  • Cinnamon-Sugar Filling:
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 T ground cinnamon
  • Mix together.
  • I didn't use all of the cinnamon-
  • sugar mixture in the King Cake
  • To Make King Cake Dough:
  • Add warm water to a small bowl
  • Sprinkle in yeast and 2 t sugar
  • Stir and set the bowl in a warm place for 10 minutes
  • Or until the yeast bubbles and
  • Mixture almost doubles in volume
  • Combine 4 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 c sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon
  • And salt in a large mixing bowl
  • Stir in the lemon zest
  • Make a well in the center and
  • Pour in the yeast mixture and warm milk
  • Add the eggs and egg yolks
  • Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients
  • Cut/rub in 1/2 cup butter, 1 T at a time
  • Continue to fold and combine until the dough
  • Can be formed into a soft ball shape
  • The dough will be sticky
  • Place ball on a floured surface
  • Incorporate more flour if needed
  • 1 T at a time
  • Knead until smooth and elastic
  • Brush the inside of a large bowl with 1 T of softened butter
  • Set dough in bowl
  • Turn to coat with butter
  • At this point the dough can be refrigerated overnight
  • Bring dough up to room temperature when ready to continue
  • Cover bowl and set aside for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or
  • Until doubled in volume
  • Use remaining 1 T of butter to butter a baking sheet
  • Punch dough down on a lightly floured surface
  • Using a floured rolling pin
  • Roll the dough out to roughly 30" x 9" rectangle
  • The dough will be thin
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture
  • Down the length of the dough
  • Fold long edge half way over cinnamon-sugar mixture
  • Slowly roll up the dough into a cylinder, jelly-roll style
  • I found that a dough scraper helped to roll the dough,
  • just be careful not to puncture the dough.
  • Place on the baking sheet
  • Form dough into a ring
  • Pinch ends together
  • Cover and set aside
  • Let rise for 45 minutes to an hour
