipe Snapshot
EASE: Let your bread machine do the hard work!
PROS: This bread is SO DELICIOUS
FAMILY FRIENDLY: Everyone will love this bread!
GREAT FOR BRUNCH: Or snacking or dessert…
Sweet, soft and gooey!
Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread is the ultimate in sweet delicious breads. Seriously. This bread is the stuff dreams are made of. It’s sweet, soft, gooey and full of delicious cinnamon flavour. If I had my way, we’d have a loaf every Saturday morning…but that’s just not good for my pants, know what I mean? But when you want a treat, you should make this bread.
Let your bread machine to the hard work.
And don’t worry, it’s much easier than it may look. In fact, I make the dough for this pull apart bread in my bread machine. Bread machines are so awesome for us non-bread makers…they do all the work for you. And the best part is, the end result is the same…you end up with a loaf of delicious bread.
Perfect for sharing.
I also really love that this is a sharing bread…set it out in the middle of your table, and everyone can help themselves. You’ll notice a funny thing will happen…everyone will get quiet, and the middle pieces will disappear first. That’s where all the gooey soft cinnamon sugar syrup is. Are you convinced yet?
This recipe will make one large loaf of Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread. Don’t worry if the pieces jumble up all over the place as the loaf bakes…it will taste amazing.
How to prepare the dough:
Here are some pictures for how to prepare and cut the dough before it goes into the pan for baking.
Roll out the dough to measure roughly 12 x 18 inches, then slather it with all the melted butter.
Spread the cinnamon-sugar mix evenly over the dough. Use all of it. Yes.
Cut the dough into 6 even strips, vertically.
Then stack the pieces on top of each other.
Cut into 6 even strips again.
Take each section of dough, turn them upward and line them up in a lightly greased baking pan. Sprinkle on any extra cinnamon-sugar mix that may have escaped. Now refer to the recipe for baking instructions.

- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tbsp skim milk powder

Cinnamon Sugar Mix:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 4 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
The Dough:
- Add all of the bread ingredients to the bread machine in the order I have them listed.
- Set the bread machine to the dough cycle.
- When it is finished, remove the dough from the machine and set it in a warm place, cover with a clean tea towel, and let rise for 1 hour.
- At this point, you can put it in the fridge to use the next day, but when you take it out, let it sit for 30 minutes to warm up.

- Cover your pan with a clean tea towel again, and let rise for 30-45 minutes more.
- Then, in a preheated 350 degree oven, bake for 35-45 minutes. (I put a cookie sheet under my tin, because the sugar mix tends to bubble over.)
- When baking is complete, take bread out of the oven, and let rest in the pan for about 15 minutes.
- Enjoy!
Have a delicious day!

Thanks for making this easy to follow- it’s in the oven now. I can’t wait to have my family try it <3
You are so welcome! I hope you enjoy it!
This looks great! Can you recommend a substitute for the powder milk? What ratio of liquid milk should I use? Thank you
Hi! You can use all milk instead of water and the powdered milk…so for this recipe use 1/2 cup milk (omit the water and powdered milk). Happy baking!
Love this recipe! More importantly my wife and daughter loved it even more!
Next time I’m making twice as much.
Thanks so much for all of the pictures, this baking newbie is a visual learner, it really helped. 😆
I’m so happy you enjoyed it! It really is so delicious!
