CINNAMON FLAT BREAD

Cinnamon Flat Bread image

Sometimes I have a craving for cinnamon bread. This easy and fast to make cinnamon flat bread can be served for breakfast or with glass of milk, a cup of coffee or tea. It is tasty on its own, but you can serve it with your favorite jam, peanut butter, or some fresh cheese. It is not overly sweet. The whole spelt flour adds a delicate nutty note, but you can also use whole wheat flour.

Yield 1 baking tray

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 cups spelt flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (see note)

Steps:

Mix all dry ingredients for the dough in a bowl and add the milk. Mix with slightly floured hands until dough is formed. Knead dough for 5 minutes with slightly floured hands. Let rest dough for about 10 minutes.
Preheat oven (480°F, 250°C). Put the baking tray into the oven. So it will be heated up, too.
On a slightly floured working plat form roll out the dough with a rolling pin. It should be thin (as thinner you roll it as crispier it will get during baking). Place the dough on baking paper (size of the baking tray).
Mix egg yolk and milk. Brush the dough with this mixture.
Mix brown sugar, grounded cinnamon and grounded cayenne pepper. Sprinkle the dough with this mixture.
Put dough (on baking paper) on the baking tray in the oven and bake for about 5 - 10 minutes. The bread should be done within 5 minutes and will be soft. If you like it more crispier let it bake for up to 10 minutes. During baking the bread will develop several "bubbles".
Take the cinnamon flat bread out of the oven and let cool on a cooling rack. Cut into pieces and serve.
NOTE (28 April 2006): you can omit the cayenne pepper, if you don't like it. But I would recommend it, because that spicy taste goes well together with cinnamon. If you are hesitant, just try it with a pinch of cayenne pepper first (I added this note after BestTeenChef has reviewed the recipe. Thanks for the comment).

CINNAMON-APPLE SOURDOUGH FLAT BREAD

Cinnamon-Apple Sourdough Flat Bread image

This light-textured yeast bread, topped with cinnamon-y apples, is a delicious snack or breakfast bread. To save time, bake it the day before, then tent lightly with foil and reheat in a preheated 350°F oven for about 10 minutes, just before serving. Individual slices are just fine reheated briefly in the microwave, too. Recieved this recipe from King Arthur Flour on the internet and it's a good way to use up some of that extra sourdough starter. After making this I realized the directions can be confusing. The "Filling" is actually a TOPPING, and the TOPPING is actually just a syrup poured over the top so I'm changing that and hoping it makes more sense but be sure and read the directions all the way. Still yummy for breakfast but makes a lot. One mistake I think I did (though the taste is still good) is not spread the dough thin enough so it rose higher than I wanted. I've frozen over half into one person servings and hoping to pull out on busy days for DH and my breakfast on the run.

Time 1h

Yield 18 servomgs, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 cup sourdough starter, fed
3/4 cup water, lukewarm
2 teaspoons instant yeast
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons dry milk
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 apples, very large firm about 2 pounds
1/4 cup cider, boiled
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup cinnamon sugar
1/4 cup syrup, reserved from cooked apples
2 -3 tablespoons sugar, coarse white (optional)

Steps:

Combine all of the dough ingredients, and mix and knead them - by hand, mixer, or bread machine - to make a smooth, fairly soft dough.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, and let it rise for 1 hour. Gently deflate it, and allow it to rise for another hour; it should have at least doubled in bulk, or come close to it. While the dough is rising, prepare the topping.
For the topping: Core the unpeeled apples, and cut each into 8 wedges; an apple corer/slicer works well here. Cut each of the wedges into 3 pieces; you'll have 7 to 7 1/2 cups (about 27 ounces) of apple chunks.
Put the chunks in a shallow microwave-safe bowl, and drizzle with the boiled cider and maple syrup. Don't have boiled cider or maple syrup? Drizzle with 1/3 cup honey, 1/4 cup agave syrup, or the sweetener of your choice.
Microwave the apples till they've softened, but still hold their shape. In our microwave here, that took about 9 minutes.
Drain the apples, reserving the juice. Set them aside to cool while the dough is rising.
Lightly spay with cooking spray a 18" x 13" rimmed baking sheet (half-sheet pan), or two 9" x 13" pans. Drizzle olive oil atop the spray; the spray keeps the bread from sticking, while the olive oil gives the bottom crust great crunch and flavor.
Gently deflate the risen dough, then pull and shape the dough into a rough rectangle, and place it in the pan. (Or divide it in half, and put in the two smaller pans.) Pat and stretch to fill the bottom of the pan. The dough will shrink back; as soon as it doe, cover it and walk away for 10 to 15 minutes. Return, and pat it towards the edges of the pan again. You may have to give it another rest; that's OK. Your ultimate goal is to stretch the dough to cover the bottom of the pan, with perhaps just the very corners uncovered.
Arrange the apple chunks atop the dough.
Mix 1/4 cup of the reserved syrup with 1/4 cup Baker's Cinnamon Filling or 1/4 cup cinnamon-sugar. The Baker's Cinnamon Filling will yield a richer, creamier topping. Drizzle the syrup over the apples.
Cover the bread, and let it rise for 1 hour, till it's nice and puffy. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 425°F
Uncover the bread, and sprinkle with coarse white sparkling sugar, if desired. Bake the bread for 25 to 30 minutes, till the crust is golden brown around the edges and feels set in the center. Remove it from the oven, turn it out onto a rack, and serve warm.
