Ingredients

For The Dough

¾ cup warm water
1 package of instant yeast
1 tablespoon honey
1 ¼ cup brown sugar
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
⅓ cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

For The Filling

3 tablespoons butter room temperature
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Mix honey, warm (not hot) water, and the yeast. Set it aside for the yeast to activate. It may only take 5-10 minutes.
Add the flour, nutmeg (or cinnamon), sugar, and sea salt to a mixing bowl with a dough-hook attachment of a mixer.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and oil together.
Mix dry and liquid ingredients until they resemble dough.
Kneading it briefly and letting the dough rise in a greased bowl with a plastic wrap will help it to rise.
When the dough has doubled, divide it into three pieces.
Roll each sheet and create a rectangular form.
Spread oil and sprinkle Cinnamon evenly on rectangular shapes.
Roll the dough pieces tightly and create a braid using all three pieces.
Place in a pan for baking.
Bake at 375℉ for 25-30 mins or until dough is baked and golden brown.
