3 large egg yolks
~~poppyseed filling~~
1/2 lb ground poppyseed
1/2 tsp salt

  • 2. Mix flour and butter, add yolks add yeast mixture and work with hands until dough is not sticky and hands are clean.
  • 3. roll out thin, a small piece at a time. Fill with either nut filling or poppyseed filling and roll. Put on cookie sheet and set aside for about 30 minutes in a nice warm place. Let rise. Also Apricot filling is also very delicious, You can use apricot preserves if you do ot like poppyseed or nut fillings.
  • 4. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes. Delicious Enjoy Above recipe is a Kolacky recipe that is fast. Most Kolacky take much longer because they are left to rise twice.
  • 5. Poppyseed Filling: Combine all the ingredients and cook until the milk is absorbed. Spred on dough and roll up jelly roll fashion pinch edges. Let rise for 30 minutes
  • 6. Walnut Filling: Course grind one pound of walnut meats, Combine with warm milk, butter, and sugar stir well with a wisk until most of the sugar is dissolved, sugar does not have to be totaly dissolved add ground nut meats and spred out on rolled dough. Roll up jelly roll fashion and pinch edges. Let rise for 30 minutes Enjoy

  • 8. Variation: Cultural Explosion: For my Cream Cheese and Guava filling, take a four ounce package of cream cheese the small one, leave out to soften, then add 1/4 cup powdered sugar and blend in well. The cheese should be very soft to spread easily Spread this cream cheese on the dough, then take guava marmalade (Conchita, Ancel or Goya are brands I buy in the Latin food markets) Guava marmalade comes in a can. Take a large tablespoon and put a few spoonfulls of the marmalade over the cream cheese and spred all over the cream cheese. Then roll jelly roll fashion. Pinch edges or fold under so spread wont come out. Follow the recipe above and bake. Delicious.

Cream Cheese Pastry Nut Rolls (Rugelach) image

I took elements of other recipes and combined them into this one. I need a printed copy for a cookie exchange, so I'm posting it here and sharing it wth you all. I just hope no one hates them. :-) Prep time includes chilling.

Provided by Laura2of7

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup butter, room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg yolk (optional)
2 cups flour, plus extra for dusting work surface
1 cup apricot preserves (one 12 oz. jar)
1 cup walnuts or 1 cup pecans, finely chopped
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt (a large pinch)
1 egg white

Steps:

  • Cream first four ingredients together until smooth. (You may add in the yolk from the egg white if you like. I didn't, but it wouldn't hurt.).
  • Mix in the flour to make a soft dough.
  • Divide the dough iinto four equal balls. Flatten and wrap in plastic or waxed paper. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Melt the preserves, either on the stove in a saucepan or in the microwave, using either a glass or ceramic dish. Allow to cool slightly.
  • In a small bowl, combine nuts with sugar, cinnamon and pinch of salt. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Working with one disk of dough at a time, roll out on a floured surface into a thin circle about 10 inches in diameter.
  • Put 1/4 cup of melted preserves on top of the dough and spread evenly, leaving 1/2 inch around the edge uncovered. (Pick off any really large pieces of fruit. It will be easier to roll.).
  • Place a "shot" glass upside down in the center of the circle and sprinkle 1/4 of the nut mixture over the rest of the preserve-covered dough. (This also makes it easier to roll. Remove the glass before cutting.).
  • With a rotary cutter, or very sharp knife, cut the circle into 12 equal wedges. Roll up each wedge, startng with the outside edge and ending with the point. Turn the ends in to form a crescent, if desired.
  • Place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Beat egg white with 1 teaspoon of water and brush on tops. Dust with sugar, if desired.
  • Bake until golden, 16-18 minutes (depending on your oven).
  • Cool completely on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.
  • Repeat with the other three circles of dough.
  • As a variation, omit the apricot preserves and brush the dough with egg wash before sprinkling with nut mixture. Or leave out the nuts and use the preserves alone, with a bit of cinnamon sprinkled on the tops. Either way would be good.

