Ingredients

Dough Ingredients

300 milliliters warm milk (10.1 fluid ounces)
10 grams yeast (0.35 ounces)
50 grams sugar (1.75 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
80 grams butter (2.8 ounces)
600-750 grams flour (21-26.5 ounces)

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk and yeast, stirring gently until dissolved. This will take about 5 minutes.

Next, add sugar, salt, and the egg to the bowl. Mix well until fully incorporated.

Gradually add flour, starting with 600 grams and mixing until a soft dough forms. You may need to use a little more flour as needed, up to 750 grams.

Finally, add the softened butter and knead the dough for about 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.

Step 2

Let Dough Rise

After kneading, place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

Step 3

Prepare Filling

While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, mix softened butter with sugar until it becomes a creamy consistency. Set aside.

Step 4

Shape and Fill Rolls

Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a rectangle.

Spread the prepared filling evenly over the surface of the dough, then roll it up tightly from one end to the other.

Cut the rolled dough into equal pieces, approximately 2.5 centimeters each, and place them in a greased baking dish.

Step 5

Bake the Rolls

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

Once preheated, place the baking dish in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 6

Serve and Enjoy

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these delicious sweet rolls warm or at room temperature with your favorite beverage.

Servings

These pastries are best served warm, but **the magic doesn’t stop there!**

Imagine enjoying them with a drizzle of honey or a spread of jam for breakfast. 🍯✨

You could even serve them alongside a decadent cup of coffee or tea to **create the ultimate cozy atmosphere.** ☕🫖

For a celebratory touch, dust the top with powdered sugar or add a dollop of whipped cream before serving. Everyone will love the appealing look! 😍

Equipment

Baking Tray

A sturdy baking tray will help distribute heat evenly for a perfect bake. Line it with parchment paper to make cleanup a breeze.

This handy tool will assist you when handling the dough, making it easier to shape and lift without damaging it.

Variations

Not everyone can enjoy traditional pastries, but don’t worry!

For a **gluten-free** option, simply substitute regular flour with gluten-free flour blends like almond or coconut flour, adjusting the liquid accordingly. 🥥🌾

If you're looking for a **vegan** twist, use plant-based milk, swap out the egg for flaxseed or chia egg, and substitute butter with coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative. 🌱✨

Faq

  • What should I do if my dough is too sticky?

    If your dough is sticky, gradually add a little more flour until you achieve a soft, workable consistency. Remember, it’s better to add flour slowly than to put in too much at once!

  • How can I tell if my pastries are done baking?

    Your pastries are ready when they turn a golden brown color and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Trust your eyes and ears!

  • Can I freeze these pastries after baking?

    Absolutely! To freeze, make sure they cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container. They can last for up to 2 months in the freezer!

  • How can I enhance the flavor of my pastries?

    Try adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to your dough for an extra flavor kick. You can also experiment with vanilla extract for that lovely aromatic touch!

    Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or in the fridge for longer freshness. Make sure they’re cool before sealing to avoid sogginess!
