Cinnamon Nut Wreath

I need another "Dish to Pass".  This bread looked so pretty in the recipe that I decided to try it.  I used my goto Challah bread recipe as the base.


After the first rise, I rolled it out into a rectangle.  Then dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar mix.  Added chopped cashews.  Rolled it into a log.  Pulled the log into a circle.

 Put a can in the middle to keep the center open.

 After it had risen a bit, I used kitchen shears to cut segments 2/3 of the way to the center and then twisted each segment.

 It was allowed to rise more, then baked at 350º.

It's not super sweet.

If you wanted a sweet filling, there should probably also be sugar or brown sugar in the filling.

It could also be served with strawberry butter or strawberry cream cheese.

Wouldn't that be nice!