SOURDOUGH FRUIT AND NUT ROLLS



Sourdough Fruit and Nut Rolls image

Crusty sourdough rolls with dried cranberries and walnuts are a treat for the senses with sweet fruit, buttery nuts, and a tangy chewy crumb that is 2/3 whole grain wheat and rye.

Provided by Melissa Johnson

Categories     Recipes

Time 1h2m

Number Of Ingredients 8

250g whole grain bread flour (1 1/2 cups)
45g home-milled unsifted rye berries (1/3 cup)
155g all purpose flour (1 cup + ~1 Tbsp)
410g water (1 3/4 - 1 7/8 cup)
75g sourdough starter (1/4 cup)
9g salt (1.5 tsp)
100g dried cranberries (1 cup)
100g raw or toasted walnuts (1 cup small nut pieces, 1 heaping cup nut halves)

Steps:

  • Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl until incorporated. Cover and let rest 30 minutes. Stretch and fold the dough 3-4 times during the next 2-3 hours at 30-60 minute intervals.
  • Let the dough continue to rise for several hours more, keeping an eye on puffiness and growth. Because of the heavy dried fruit and nuts, you will not see big bubbles on the dough surface or major aeration through the underside of your bowl, but the dough will roughly double in size. You can also refrigerate the dough for part of the bulk fermentation. When you bring the dough out of the cold, flip it once in the bowl so the top of the dough gets moist again.
  • Flour your counter and scrape the dough out onto it. If you have a scale, place your bowl on it and tare it. Then divide the dough into six pieces, each weighing approximately 180-190g (a little less than the original dough weight divided by six, to account for some bowl mess).
  • Shape the six pieces of dough into balls, and place them on two pieces of parchment paper on a cookie sheet or baking pan with sides (this helps the plastic cover not touch the rolls). If you are baking in an oval baker, use a rectangular piece of parchment paper. If you are baking in a round baker, use a square piece of parchment paper.
  • You can easily fit three rolls into round bakers that are 5 qt and larger. Three rolls also fit in the Breadtopia oval clay baker (see photo gallery), but they will likely need to be pulled apart after baking. To avoid the rolls adhering to each other, you can bake three batches of two rolls.
  • Put the entire pan/sheet into a plastic bag and let the rolls proof for 0.5-1.5 hours depending on room temperature.
  • Preheat your oven with your baking vessel(s) inside for 30 minutes at 475F.
  • When the oven is preheated and the rolls proofed, uncover your rolls, lightly dust them with flour and score the tops. With all the bumpy nuts and berries, a simple ) or + works best.
  • Take out the baking vessels, lift the parchment into the vessels, cover and return them to the oven.
  • Bake at 475F
  • 10 minutes lid on
  • 10-12 minutes lid off
  • If you are baking multiple batches, leave the lid in the oven after you take it off at the ten-minute mark. That way your entire baking vessel is hot and ready to go for round two. Also, if you have space, put your second batch of rolls in the refrigerator while batch one is baking.

GLUTEN FREE MACADAMIA NUT CINNAMON ROLLS MADE WITH GF BISQUICK M



Gluten Free Macadamia Nut Cinnamon Rolls Made With Gf Bisquick M image

This is a cinnamon roll recipe that uses the new gluten free bisquick mix. I'd been craving cinnamon rolls for WEEKS, and being that my husband has celiac disease, I keep a gluten free kitchen. I wanted to use the new gluten free bisquick mix that my mother in law gave us, but there were no recipes for cinnamon rolls which used it, so I made my own. I added macadamia nuts, because that's what I had on hand, but pecans or walnuts would be SO YUMMY too!

