Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp. dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 5 cups flour
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup butter cut into pieces and softened

Sugar Coating

  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. each nutmeg and ginger

Glaze

  • 3-4 Tbsp. icing sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 Tbsp. water or to desired consistency

Instructions

  • In a standup mixer with a paddle attachment add yeast, sugar, salt, and 1 cup flour.
  • Add hot water and mix at medium speed for 2 min. or until smooth. Add eggs one at a time and beat well after each. Add 2 more cups of flour slowly and mix well.
  • Add butter, a few pieces at a time, and mix well until completely incorporated. Add the remaining flour, dough will still be sticky.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, let rise for 3 hours until doubled. Deflate and cover again, refrigerate for 6-18 hours. The dough can be frozen at this point if desired. Thaw before proceeding.
  • Line a 12 cup muffin tin with cupcake liners. Turn out dough onto a floured surface. Do not use more than 1/2 cup of flour. Gently knead the dough and form into a ball.
  • Cut the dough in half and reserve the other half to make a braid or loaf later, covering the unused portion with a towel or plastic wrap. Mix the sugar coating ingredients together.
  • Nip off small pieces of dough, roll into balls about 1" in diameter each, and toss in the sugar coating. Place in the muffin tin filling them to 3/4 full. Cover lightly and allow to rise in a warm draft-free spot for 30-40 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and bake for 20 min. until golden brown. Let cool and mix glaze ingredients and drizzle.
