WATCH: Cinnamon roll challah. Need we say more? We wish you all a sweet shabbat! Via: Jewlicious

Ingredients:

Dough-
2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 teaspoon honey
2/3 cup warm water
3 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs (and another 1 for egg wash)
4 cups flour

Filling-
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon honey

How it’s done:

First you need to activate the yeast. Whisk the yeast with 1 teaspoon of honey and warm water and wait a few minutes until it looks foamy.
Add 3 tablespoons of honey, the olive oil, salt and eggs. Mix with a wooden spoon and gradually add in the flour. When the dough forms into a ball, knead for 5 minutes. Cover the dough and let it rise for 1 hour.
While you’re waiting you can make the filling. Mix together the vegetable oil, brown and white sugar, cinnamon, salt and honey.
Preheat oven to 375 °F or 190 °C.
When the dough has doubled in size, separate it into 3 equal parts. Shape each part into a ball, and roll into a circle. Spread the cinnamon filling onto each of the 3 circles and roll into a long rope.
Stretch the ropes as long as you can and braid. Pinch the ends.
Brush the braided dough with egg wash (which is just a beaten egg) and sprinkle coarse sugar on top.
Bake for 30 minutes. If the top begins to brown too quickly you can cover it with foil.
