Zubereitung von Love Knots
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add warm milk, melted butter, granulated sugar, eggs, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until a stiff dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1-1 1/2 hours.
- Punch down the dough to release the air.
- Divide the dough into three equal portions. Cover two portions with plastic wrap to prevent drying.
- Shape one portion of the dough into 12 equal-sized balls.
- Roll each ball into an 8-inch rope.
- In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon for the topping.
- Dip each cinnamon rope into melted butter, then coat generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Tie each rope into a knot. Tuck and pinch the ends underneath to secure.
- Place the Love Knots on ungreased baking sheets.
- Repeat steps 8-13 with the remaining dough portions.
- Cover the baking sheets loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes, until almost doubled.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
