How to Make Nut Roll

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 1/4 cup warm milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and 1 teaspoon salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
  3. Gradually add 4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare your chosen filling (see individual filling recipes below).
  6. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a 12x18 inch rectangle.
  7. Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
  8. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log.
  9. Cut the log into 4 equal pieces.
  10. Place the nut rolls seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  11. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  12. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  13. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  14. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
