How to make nut rolls
Dough
- Knead flour, butter, honey or sweetener of choice, yeast and milk. Work in the egg yolks, sour cream and salt too and dough until getting an even texture.
- Put dough into a big bowl with a lid on top and let it rise in a 68°F – 81°F /20°C – 27°C place.
Nut filling
- Mix ground walnut, honey, raisin, lemon zest, vanilla, rum extract and milk together.
- On medium to low heat, bring the milk to boil while stirring continuously. Take it off the heat and wait until it cools down otherwise it will ruin the dough.
Assembly
- Dust the work surface with flour then divide the dough into 2 parts. Work with one piece at a time, roll out the dough into a ⅛” / 3mm high rectangular shape, the length of our baking tray.
- Fill half of it along one of the long side of the dough. Mind to leave an empty stripe on one side otherwise the dough can’t be closed properly.
- Roll the dough up. Repeat the process with the remaining dough and filling.
- Place them onto a buttered or parchment papered baking tray. Brush the top with egg-wash and punch holes alongside with a fork.
- Place the dough into the middle rack of a 350°F / 180°C preheated oven then bake until the internal temperature reaches 185°F / 85°C and the top gets a golden brown color, which should happen in about 20-30 minutes depending on the oven.
