Super simple dough that happens to be pretty healthy turns into a delicious breakfast or brunch or even dessert. It’s not super sweet, but you can add icing if that’s your thing. The recipe is based on cinnamon buns, but I used Hawaij for Coffee instead of the cinnamon
I made this dough with a bowl and spoon but you can use a food processor or mixer to help bring everything together if you want.
Hawaij for Coffee Pull Apart Bread
Servings
8 Servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole wheat or spelt flour
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1½-2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt about 400 grams
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Jamie Geller Hawaij for Coffee
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375℉.
- Butter or grease a 9 or 10-inch loaf pan
- In a large bowl combine flours, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and mix well. Add the yogurt and stir until it begins to come together adding more yogurt as needed to form a smooth, not too sticky dough ball.
- In a small bowl mix the sugar and Hawaij together. Dump the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Roll out the dough into roughly a 12×20 inch rectangle and brush with butter and sprinkle with sugar hawaij mixture.
- Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into three equal strips length-wise and carefully stack them on top of on another and then cut again into five to six stacks.
- Place stacks vertically in prepared loaf pan and bake until center is done (use a thermometer to be safe it is ready at approximately 190F), about 30-35 minutes. Let rest 20-30 minutes before running a knife along the edges and removing the bread from the pan to serve.
- Serve with icing if desired.
sounds great, but i need a video to SEE how to cut/stack it up so pretty!
Ok, will work on one!
Hi Jamie. Sounds and looks delicious! Two questions: 1. Can I substitute almond flour for the whole wheat flour? 2. If I use cinnamon instead of Hawaij, do I use the same amount? Thanks
YOu can certainly try almond flour, it should work, but might be harder to roll and cut
Thanks for letting me know. And how about using cinnamon instead of Hawaij? Do I use a 1-to-1 ratio?
Yes, I would, but I do like it very cinnamony so if you’re not sure, use a little less.
Parve substitute for Greek Yogurt: Coconut Milk, Coconut Yogurt, Cashew Milk, Apple Sauce, Banana Purée, Coconut Cream, Almond Butter, Pistachio Yogurt.
Butter substitute: a vegetable margarine or Canola oil. I like to make things Parve as people like to eat meat meals
Thanks, it is really good, and you can find out everything about our favorite spice blend here https://jamiegeller.com/guides/how-to-use-hawaij-for-coffee/
Sounds delicious, but what on earth is ‘hawaij for coffee’? Never heard of it.
Oh, okay, sorry, you can follow the recipe with any other dough, I like this because it is easy and healthy but you can use a cinnamon bun dough or even challah dough, it might be smarter than trying to adapt this dough.
Sorry, what makes this work is the yogurt, the only dairy free option is a vegan yogurt. I find vegan yogurt tends to be sweeter which will be fine in this recipe.
Thank you, Tamar, but the word Yogurt, Is NOT in my vocabulary. It makes me bristle!
I would love to make this, but NO DAIRY please. Tell me how to make this without dairy products, please? the butter is okay, but that white stuff, yuck!
