Instructions

1. Mix warm milk, crumbled yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar together and let stand for 5 minutes.
2. In the meantime, mix the flour, 75 g butter, sugar, vanilla sugar and salt. Then add the milk mixture and knead into a homogeneous mass. Cover and let the yeast dough rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.
3. Mix cinnamon and 200 g sugar in a zipper bag.
4. Preheat the oven to 180 ° C top / bottom heat and grease a cup cake pan very well with butter or margarine (a lot helps a lot in this case).
5. Roll out the yeast dough into a rectangle with a height of approx. 1 to 2 cm. Use a knife to cut squares about 2 x 2 cm in size. Then the small yeast cubes are placed in the zipper bag with the cinnamon-sugar mixture, shaken briefly and placed in the cake pan. About 10 yeast cubes can be put into the bag at the same time.
6. Melt 125 g butter over low heat and add the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Pour the butter over the yeast cubes in the cake pan.
7. Bake the baobab in a hot oven for 45 minutes. After the baking time has expired, let the bread cool down for approx. 5 minutes with the oven door closed. Then turn the bread out of the mold.
8. There may be a few cubes left in the mold. Don`t panic, that`s half the game - just put the cubes back in their original place. But be careful - hot!
9. Tip: You can also pimp the baobab a little by placing one or two small diced apples between the cinnamon and sugar cubes (before adding the butter). Alternatively, I can also recommend raisins and cranberries.
10. Affenbrot, also known as monkey bread, is a soft, sticky and sweet pastry that is consumed as finger food. It originated in the United States and its name comes from the fact that the consumer picks up these pastries like a monkey.
