Oh, delicious and beautiful! I think I just might give this a try for Christmas morning or some time during the Christmas season. I do have a breadmaker, and LOVE it, but have not yet moved beyond letting it bake my french bread for me (which we do at least twice a week).

that pic before the second rise makes me jealous. you cant even see the ends of the bread where it was joined to form a circle. looks just perfect.

I can’t wait to try this. I just got a brand new in the box Toastmaster Bread Box (bread machine) at a garage sale for $19.50. Two days in a row I made an incredibly good Pizza stromboli by doing the dough in the bread machine.
I’m going to make your recipe Sunday or Monday. Thank you.

“Romaine”–I must say this recipe looks like a true winner!! Just let me know when that B&B opens–I’ll be there with bells on! Need another partner??
Thanks for all the wonderful recipes you always have. Can’t wait to try the Fish Pizza!

Great tips. I have been making the twisted cinnamon bread for so long, I had forgotten my struggles to form it right in the beginning. Thank-you for commenting about it.

Hello,

I am a newbie to your site – and I *love* it already! Thus far, I have attempted your Monkey Bread recipe & this Twisty Bread. Both were fantastic, and big hits with my family!

The only “hints” I would give someone trying this recipe out for the first time would be to make sure your rectangle is LONG. I thought I had mine long enough, yet when I was finished twisting it, I could hardly wrap it into a circle without it becoming one large mass of messy dough (delicious messy dough!). My second attempt included a longer rectangle of dough, plus – while I was rolling the dough up, jelly-roll style – I was softly pressing the dough roll, making sure it was a nice, tight roll. I didn’t do that with the first roll and ended up with a kinda loose, messy roll.

Yet from now on, now that I know the “tricks” that work for me (everyone is different), I do believe this will become a go-to recipe for company and any time I want a special treat! YUM~

Tried this during some of our cold rainy weather, and it was wonderful. I did a couple of “non-skinny” things, though. I increased the butter I spread on the dough before rolling it, and instead of the milk/sugar glaze, I used a cream cheese frosting glaze. Am I voted off the blog such an indiscretion? :+)

I have a Toastmaster bread maker that my Grandma gave me. It’s a few years old, but it’s been working great. Sometimes I add King Arthur White Wheat flour, since it’s not as noticable, but it’s just never as good. I’ll have to keep trying!

Gina, I’ve missed you. Can’t imagine how busy you must be though.

Don’t really have a good whole wheat recipe. I’m not that fond of it myself so rarely go there. Occasionally, I will add 1/2 – 1 cup whole wheat to my rolls but that’s about it. Let me know if you come up with a good one.

What kind of bread machine do you have?
