Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
For the dough, prepare the starter. In a bowl, mix the yeast, warm milk, and sugar. Leave it on the counter until foam appears. Then add the egg, melted butter, and salt to the starter, and mix (I use a whisk). In another bowl, sift the flour and make a well in the center. Pour in the starter and mix. Knead into an elastic dough. Leave it to rise for 50 minutes.
Step 2
For the filling, mix 50 g of butter, 3–4 tablespoons of sugar, and 1–2 teaspoons of cinnamon (I replace the cinnamon with natural vanilla sugar). Combine the butter and sugar — the filling is ready.
Step 3
Place the risen dough on the counter. Divide the dough into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a rectangle, spread the butter mixture (leave some for the top), and roll it into a log. Cut it in half lengthwise, without cutting all the way through. Twist it like a rope. Pinch the ends together to form a wreath. Brush the top with the remaining butter mixture.
Step 4
Bake in the oven at 355°F for 20–25 minutes.
