Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml Whole milk
- 60 g Unsalted butter
- 50 g Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1.5 tsp Ground cardamom
- 400 g All-purpose flour
- 2.25 tsp Instant yeast
- 75 g Softened unsalted butter (filling)
- 50 g Brown sugar (filling)
- 1 tsp Ground cardamom (filling)
- 1 piece Egg (for egg wash)
- 15 ml Water (for egg wash)
- 2 tbsp Pearl sugar or granulated sugar (for topping)
Instructions
Add the milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and ground cardamom to the bread machine's pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Add the flour on top of the liquid ingredients, ensuring it covers them completely. Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast.
Select the dough cycle on your bread machine and press start. Allow the dough to mix, knead, and rise until the cycle is complete (approximately 1.5 hours).
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling by mixing the softened butter, brown sugar, and ground cardamom in a small bowl until well combined.
Once the dough cycle completes, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a large rectangle, approximately 30x40 cm.
Spread the cardamom filling evenly over the dough, covering the surface entirely.
Fold the dough into thirds, like a letter, by folding one third over the center and then the remaining third on top. You should now have a smaller rectangle.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the folded dough into 12 strips.
Take each strip and twist it several times, then tie it into a loose knot. Tuck the ends underneath to secure the shape.
Place the shaped rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each roll. Cover them with a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 30 minutes until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
Prepare the egg wash by whisking together the egg and water in a small bowl.
Brush each roll with the egg wash and sprinkle with pearl sugar or granulated sugar.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
