Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
Sweet bread dough
3 large Golden Delicious apples
1/2 cup Sugar

Thaw dough at room temperature for 2 hours on a cutting board lightly
sprayed with vegetable oil, or until thawed. Pat into a 10 inch circle on
cutting board. Cover with a cloth and let rise for about 1 hour, or in an
air-condition- ed house for 2 hours, or until doubled in bulk. Dough may
be thaws overnight in fridge in a bowl lightly coated with veg oil spray.
Pat into a 10 inch circle and continue with recipe.

Peel and core apples and slice into a bowl. Toss with sugar and cinnamon
and let stand 30 minutes. When dough has risen remove apple mixture from
bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving juices. Pile onto dough. Draw dough up
around apples. With a large, sharp knife, slice bundle about 5 or 6 times
across, then 5 or 6 times in the other direction. With knife, gently mix
by lifting dough and apples from bottom and piling on top. The dough
pieces should be about 2 inches square.

With a spatula, gently mound mixture on a lightly greased baking sheet,
reshaping into a circle and making sure most of the filling touches the
dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until puffy and brown.
Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before removing from baking
sheet. To reheat, bake at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes, or until heated
through.
