• Punch dough down. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll into a 16 x 8 inch rectangle. Brush egg white over entire surface.
• Combine 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over dough.
• Starting at long side, roll up dough tightly, jellyroll fashion. Pinch seam to seal.
• Cut roll into 16 (1-inch) slices, using string or dental floss.
• Arrange slices, cut sides up, in a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan coated with vegetable cooking spray.
• Cover and let rise 30 minutes or till doubled in bulk.
