1 envelope active dry yeast
1/4 C. warm water (100-110 degrees F)
3/4 C. milk, scalded
1/4 C. (4 Tbsp.) margarine
1/4 C. sugar
1/2 tea. salt
3 1/2 C. (about) flour
1 1/2 tea. cinnamon
1 egg
2 C. peeled, chopped apples
1 C. powdered sugar
2 Tbsp. hot water

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

Meanwhile, combine hot milk, margarine, sugar and salt in a lrg. mixer bowl; let stand until margarine melts. Beat in 1 C. 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 min., until soft and elastic, adding additional flour if necessary. Place dough in a prepared bowl and turn to grease top. Cover and let rise about 1 1/2 hr., 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 prepared cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and apples. Cover and let rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, about 1 hr..

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