Instructions
1
|
Preheat oven to 200℉.
2
|
Combine the flour and yeast in a large bowl.
3
|
Combine the milk, sugar, and butter in a separate microwave-safe bowl.
4
|
Microwave for 1 minute.
5
|
Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon or an electric mixer. Stir until a dough ball forms.
6
|
Add the egg and continue stirring.
7
|
If the dough is too sticky, add 2 tablespoons of flour. It should not be super sticky when you touch it.
8
|
Cover the bowl with a towel and set aside for 10 minutes while you make the filling.
9
|
Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
10
|
Lightly flour a surface and roll the dough out to about 12×16 inches. Trim off the ends to get an even rectangle.
11
|
Spread the ¼ cup of softened butter on the dough.
12
|
Sprinkle the cinnamon filling on the buttered dough.
13
|
Slice the dough into 8 even strips.
14
|
Place the pie dough in a 9-inch pie pan and flute the edges if desired.
15
|
Roll up each strip into a roll and place into the pie crust.
16
|
Turn off the oven. This is extremely important.
17
|
Cover the pie with foil and place in the oven for 30 minutes.
18
|
Take the pie out of the oven and remove the foil.
19
|
Turn the oven to 350℉.
20
|
When the oven at 350℉ put the pie back in and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
21
|
Place on a cooling rack to cool slightly while making the frosting.
22
|
Use an electric mixer to combine the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, milk, and powdered sugar until a thick frosting forms.
23
|
Spread the frosting over the slightly cooled pie.
24
|
Slice and serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Butter Temperature Magic 🧈Ensure butter is slightly softened but still cool when making the cinnamon filling to create the perfect creamy, spreadable consistency without melting completely.
- Dough Chilling Technique 🧊Chill the pie crust for at least 30 minutes before rolling to prevent shrinkage and ensure a flakier, more tender crust that holds its shape beautifully.
- Cinnamon Swirl Pro Tip 🌀When creating the cinnamon swirl, use a thin offset spatula to spread the filling evenly, ensuring each slice gets the perfect balance of cinnamon and sweetness.
- Cream Cheese Frosting Hack 🧁Let the pie cool completely before adding the cream cheese frosting to prevent it from melting and ensure a thick, luxurious topping that sets perfectly.
- Yeast Activation Trick 🌱Activate the instant dry yeast in warm (not hot) milk to ensure proper rising and prevent killing the yeast, which can result in a dense, flat pie.