Time 37m

Yield 10-12 Cinnamon Rolls, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 cups of gluten free Bisquick baking mix
1/2 milk
1/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons melted butter
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 cup other nuts or 1 cup raisins
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Butter a 9X13 baking pan and preheat the oven to 375.
  • In a large bowl, mix the bisquick mix with the milk, sugar, salt, eggs, and ½ of the melted butter. The dough should be a bit moist, but able to be handled with dusted hands.
  • Dust your work surface with bisquick (I also added some corn starch for the dusting) and place the dough in the center. Knead 2 or three times, dust the top of the dough.
  • roll out (rectangles are good, but circles work too, GF dough is harder to work with!) brush the remaining melted butter on the flattened dough and sprinkle the filling ingredients evenly all over it. (You can pre mix the filling ingredients, or just add them evenly on top, either works fine.).
  • CAREFULLY roll your dough into a spiral, pinching the end into itself to hold it together. Cut the dough with a large kitchen knife, and set rolls into your buttered dish. Bake for 22 minutes.
  • For the frosting, mix the two cups of powdered sugar with the other ingredients (I mix them in a measuring cup to drizzle on top of the rolls when they're ready.
  • Allow the rolls to cool for about 10 min, then serve drizzled with frosting, YUM!

European holiday staple. Nearly all the slavic and hungarian people bake this for the holidays. In my catering and bakery I use this recipe which has come down through several generations. I have broken down the recipe which delivers four nutrolls. It may be doubled and filled with poppy seed, prune, cream cheese, etc. I have included only the Nut Filling which follows the dough directions.

Provided by Jewel Hall

Categories     Sweet Breads

Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 pkg active dry yeast
1 1/4 c milk
1/4 c granulated sugar
1/4 c butter, unsalted
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
6 Tbsp butter, softened
1/2 c brown sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 recipe maple nut glaze

Steps:

  • 1. In a large mixer bowl combine 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour and yeast. Heat the milk, granulated sugar, the 1/4 cup butter and salt just until mixture is warm (120 - 130 degrees) and the butter is almost melted, stirring constantly.
  • 2. Add milk mixture to flour mixture; add eggs. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds; scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Using a big, strong spoon stir in as much of the remaining flour as possible. Dough will be soft. Turn dough out on to a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough (3 to 5 minutes total). Shape dough into a ball.
  • 3. Place ball of dough into a lightly greased bowl; turn once. COVER; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (this should take about 1 to 1 1/2 hours). The dough is ready for shaping when you can lightly and quickly press 2 fingers 1/2 inch into dough and indention remains.
  • 4. Punch dough down. On a lightly floured surface, divide dough in half; shape each half into a smooth ball. Cover and let rest 10 minutes.
  • 5. On light floured surface roll half the dough to 12x8 inches. Spread with 3 Tablespoons of butter. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle half over rectangle. Roll up from the short side. Seal edges. Make a second roll with remaining dough, butter and sugar mixture.
  • 6. Slice each roll into 8 pieces. It's easier if you begin slicing from the center of the roll, the slices will be more uniform. Arrange slices, cut side down, in a greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Cover, let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
  • 7. Bake rolls in a 350 degree pre heated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until light brown. Drizzle with Maple Nut Glaze.
  • 8. MAPLE NUT GLAZE: In a small bowl combine 1 cup sifted powdered sugar, 2 Tablespoons maple syrup. Stir in 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans.
  • 9. FOR FREEZING AND REHEATING: BAKE AND COOL ROLLS AS DIRECTED, DO NOT GLAZE. WRAP IN MOISTURE AND VAPOR PROOF WRAP. SEAL, LABEL, AND FREEZE UP TO 3 MONTHS. TO REHEAT IN A CONVENTIONAL OVEN, WRAP FROZEN ROLLS IN FOIL. PLACE INTO A 350 DEGREE OVEN FOR 20 TO 25 MINUTES. DRIZZLE WITH GLAZE.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough before rolling: This will help prevent the dough from becoming too sticky and difficult to work with.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the rolls: This will help ensure clean, even cuts.
  • Roll the rolls tightly: This will help prevent them from unrolling during baking.
  • Bake the rolls until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Serve the rolls warm or at room temperature: This will allow the flavors to fully develop.

Conclusion:

Nut rolls are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. They are also a great way to use up leftover nuts. With a little bit of planning and effort, you can easily make your own nut rolls at home. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give these nut rolls a try. You won't be disappointed!
