Instructions

Activate the yeast by mixing warm water with sugar; sprinkle yeast on top and let sit until foamy (10-15 minutes).
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; add activated yeast mixture and olive oil; mix until a sticky dough forms.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 12 hours for the first rise.
Grease a baking pan, pour in melted butter, then transfer dough into the pan; let rise for another 1½ to 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 450°F; create dimples in the dough with wet fingers and drizzle with cinnamon topping mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown; cool slightly before icing.
