10 servings

  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 0.25 cup warm water
  • 2.5 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cup milk, warmed
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups brown sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  • Lightly grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt) with vegetable oil; set aside.
  • Make dough: Combine warm water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar in a large bowl. Let stand until bubbly and foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in 1 cup flour, warm milk, egg, 3 tablespoons sugar, butter, salt, and vanilla extract until combined. Add remaining 2 1/2 cups flour. Mix and knead until dough comes together in a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and punch down gently to deflate. Divide dough into small or medium balls.
  • Make coating: Mix together brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Dip each dough ball in melted butter, remove with a fork, then roll in cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
  • Arrange coated dough balls in the prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let rise until almost doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Invert onto a large plate; cool for 10 minutes before serving.
