German Cinnamon Coffee Cake
Ingredients
  • 2 (.25 ounce) packages dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Next, take a 9x13 inch baking dish and apply a generous amount of butter to it. Set the pan aside for now.
2
In a tiny, yet essential, mixing container, combine warm water and yeast. Allow the mixture to sit for about 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and creamy. This is a crucial step in the process.
3
In another saucepan, combine milk, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, and 1/2 cup butter. Heat the mixture over low heat until the sugar dissolves and the butter melts. Once this is achieved, let the mixture cool down to a lukewarm temperature.
4
Now, add the dissolved yeast to this mixture and set it aside for now. This step is critical in developing the flavor of your dish.
5
In a large mixing container, combine flour, eggs, and the yeast mixture. Use a spoon to mix everything together until it forms a smooth and blended consistency.
6
Pour the dough into your prepared 9x13 inch pan, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface. Allow the dough to rise in a warm environment for 45 minutes.
7
While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to the desired temperature. This will ensure that your dish is cooked to perfection.
8
In a small, yet vital, mixing container, combine 1/2 cup butter, 1 cup sugar, and a pinch of cinnamon. Mix the ingredients together until they form a smooth paste.
9
Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the dough, making sure to cover every surface.
