Donut Loaf



Donut Loaf! Perfect breakfast or just a random treat :D
~Recipe
2 cups warm water
2/3 cups sugar plus two tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup vegi oil
6 cups bread flour
1/2 cup butter Melted
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon

In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water, and then stir in yeast. Allow to proof until yeast resembles a creamy foam.               
Mix salt and oil into the yeast. Mix in flour one cup at a time. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Place in a well oiled bowl, and turn dough to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.               
Punch dough down. Knead for a few minutes, and divide in half. Shape into loaves, and place into two well oiled 9x5 inch loaf pans. Allow to rise for 30 minutes, or until dough has risen 1 inch above pans. Brush melted butter over loaves and sprinkle with two tablespoons of sugar and also cinnamon.
Bake at 350 degrees 30 minutes.

Glaze
2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla (or any flavoring, I really like Maple)
1/3 cup milk
cinnamon

Whisk together and pour over warm loaves. You can also melt chocolate and pour over or decorate with sprinkles.
