Looking for a great idea perfect for breakfast, brunch OR dessert? Ashley has a recipe for Cinnamon Roll bread that is easy to make and prep time only takes about 10 minutes.  Most of the time in this recipe is cooking time – the actual prep time is only about 10 minutes.

Then just let it cook for about 50 minutes, let it cool, and then top with a glaze. The rich mixture of sugar and cinnamon that gets swirled into the bread is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth too!

Part of the secret to the great bread itself is the addition of greek yogurt or sour cream to the batter. You can check out Ashley’s recipe along with instructions and additional photos on her post HERE.
