Yes, that's the right idea. I don't have my bread recipe with me, and it is
a non-wheat recipe anyway, but here are the things that turn a bread recipe
into a cinnamon swirl recipe:
- start with a fairly sweet bread
- add a heaped teaspoon ginger to the dough ingredients
- add raisins or currants as for an ordinary raisin bread
- before the last rise, at punch down, roll the dough fairly flat. Spread
with a mixure of about 1 TB butter, 1 1/2 TB cinnamon, and 1 1/2 TB sugar
(actual amounts to your taste). It should be a spreadable paste. Be sure
NOT to spread the mixture all the way to the edges of the dough. Roll it up
and pinch the ends to seal.
- let rise the last time and bake.
I do this all the time in my Zo. I simply pull out the dough at the punch
down, prepare, and return it to the pan. Actually I also change pans, since
I have one of Irwin's "finnish" pans without a paddle. I set my watch timer
to 1 hour 16 minutes from the time I press the Start button, which takes me
to the punchdown before the last rise, so I can go in the kitchen and make
the switch.

Does anyone have a good bread machine recipe for cinnamon bread?
The kind with a swirl of cinnamon through it?
In general, I make dough in my bread machine, then bake it in the oven. I'm
guessing I would have to make some sort of sweet dough, roll it out, spread
it
with cinnamon and sugar, roll it up like a jellyroll, and then bake it in a
loaf pan?
I would appreciate any help with this!
