Ingredients
– 200 grams flour for the base of the dough, providing structure and a soft texture
– 150 grams sugar for sweetness and browning, making the twists caramelized
– 100 grams cocoa powder for a rich, chocolatey flavor that complements the cinnamon
– 2 large eggs for binding ingredients together and adding moisture
– 200 milliliters milk for the dough’s softness and helping achieve that perfect rise
– 50 grams butter for richness and a melt-in-your-mouth quality
– 1 teaspoon baking powder as a leavening agent to make the bread twists light and airy
Instructions
1-First Step: Gather and Prep Your Ingredients. Start by collecting all your ingredients to make the process smooth and enjoyable. Measure out 200 grams of flour, 150 grams of sugar, 100 grams of cocoa powder, 2 large eggs, 200 milliliters of milk, 50 grams of butter, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Mix the dry items in a large bowl to ensure they’re well combined, which helps your cinnamon roll bread twists rise evenly.
2-Second Step: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures. Next, melt the butter and whisk it with the eggs and milk in a separate bowl. Slowly add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until you form a sticky dough. This step is crucial for cinnamon roll bread twists as it creates that soft, gooey center we all love, and you can adjust for dietary needs by using plant-based alternatives here.
3-Third Step: Shape the Dough. Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle about half an inch thick. Spread a cinnamon-sugar mix over it for that signature flavor, then cut the dough into strips and twist each one gently. Shaping is where your cinnamon roll bread twists get their fun form, and it’s easy to make them smaller for kids or larger for hearty meals.
4-Fourth Step: Let the Dough Rest and Preheat the Oven. Let the shaped twists rest for about 15 minutes to allow the dough to rise, which makes your cinnamon roll bread twists extra fluffy. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and grease a baking sheet. This resting time is perfect for adding your own touches, like extra cinnamon for more flavor.
5-Fifth Step: Bake to Perfection. Place the twists on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until they’re golden brown and smell amazing. Keep an eye on them to avoid over-baking, as this ensures the twists stay soft and moist. Once done, let them cool for a few minutes before serving warm cinnamon roll bread twists are the best!
6-Sixth Step: Final Touches and Serving. Add a simple glaze or dusting of powdered sugar for extra appeal, then serve your cinnamon roll bread twists right away. They’re great on their own or paired with coffee, and you can link them to other recipes like our delicious summer squash corn chowder for a full meal.

๐ฅจ Keep the milk warm but not hot – too hot will kill the yeast, but too cold won’t activate it properly.
๐ฉ Roll the dough tightly around the filling – loose spirals will unravel during baking and lose their beautiful shape.
๐ก Let the shaped rolls rise fully – this second rise creates the light, airy texture that makes them melt in your mouth.
