Number Of Ingredients 19

1 package(s) (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
3/4 cup(s) warm milk (110° to 115°)
1/4 cup(s) butter, softened
3 tablespoon(s) sugar
1 - egg
1 teaspoon(s) maple flavoring
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
2 3/4-3 cup(s) all purpose flour
FOR THE FILLING
1/2 cup(s) sugar
1/3 cup(s) chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon(s) maple flavoring
1/4 cup(s) butter, melted
FOR THE GLAZE
1 cup(s) powdered sugar
2 tablespoon(s) butter, melted
1-2 tablespoon(s) milk
1/2 teaspoon(s) maple flavoring

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add the butter, sugar, egg, maple flavoring, salt and 1-1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sugar, walnuts, cinnamon and maple flavoring; set aside.
  • Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into thirds. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; place one circle on a greased baking sheet or 12-in. pizza pan. Spread with a third of the butter; sprinkle with a third of the filling. Repeat layers twice. Pinch edges of dough to seal. Carefully place a glass in center of circle. With scissors, cut from outside edge just to the glass, forming 16 wedges. Remove glass; twist each wedge five to six times. Pinch ends to seal and tuck under. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  • Bake at 375° for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients; set aside. Carefully remove coffee cake from pan by running a metal spatula under it to loosen; transfer to a wire rack. Drizzle with glaze.
