Ingredients
Scale
1 cup warm milk (110-115°F)
1 cup sugar (divided)
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar for the cinnamon swirl
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined. Gently fold the yeast mixture into the wet ingredients.
In another bowl, mix the flour and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle (about 10×14 inches). Spread melted butter over the dough, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly, and roll it tightly from the long end.
Cut the rolled dough into halves, twist each half, and place them in greased loaf pans. Cover and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the bread for 50 minutes or until golden brown.
Let the bread cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
