Normally when I look at Sue’s blog I sit back and think “Man, why can’t I do that?!” She is amazing and so talented when it comes to baking and decorating the cutest cookies ever. Then I saw this post and thought “holy smokes, I can do that!” I was so excited! I’m always looking […]
Because, really… isn’t everything better on a stick? Heck yeah! And how cute are these little mummy heads? I just loved them. We gobbled up our Mummy Twinkie Pops (holy smokes, were they good!) And we wanted to do another fun mummy treat this Halloween so we decided on these. Mummy Oreo Suckers Source: How […]
What do you think of Twinkies? I think people either love them or hate them. I love them. I’m not sure why. If I think about it too long I start to question my love of spongy yellow cake and frosting. So I don’t think about it for too long =o) For awhile, years ago, […]

I know today is November 1st and Breast Cancer Awareness month was October but I just had to share this one with you. Plus today is “Wear Pink” day at my school. So, of course I had to bring cookies to help celebrate! And not just any cookies… Mammo-graham cookies. Ha! Get it?! Mammo – […]
My son wanted a Nerf birthday party. Do you know how hard it is to find Nerf party things out there??? It’s darn near impossible. Tiffanee over at One Crazy Cookie made our Nerf Birthday Party Invitations which were a giant hit! I don’t know how she does it but she is a computer […]
I had all these grand plans to do great things this Easter. Some of them got done but a lot of them are still in my “to do” pile. Crud. At 6am when I was getting ready to pack my kid’s lunch for school I remembered I wanted to pack their lunch a little differently. […]

oh that looks really good, and we only have those chips at the bulk food store, so at least I have that going for me right?
I found that if you ask at Great Harvest Bread they will sell you their chips by the pound. They are smaller than what you buy in the store. We bought a few pounds and keep them in the freezer.
Oh my gosh! Great to know! I will ask next time I go in. Thank you!
This is the most delicious bread ever! I love all the ways cinnamon chips can be used in baking. Your loaves are beautiful, Erin.
This looks so delicious.
Sounds delicious! But a question – does this dough get kneaded at all?
I’ve never heard of cinnamon chips before. I love cinnamon – I’ll need to get me some of those once baking season starts 🙂
The only tip on bread making is practice! Your bread looks delicious–I’ve just discovered cinnamon chips. they are fun.
Great Harvest is a dangerous store, all of their bread is yummy.
I cannot wait to make my own cinnamon chips and then this bread.
Yummy! This looks delish! Would love if you’d join our Countdown to Fall link party! Hope to see you there! Have a great week!

This looks divine…a bread I know I’d love too! Thanks so much for sharing at Mix it up Monday 🙂
Yummy! That looks so good. Thanks for sharing at Sharing Saturday!
Erin you are putting me over the edge with all these fabulous recipes!!! I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for the cinnamon chips….now I will be on a serious mission for them to make this bread recipe!!! 🙂
If you have a WinCo in your area, they carry cinnamon chips year round.
Tonight is my third attempt at making this bread. I live in Alaska and have had a lot of problems getting the bread to rise at all. So the first two loafs weren’t very good. I let the bread rise this time for well over three hours and it is looking much better. It is now baking and I am ready to eat!
My guess would be that you are using too little flour. The reason I say this is because your dough looks overly wet, similar to a sweet bread (like zucchini or pumpkin) batter. I’ve always been afraid of using too much flour, but I’ve recently realized that I’ve been using too little flour for a long time. It makes the dough saggy (if you set it out in a mound it won’t hold its shape and will spread out), and it is very hard to work with. Since adding a little more flour, my rolls, bread, and especially cinnamon rolls have been so much easier to work with and have turned out better. Generally you want to be able to handle your dough without first having to completely cover your bread or hands with flour. Try adding more flour and see what happens. In general, yeast doughs should look smooth, not wet. You could also try increasing each of your rising times to 1 or 1 1/2 hours and see what happens. Good luck!
Thanks for the cinnamon chip recipe. I’m going to try it out!
I have a problem with the chips melting when adding to dough, third time I think I will freeze them beforehand and try that.
