This is so fun to make and looks so pretty too. People will think you spent all day on it. Can use cinnamon instead of maple for Cinnamon Twist. I have also used cocoa powder and sugar with nutella.

    When yeast has bloomed, add beaten eggs, sugar and oil. Mix well.

  4. 4

    With dough hook attatchment, on lowest setting, start adding flour and salt mixture.

  5. 5

    Knead on medium speed about 5 minutes. Scraping down sides few times.

  6. 6

    The dough should be slightly pulling away from sides. It should just barely stick to your finger when tested.

  7. 7

    If it is too sticky, add a little more flour and knead another minute.

  8. 8

    Let dough rise in warm place until doubled in size.

  9. 9

    Punch down dough and turn out on heavily floured surface.

  10. 10

    Knead with hands until dough is elastic and does not stick to hands. Usually a couple minutes.

  11. 11

    Divide dough into 3 equal balls.

  12. 12

    Spray a round pizza pan with non stick spray.

  13. 13

    Stretch and roll out first ball to fit inside bottom of pan.

  16. 16

    Repeat with next two balls of dough laying next layer over top of last.

  17. 17

    When you have all 3 layers ready, use 2 inch round lid or such to make indent of circle in middle of dough. Do not cut just make slight impression.

  18. 18

    Starting from outside of the circle in the middle, use a sharp knife or pizza cutter is best, cut 16 equal wedges.

  19. 19

    I start out like cutting a pizza and just cut 8 in half to make 16 wedges.

  20. 20

    Take 2 strands and twist in opposite directions and pinch ends together of two strands. Repeat with all strips.

  21. 21

    Bake at 350 for roughly 20 to 30 minutes. Check at 20. Cook until golden brown and no longer doughy in middle.

  22. 22

    Sometime i lay foil over top when it starts to brown then finish browning after center is set.

  23. 23

    Brush with melted butter. Serve warm or room temperature.
