Greetings! Today let’s make a Pineapple Cream Cheese Braid with some of the sweet dough that we used in the sticky buns last week. It is always a great thing when you have more than one recipe that you can use something in. Knowing that you can make this dough ahead of time and freeze it in recipe portions and use it when ever you want for whatever tickles your fancy.
This time around the recipe is the same with the exception of the addition of some vanilla extract and some Fiore d’Scillia which is a wonderful flavoring that I discovered last year. I purchase that from the King Arthur Flour Website. If you have never gone there and you are a foodie, prepare yourself for foodie overload and ingredient nirvana! I will post a link below.
I filled this with a cream cheese filling that was blended together with some powdered sugar and an egg along with some more of the Fiore flavoring and vanilla. spread it on top and then put some homemade pineapple jam.
The technique for braiding the loaf is really simple and can be applied to any stuffed bread dough. I have seen these filled with taco filling, and even scrambled eggs and ham. Of course you would not use a sweet dough for either of the latter.
I hope you try this and I hope you enjoy it. As always, Happy Eating!

They have a 1 ounce bottle, but the larger one is a better value. You make the choice yourself, but if one ounce is $9.00 and 4 ounces is $20.00 I don’t see why you should waste your money on the smaller one. Trust me, this large bottle will last you for at least 5 years. You only use 1/8 teaspoon each time. It is very strong because it contains orange oil and is very potent.
