Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread

Today I achieved greatness.

My new favourite blog: Joy the Baker. Here is the recipe.

If you have been reading my little blog for a while, you know that I'm not the greatest baker. Remember the cookies that looked like bums? Or the other cookies that ended up with me digging through the garbage? This is not one of those memories.

So, cookies are obviously my arch nemesis but one thing I can do is make a mean loaf of bread. This recipe - so right up my alley.

The stickiness of the doug
h scared me at first, but after kneading in the little bit of extra flour it was a perfect consistency. It looked like a brain at one point but I was brave and went on with the recipe.

You use one cup of sugar and it totally seems like overkill but it really isn't. And the bread isn't sickly sweet either. I'm not sure where all the sugar ends up....other than on my hips...

The crust is crusty and golden - seriously. I can't take it.

I thought for sure we would polish the whole thing off but we didn't.

There are still a few hours until bed time.

Oh yum, that looks AMAZING. Congratulations on the baking success.

This makes me realize I seriously haven't baked anything in years. Pretty sad.
