Cinnamon Swirl Chocolate Chip Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
• Combine sugar, brown sugar, and oil in a separate bowl. Stir in buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract. Add to flour mixture and mix until combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon 1/2 of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon for the topping in a small bowl. Sprinkle all but 2 tablespoons topping into the loaf pan and cover with the remaining batter. Gently drag a knife through the batter to create a swirl. Sprinkle the remaining topping on top of the loaf.
• Bake in a preheated oven until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove and let cool for 15 minutes. Remove from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Spray two 8 by 4 inch loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk the water and yeast togetherby hand in an electric mixer bowl and let stand for 2 to 3 minutes to dissolve.
• Stir in the butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, dry milk, potato flakes and 3 1/2 cups flour.
• Mix to make a soft dough.
• Kead with the dough hook on the lowest speed of the mixer for 10 minutes, adding more flour as required to make a soft dough.
• Place in a lightly greased bowl.
• Cover the bowl loosely with a plastic bag and let dough rise for 45 minutes or until almost doubled.
• Punch the dough down gently.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll out to a 12 by 10 inch rectangle.
• For the filling, brush with milk and sprinkle on the raisins, cinnamon and sugar.
• With the shorter end facing you, roll up the dough snugly into a log.
• Cut it in half widthwise and place in the prepared pans.
• Spray the dough with nonstick cooking spray lightly.
• Cover the pans loosely with plastic bags and let rise for a further 30 to 45 minutes, or until it puffs up 3/4 to 1 inch above the edge of the pans.
• Preheat oven to 350*F.
• Place pans in oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until lightly browned.
• Let cool in the pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes before unmolding.
• VARIATION: Use chocolate chips instead of raisins and replace the cinnamon with 2 TBS cocoa powder.

Steps:

• Dough: Whisk together 1/3 cup bread flour, 1/3 cup milk, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan until smooth. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking frequently, until thickened slightly but still pourable (it should have the consistency of loose pudding), 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool until warm to the touch but no longer hot, about 10 minutes.
• In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 3 cups flour, granulated sugar, salt, and yeast. Make a well in center of mixture. Add cooked milk-flour mixture, remaining 1/3 cup milk, melted butter, and whole egg to well; stir until a dough forms.
• Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic and springs back when lightly pressed, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl brushed with butter, turning dough to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in volume, 45 minutes to 1 hour; or refrigerate up to 1 day and return to room temperature before rolling out.
• Filling: Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush a standard 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with butter. Stir together butter, brown sugar, cocoa, and cinnamon until smooth.
• Punch down dough. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to a 12-by-16-inch rectangle. Spread brown-sugar mixture evenly over top of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border at edges. Sprinkle evenly with chocolate. Starting at one short end, roll up dough into a tight log, pinching ends and seam to seal after rolling. Starting 1 inch from one end of log, cut through dough vertically all the way through opposite end (dough should only be attached at one end).
• Twist the two sections of dough outward 5 times, then braid together, starting at attached end, pinching ends together to seal. Compress braid slightly with your hands to approximately 9 inches; transfer to prepared pan. Cover and let rise until doubled in volume (dough should rise about 1 inch above rim of pan), about 45 minutes. Whisk egg white with 1 teaspoon water; brush over top of dough.
• Bake until bread is puffed and brown on top (if browning too quickly, tent with foil), 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 20 minutes. Carefully remove bread from pan and let cool completely on rack, about 2 hours. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, coat the inside of a large bowl with cooking spray.
• Add warm milk, melted butter, egg, and salt to yeast mixture; whisk for 1 minute. Gradually stir in flour until dough is no longer sticky.
• Knead dough by hand on a lightly floured surface or in a stand mixer fitted with a bread hook for 10 minutes. Transfer to the prepared bowl and turn until dough is covered in cooking spray. Cover with a damp cloth and leave in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Mix together sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.
• Remove dough from the bowl. Punch it and fold in the sides. Flatten dough with a rolling pin into a 9x18-inch rectangle. Brush on melted butter and sprinkle with all but 3 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar mixture. Sprinkle with chopped chocolate. Roll dough carefully, starting at the short end, and pinch closed at the seam. Place seam-side down in the prepared loaf pan. Cover the pan and set in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Brush beaten egg on top of dough and sprinkle with remaining 3 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven until top is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Carefully tip loaf out of pan onto a work surface and let it cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the butter, 1 cup sugar and egg until blended. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add to egg mixture alternately with buttermilk. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and remaining sugar., Pour a third of the batter into a greased 8x4-in. loaf pan; sprinkle with a third of the cinnamon sugar. Repeat layers twice. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Mix both yeast and water together and proof.
• mix together sugar, butter, eggs, milk, and proofed yeast.
• Add 1 1/2 cups of flour and mix well.
• add the rest of the dough until a stiffish dough forms, cover and let rest for a few minutes then knead for about 5-10 minutes until soft.
• Cover and let rise until doubled in a greased bowl, punch down and let rise again.
• Then roll dough out into a rectangle then brush with a little bit of butter.
• Sprinkle with sugar cinnamon and nutmeg to taste then roll up jelly roll style.
• Place in a greased bread pan, or cookie tray and bake for 30-45 minutes at 375 F or until when tapped it sounds hollow.
• Cover if the top is browning too fast, when you take it out of the oven you may brush the top with extra butter to make a softer crust. Also you may freeze the cooked loaf and re heat in oven covered in foil until thawed and it taste just as good.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour to yeast.
• In a sauce pan heat and stir the milk, sugar, butter and salt until warm (120 to 130) and butter almost melts. Add to flour mixture; mix well. Add eggs.
• Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high for 3 minute.
• Using spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 min).
• Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Roll out both portions of dough separately to form two 14x10-inch rectangles.
• Reserve 2 tablespoons of the Heath Bits. Sprinkle remaining over dough rectangles.
• Starting from short side, roll up each one. Seal seams and edges. Line a baking sheet with foil, grease the foil. Transfer loaves to prepared baking sheet. Cover let rise until nearly double (25 to 30 min.).
• Bake at 375 for about 20 minute or until done. Remove to wire racks to cool.
• For icing; combine powdered sugar, water and vanilla. Spread over cooled loaves and sprinkle with reserved Heath Bits.
