Welcome to the “Fast Easy Delicious” virtual family ❤️
This soft Christmas cinnamon bread with walnuts and raisins is the holiday bread I make every year. The dough is made with warm milk, a little oil and a single egg, and it turns into fluffy, non-sticky bread sticks that are perfect with tea or coffee.

You don’t need a mixer or special skills: just mix, let it rise, roll it out, spread the filling and twist. It’s foolproof and perfect for Christmas, New Year’s and any holiday table.

???? Ingredients
Cup size: 1 US cup = 240 ml.

For the dough:

220 ml warm milk / 7.4 fl oz / a little less than 1 cup

15 g sugar (0.53 oz / 1 Tbsp)

7 g dry yeast (0.25 oz / 2¼ tsp / about 1 packet)

85 ml neutral cooking oil (2.9 fl oz / about ⅓ cup + 1 tsp)

1 large egg

450 g all-purpose flour (15.9 oz / about 3¾ cups)

6 g salt (0.21 oz / 1 tsp)

For the filling & topping:

100 g soft butter, for spreading (3.5 oz / about 7 Tbsp)

4 Tbsp cinnamon sugar (3 Tbsp sugar + 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon)

Chopped walnuts (about ½ cup / roughly 50–70 g / 1.8–2.5 oz)

Raisins (about ½ cup / roughly 50–70 g / 1.8–2.5 oz)

Milk for brushing

????‍???? What happens in this video

We mix warm milk, sugar and dry yeast and stir until the yeast dissolves.

We add oil and one egg, then mix until the egg is fully incorporated.

Flour and salt go in, and we gently bring the dough together by hand.

The dough is massaged lightly, not kneaded for a long time.

We cover the dough and let it rise until doubled in size.

The soft, non-sticky dough is rolled into a rectangle about ½ cm thick.

We spread butter over the surface and sprinkle cinnamon sugar, walnuts and raisins.

The fillings are gently pressed so they stick to the dough.

The dough is rolled into a log, sealed, gently stretched and cut into even pieces.

Each piece is shaped as shown in the video to create twisted holiday sticks.

After a second rest, we brush the tops with milk.

We bake at 180 °C / 356 °F for 30–35 minutes, with a bowl of boiling water in the bottom of the oven for steam.

The bread comes out golden, soft inside and beautifully fragrant.

Let the bread cool slightly before serving. You can dust with powdered sugar if you like, or enjoy it plain.
