Create rolls which have a shape of a rectangle ¼ inch thick and about 9 inches on the shorter side. Brush the dough with melted butter. Mix the ingredients. Mix thoroughly by stirring the cinnamon and the granulated sugar in a small utensil like a bowl. Make an even layer of this mixture over the butter.
- Roll the dough, beginning from the shorter side, rolls the dough tightly. Transfer the dough. Transfer the dough to the greased loaf pan.
