Description

Delicious cinnamon rolls filled with a delightful pistachio cream, perfect for cozy mornings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup pistachio cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened (for spreading)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
  2. Warm the milk slightly and mix with melted butter. Gradually add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Let the dough rest for about 30 minutes, covered with a clean towel.
  5. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Spread softened butter on the dough and then spread the pistachio cream evenly. Sprinkle cinnamon over the cream.
  7. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into rounds.
  8. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for about 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
  10. Once baked, dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.

Notes

Make sure to not use hot milk when mixing with yeast. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
