Instructions
Cinnamon Filling
In a medium size bowl, place softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and combine with a spatula until creamy. Set aside.
Dough
In a large size bowl place flour, sugar, baking powder and mix until combined.
Add melted butter, yogurt, milk and combine until get a very soft dough: if it's too dry, you can add a splash of extra milk, if it's too wet and sticky add a bit of extra flour.
Place the dough onto a silicone mat a or a parchment paper sheet to avoid sticking to the work surface and shape in a rectangle.
Roll the dough with a rolling pin until get a 40x55 cm-16x22 inch rectangle.
Spread evenly the Cinnamon Filling on the dough.
Fold the dough in three on the long side.
Split the folded dough into 12 equal pieces (cut on the short size).
Cut in three a piece dough and braid it (as you can see in the recipe video below).
Roll the braid and pinch the bottom to get a braided ball.
Repeat for every piece of dough.
Place every braided ball in a greased muffin mold.
Bake in preheated oven (no fan) at 180°C-350°F for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown: be careful and don't over bake them or they turn out too dry!
Remove from the oven and cool down for about 10 minutes.
You can brush the top with some melted butter fod a glossy finish and dust with powdered sugar (optional).
