Let's Bake Together

Cinnamon Star Bread

Jump to recipe

Stop what you’re doing. Head to your closest grocery store, get what you need to make this bread (don’t forget the potato flour), then head to your kitchen and start baking. Honestly, this bread is the bread of your fall/winter/holiday dreams!

Potato flour sounds weird, right? But you guys, it makes this bread so soft and pillowy you’ll probably never look back. And bonus – you can use it to thicken soups and sauces without having to use regular flour! If potato flour isn’t your thing, you can substitute the same amount of instant mashed potato flakes, but I highly encourage the potato flour route. You won’t regret it.

This bread is the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving or holiday table. It comes together surprisingly quickly and easily for a bread, it’s a beautiful shape, and it’s filled with cinnamon which is really what the last couple months of the year are all about.

We top this bread with powdered sugar and it basically looks like a beautifully snowy winter star. It pulls apart perfectly and is great for sharing with friends and family.

After all, that’s what the holiday season is all about right? Sharing with and spending time with family and friends. I have a small family (there are 5 of us, everyone else lives in England), but I share everything I make with them and they’ve tested just about every recipe on this blog for me. Family is the best.

Now, stop reading and start baking! You’ve got some soft star-shaped cinnamon bread in your future.

Muffin time! I really love a good muffin. It probably comes from my…ambivalence…about frosting. Don’t get me wrong, cakes and cupcakes covered in frosting have their place in the world, I just prefer muffins filled with fruit and just a little chocolate. Blackberries and chocolate […]
