Questions about Cinnamon bread
How do you toast cinnamon bread without burning the cinnamon and sugar?
Use a medium setting and watch the first slice: the sugary swirls brown faster than plain bread. For a crisp surface without over-toasting, warm it in a frying pan over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes per side.
How do you make French toast with cinnamon bread?
Whisk an egg with a splash of milk, dip each slice briefly, then fry in a lightly buttered pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Cinnamon bread is already sweet, so you may not need extra sugar.
What goes well with cinnamon bread?
Try it toasted with butter, cream cheese or nut butter; sliced banana or apple also works well. It is sweet enough to serve with plain yoghurt or alongside a savoury breakfast such as eggs.
Can you use cinnamon bread for bread and butter pudding?
Yes. Butter the slices, layer them in a baking dish and pour over a custard of eggs and milk. Bake at 180 °C for about 35–45 minutes, until the centre is set and the top is browned; reduce added sugar because the bread is sweet.
How should you store cinnamon bread so it stays soft?
Keep it sealed at room temperature and eat it within a few days; refrigeration can make bread go stale faster. For longer storage, freeze slices in a sealed bag and toast them straight from frozen.
Can you freeze cinnamon bread?
Yes. Freeze slices with small pieces of baking paper between them so you can take out just what you need. They usually thaw in about 30 minutes at room temperature, or can go straight into the toaster from frozen.
What can you use instead of cinnamon bread in a recipe?
For French toast or bread pudding, use brioche, challah or ordinary bread and add cinnamon and a little sugar to the egg mixture or custard. Choose a similarly thick slice so it holds its shape when soaked.
How is cinnamon bread different from a cinnamon bun?
Cinnamon bread is usually a loaf you slice and toast, while a cinnamon bun is an individual, richer pastry with a spiral of filling and often icing. A cinnamon bun has 452 kcal per 100 g, compared with 253 kcal in cinnamon bread.
