Ingredients

Dough
  • 350 g all-purpose flour (2 3/4 cups)
  • 50 g sugar (1/4 cup)
  • 4 g salt (1/4 tsp)
  • 7 g instant yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
  • 1 large egg
  • 160 g milk (2/3 cup)
  • 50 g butter room temperature (1/4 cup)
Pistachio filling
  • 150 g ground pistachios (1 cup)
  • 50 g powdered sugar (1/2 cup)
  • 70 g melted butter (1/3 cup)
Glaze
  • 100 g powdered sugar (1 cup)
  • 5 g rose water (1 tsp)
  • 25 g heavy cream (2 tbsp)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a stand mixer bowl, add the dry ingredients of flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Then add the wet ingredients of egg, milk, and softened butter. Using a dough hook, knead on Low speed until the ingredients come together and flour is fully incorporated. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and rest for 30 minutes, leave it on the stand mixer.
  2. Next, turn the mixer on again and knead on High speed for 8-10 minutes. Dough should be shiny and elastic. Cover again and let rise for 1 hour, in a draft-free, warm area.
  3. In a bowl mix together the Filling ingredients until smooth. Set aide.
  4. On a clean surface dusted with flour, roll the dough into a 10x16" rectangular shape and spread the pistachio filling on top almost to edges. Roll it up from the longer side and slice 8 rolls (See Note 1).
  5. Arrange the roll slices in a greased 9x9" baking pan or round 9-inch cake pan lined with parchment paper (in case any of the filling leaks out) or a large oven-safe skillet. Cover with tea towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes, should be doubled in size.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven, let cool for 30 minutes before glazing.
  8. Mix the Glaze ingredients together and spread or drizzle over the rolls (add more cream if you prefer it thinner). Sprinkle with crushed pistachios and dried rose petals (optional).

Notes

  • I use dental floss to cut dough rolls by sliding the floss under the dough, crossing the ends over the top, and pulling tightly to create clean, smooth slices.
