   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/2  teaspoon      Cinnamon
                         Sweet bread dough
    3      large         Golden Delicious apples
      1/2  cup           Sugar
 
 Thaw dough at room temperature for 2 hours on a cutting board lightly 
 sprayed with vegetable oil, or until thawed. Pat into a 10 inch circle on 
 cutting board.  Cover with a cloth and let rise for about 1 hour, or in an 
 air-condition- ed house for 2 hours, or until doubled in bulk. Dough may 
 be thaws overnight in fridge in a bowl lightly coated with veg oil spray. 
 Pat into a 10 inch circle and continue with recipe.
 
  Peel and core apples and slice into a bowl.  Toss with sugar and cinnamon 
 and let stand 30 minutes.  When dough has risen remove apple mixture from 
 bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving juices. Pile onto dough. Draw dough up 
 around apples. With a large, sharp knife, slice bundle about 5 or 6 times 
 across, then 5 or 6 times in the other direction.  With knife, gently mix 
 by lifting dough and apples from bottom and piling on top. The dough 
 pieces should be about 2 inches square.
 
  With a spatula, gently mound mixture on a lightly greased baking sheet, 
 reshaping into a circle and making sure most of the filling touches the 
 dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until puffy and brown. 
 Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before removing from baking 
 sheet. To reheat, bake at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes, or until heated 
 through.
