Ingredients

1 envelope active dry yeast 1/4 cup warm water (100-110 degrees F) 3/4 cup milk, scalded 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) margarine 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 3 1/2 cups (about) flour 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 egg 2 cups peeled, chopped apples 1 cup powdered sugar 2 tablespoons hot water

  Sprinkle yeast over warm water and set aside for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine hot milk, margarine, sugar and salt in a large mixer bowl; let stand until margarine melts. Beat in 1 cup flour. Add yeast mixture, cinnamon and egg, beating until combined. If using a heavy-duty mixer, beat in remaining flour to make a sticky dough. If using a hand mixer, stir in remaining flour with a spoon.

Turn dough onto a floured board and knead 5 to 10 minutes, until soft and elastic, adding additional flour if necessary. Place dough in a greased bowl and turn to grease top. Cover and let rise about 1 1/2 hours, until doubled in bulk; or cover and let rise overnight in the refrigerator. Bring dough to room temperature before continuing.

Punch down dough and divide into thirds. Shape one-third of dough into a flat disc. Chop roughly with a sharp knife. Toss with one-third of the apples. Arrange apples and dough in six mounds on a greased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and apples. Cover and let rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.

Uncover and bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes, or until golden. While still warm, drizzle with glaze made by stirring together powdered sugar and water. When cool, store in plastic bags.
