How to Make Taco Bell Style Cinnamon Twists

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  3. Add the oil, salt, and eggs. Beat well.
  4. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  6. Punch down the dough and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter or a knife to cut out circles.
  7. Place the circles onto the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. While still warm, toss the twists in your choice of cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar. Enjoy immediately!
