"A copycat recipe for Cinnamon Burst Bread. The light texture of the bread is wonderful. Cinnamon chips are hard to find, and the ones that I have found so far (Hershey's) do not duplicate the taste of the ones in the genuine GH bread. I found this recipe on a site that is now defunct so I am posting it here to share and for safe keeping."

directions
- Combine 4 cups flour, yeast and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
- Add water, eggs and oil, beat well until it has the consistencey of cake batter.
- Stir in salt, 7 more cups of flour. to bring the dough to a smooth, "bread dough" consistency.
- Knead in stand mixer with dough hook or by hand for 10 minutes.
- Add up to 1 more cup of flour if needed.
- Fold in cinnamon chips gently to avoid melting. *Alternately you could roll the divided dough into a rectangle and press the chips into the dough. Roll the dough up from the short side and tuck the ends under before placing in a greased loaf pan.
- Place dough in greased bowl, cover and let rise for one hour, or until doubled.
- Punch dough down and shape dough into four loaves.
- Allow to rise for another hour, or until doubled.
- Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes .

This bread is very good; soft, moist. However, putting the cinnamon chips in before the 10 minute kneeding was a bit of a disaster...my bread looks more like pumpkin bread then cinnamon burst. I did hand knead some additional chips in before I put the dough in the pans and those were great. Next time I will not add the chips until the bread has proofed the first time. (I used honey and butter instead of sugar and oil as suggested by another post; thank you!)

Although I have not tried this recipe, I know they used honey instead of sugar, butter instead of oil, and no use of eggs. <br/>I look forward to trying your recipe :) and comparing to the original.<br/>Thanks for the recipe!

This is a very nice bread. I halved the recipe and got two good-sized loaves. I used some of the bread for french toast. Yum! By the way, I ordered my cinnamon chips from Amazon as I could not find any locally. Thanks for the great recipe.

this bread is amazing. i put the cinnamon chips on the top and they got burnt so next time I will gently fold them in. Also the bread itself in this recipe is so versatile that I am using a Wilton mini loaf baking pan and making 4 different flavor breads from this one batch. Cinnamon burst, pepperoni, olive, and maybe a veggie one! So glad I found this recipe

I am a St. Louis girl through and through. I am a mom of three, two boys and a wonderful daughter, married to my high school sweetie for the last 28 years. My hubby and I are on the verge of being empty nesters and are excited to see what this phase of our lives has in store for us. In the last year my sister and I have been exploring our family history and it has been a wonderful and educational experience. Food and cooking has been a big part of my life from the time I was a little girl and I look forward to sharing that same, wonderful part of our heritage to my future grandchildren.
