   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6      ounces        Buttermilk -- microwaved 20 second
    3      tablespoons   Honey
    3      tablespoons   Egg
    2      tablespoons   Butter -- unsalted
      1/2  teaspoon      Ground cinnamon
    2 1/4  cups          Bread flour
      3/4  teaspoon      Salt
    1 1/4  teaspoons     Yeast
 
 Put all the ingredients in the pan. Start the bread machine and start a
 kitchen timer for 30 minutes. Cover a bread board with plastic wrap and dust
 with flour. When the time is up, remove the dough from the container with
 your hands, leaving the bread pan in place in your machine. Place dough on
 floured board. Dust top of dough and your hands with flour. Pat dough into a
 6"x10" rectangle. Combine 2 teaspoons cinnamon and 1 tsp. sugar. Spoon
 mixture in three long rows, down the dough. Roll dough into a fat cylinder,
 left to right, then fold it in half twisting the ends together. Place the
 dough, ends down, back in the bread machine, close the lid and continue the
 cycle.
 
  Comments: I used buttermilk powder mixed with water instead of buttermilk,
 and didn't zap it for 20 seconds as it was already warm as I used lukewarm
 water. I used regular margarine and decreased the salt some. I always use a
 bit more yeast as it seems to rise better in my machine.
 
  Notes from the recipe: The 30 minutes is just a guide. You need to wait
 until it is done kneading and starts the first rise before you take the
 dough out. In my machine that was closer to 35-40 minutes.
 The editor also said that if your machine has a preheat or rest phase at the
 beginning of the cycle, the 30 minutes doesn't start till after that.  Also
 be sure to keep the machine closed while you are putting the cinnamon on so
 any heat in the machine stays in. Work as quickly as possible because the
 machine still ticks off the time while you're doing it.
 
  I found it to be extremely sticky, and although the editor said not to use
 much flour on your hands and the plastic wrap - I HAD to! I also found that=

  the dough was very mooshy  and the instruction to "fold in half twisting
 the ends together" was a joke. I folded it (by this time it had "mooshed"
 itself into a totally different shape) and tried to twist (yeah - right). It
 then slooped into the bread machine, there was no "placing" it anywhere!!=20
  BUT the final result was excellent and I will make it again!
