Monkey Bread Cinnamon Bun Ring (Bread Maker Bubble Bun)

Step 1: Whisk flour before measuring, soften margarine in the microwave. Place dough ingredients in bread maker pan in order listed. Set on Dough setting. Press start

Step 2: During the first mixing check to assure your dough has the right amount of flour and water - dough should look nice and shiny. Flours differ so you may need to add lukewarm water a teaspoon at a time if it is too dry - a sprinkling of flour if too sticky. Never add more then 3 tablespoons of either the flour or the water. In my breadmaker the whisked flour and the carefully measured ingredients are right on

Step 3: In small bowl melt butter in microwave, in a second bowl mix sugar and cinnamon; set aside. (I pour boiling water over raisins and leave for 5 minutes - drain, blot dry on paper towel)

Step 4: When bread cycle complete, remove dough punch down. Divide into equal pieces about the size of a walnut, roll each piece into a smooth ball

Step 5: Roll each ball in melted butter then in cinnamon-sugar mix. Place in greased bundt pan, repeat layers, sprinkle raisins between layers

Step 6: Mix remaining butter and sugar together, pour over top. Cover, let rise in a warm draft free place, 30 to 45 minutes

Step 7: Bake at 350 for about 40 - 45 minutes or until nicely browned and done (ovens vary)

Step 8: Cool in pan for 5 minutes on a wire rack. Invert on serving plate after the five minute cool.

Step 9: Enjoy
