Oh, I hope you all can help...
I made a batch of Cinnamon Bread tonight, from an "Amish Cinnamon Bread" starter (I seriously doubt the Amish have always used instant vanilla pudding mix in their breads). And things...went awry. I made the same recipe 10 days ago, and the middle of the bread fell. I suspect it has something to do with me living at high altitude (a little over a mile up).
This time, however, the pans overflowed. A lot. One minute, it smelled divine, and the next, smoke as the batter (yes, batter, not dough) hit the heating element. I'm not sure if it's a fermentation issue, or if the pans I used this time (my mother's set) are smaller than the ones I used last time, or if it's something else.
I cleaned it up, and tried to salvage the remaining bread. That seems to have worked, as it is cooked through and still tastes lovely. But it looks really ugly. Is there another way to use this? I was hoping to bring it to a gathering this coming week to share, and really don't want to bring it in its current condition. Does anyone have a recipe for a dessert that would use bits of cinnamon bread? If it matters, it's a pretty dense bread, and fairly moist. If not, I will keep both loaves here and my brother and I will snack on them, and I'll just bring the cookies people have been asking for.
Thank you in advance!
