These are just mini versions of babka but they’re soooooo good and using Nutella or any other hazlenut spread makes this a breeze. I added a brown sugar cinnamon topping just to bring them over the top (and make them look a little fancier).
Hazelnut Babka Rolls
AuthorMabDifficultyIntermediateMake the dough by mixing together the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt into a large bowl then making a well and pouring in the milk, butter, and egg. Mixing together and kneed until it forms smooth and elastic dough, about 10 minutes.
Transfer the dough into oiled bowl, cover with cling film and allow it to rise for about an hour or until it has doubled in size.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle that is about 40 x 60 cm.
Spread the filling over half of the dough then fold the dough over the filling and gently press together.
Using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife, cut the dough into strips, about 2.5- 3 cm thick then twist each strip of dough then finishing by folding the end of the dough over and under until a twisted bun forms.
Place the buns on a lined baking sheet and allow to rise for 45 minutes.
Bake buns at 190°C for 18-20 minutes until they brown on top.
