👨‍🍳 Fremgangsmåte

1. 1

   In a small bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and 1 tbsp of the sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Ensure the milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast.
2. 2

   In a large bowl, combine flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture, egg yolks, and softened butter. Mix until a soft dough forms.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: You can use a stand mixer with a dough hook for easier kneading.
3. 3

   Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
4. 4

   While the dough is rising, prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix ground walnuts, honey, and cinnamon.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Adjust the amount of honey to your sweetness preference.
5. 5

   Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (about 1/4 inch thick). Spread the walnut-honey filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Ensure the filling is spread evenly for consistent flavor in each roll.
6. 6

   Starting from the long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Use a sharp knife or dental floss for clean cuts.
7. 7

   Place the rolls cut-side up in a greased baking pan. Cover and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Allowing a second rise ensures the rolls are light and fluffy.
8. 8

   Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the tops of the rolls with egg wash and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: Egg wash gives the rolls a beautiful shine.
9. 9

   Let the rolls cool slightly, then dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.

   💡 Profesjonelle tips: These are best served warm.
