Mix together the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Pre-heat the oven to 180ºC and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
Once the dough has risen, roll it out to approximately 2cm thick (on a floured surface) then spread over the brown sugar mixture.
Roll into a tight coil then cut off the edges. Make a slit, all the way down the dough then braid the two halves together. Bring the edges together and pinch to form a ring.
Place the breakfast ring on the prepared baking sheet and place in the oven.
Allow to bake for 35-45 minutes or until the ring is golden brown and cooked through.
In the meanwhile, combine all the syrup ingredients in a saucepan and allow to cook for 10 minutes.
When the ring is baked, remove from the oven and brush with the syrup. Allow to cool for 15 minutes then slice and serve.
