Ingredients for filling:
Sugar - 1 cup
Ground cinnamon - 2 tsp.
Nutmeg - 1/4 tsp.
Butter - 4 tbsp. (melted until browned)
Ingredients for dough:
All-Purpose flour - 2 2/3 cups plus 2 tbsp
White sugar - 1/4 cup
Active dry yeast - 2 1/4 tsp.
Salt - 1/2 tsp.
Unsalted butter - 4 tbsp.
Whole milk - 1/3 cup
Water - 1/4 cup
Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp.
Eggs - 2 (at room temperature)
Method of preparing the filling:
  1. Mix together the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Brown the butter and set aside.
Method of preparing the dough:
  1. Mix the 2 cups of flour, sugar, yeast and salt in a large mixing bowl, and then set aside.
  2. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter and milk in a small saucepan. When the butter has melted completely, remove from the heat and add in the water and vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes, and then pour into the dry ingredients.
  3. Whisk together the eggs and add to the batter. Keep mixing. Add 3/4 c of flour and mix well. The mixture will be sticky.
  4. Place the dough in a medium greased bowl. Cover with wrap and let it sit in a warm place to rise for about 30-45 minutes.
  5. When the dough has doubled in size, knead 2 tablespoons of flour into it. Cover the dough and leave it to rest for 10 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  7. When the dough is ready, you can roll it out on a floured surface.
  8. Brush the dough with butter and pour the filling over the brushed surface. Use a sharp knife to cut the dough horizontally into 6 equal-sized strips.
  9. Stack the strips on top of each other and cut vertically into six equal squares.
  10. In a bread pan, place the squares side by side, and cover the dough for another 15 minutes, to allow it to rise a bit more.
  11. Bake for 30 minutes and serve.
