6 c. flour, plus two later
filling (can double this if you like a lot of filling):
1 c. butter

4-6 t. cinnamon
Dissolve sugar and yeast in water; set aside. In large bowl mix pudding as directed. Add melted margarine,eggs, and salt. Mix well. Blend in yeast mix. Gradually add flour. Knead dough while adding another 1 to 1 1/2 c. more flour. Knead until smooth. Cover and let rise in well greased bowl. Let rise until double, punch down and roll out on floured surface approximately 34x21 inches. Spread with butter. Top with brown sugar and cinnamon. Add nuts and raisins if wanted.
