Maple Twist Coffee Cake

  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon maple flavoring
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2-3/4 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • FILLING:
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon maple flavoring
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • GLAZE:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon maple flavoring

 Directions

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add the butter, sugar, egg, maple flavoring, salt and 1-1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sugar, walnuts, cinnamon and maple flavoring; set aside.
Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into thirds. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle; place one circle on a greased baking sheet or 12-in. pizza pan. Spread with a third of the butter; sprinkle with a third of the filling. Repeat layers twice. Pinch edges of dough to seal.
Carefully place a glass in center of circle. With scissors, cut from outside edge just to the glass, forming 16 wedges. Remove glass; twist each wedge five to six times. Pinch ends to seal and tuck under. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 375° until golden brown, 18-20 minutes. In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients; set aside. Carefully remove coffee cake from pan by running a metal spatula under it to loosen; transfer to a wire rack. Drizzle with glaze.
