Nutty Cinnamon Apple Roll

Happy National Homemade Bread Day! Attention bakers, it’s a day to bake and enjoy your signature bread! 

 

I’m still a beginner baker so baking homemade bread is still challenging to me. Kneading? Yes, that makes my arms sore the next day. Does my dough rise perfectly? Well I need help from warm water and several bowls. So am I tired/bored baking on my own bread? NO! 

 

Guys, baking your own bread is fun so how about baking some to celebrate National Homemade Bread Day?  

 

As we’re in the apple season, I wanted to bake some homemade bread pastry using apples. As long as it’s Autumn, cinnamon should be joining.

 

Hmm, I think I’ll be a little indulgent. The aroma of a beautiful harvest in Autumn is the perfect way to enjoy baking bread and enjoy the season! 

 

Are you ready to check how I enjoyed it? Here we go!

<Cooking Tips>

I recommend using granny smith apples. They have a slightly sour flavor than other apples and it adds an accent on the sweet pastry. 

 

Freshly out of oven!

 

The crispy outside, fluffy inside homemade bread pastry is so good! When it’s freshly out of the oven, your nostril catches the aroma of cinnamon and apples with a comfortable wheaty flavor. This is the possible time to burn your tongue, so be careful, but I know you can’t resist that too! 

Happy National Homemade Bread Day all!
