Did I mention I’m in a baking craze? There are simply too many lovely creations to try. I saw this beautiful weave bread from @stemsandforks on Pinterest and just had to make one myself.
I used my usual sweet yeast dough (the recipe is in my Rhubarb rolls post), and filled it with traditional Swedish cinnamon bun filling. You’ll find a step by step visual guide below on how to weave it. It’s a lot easier than it looks, I promise you. Happy baking!
Step by Step
Step 1
Divide your sweet dough into 4 pieces.
Roll the pieces in to squares.
Spread vegan butter, cinnamon and caster sugar on to the squares.
Step 2
Make the 4 squares in to rolls.
Cut each one of the rolls down along the middle with a sharp knife.
Step 3
Place the bottom of a round baking tray under a piece of parchment paper.
Place the halved rolls in the pattern on the left.
Step 4
Tuck the rolls together and weave them once more into the pattern you see on the left.
Step 5
Weave them together one last time like the pattern on the left.
Step 6
Tuck in the remaining bits of bread underneath the rest of the dough and make sure the bread fits the baking tray.
Step 7
Place the removable part of the baking tray around the bread and parchment paper, but let it stay loosened.
Bake at 225 C for 25-30 minutes, until golden and fully baked through.
Step 8
Serve with a nice cup of tea or coffee and enjoy!
