Bread Machine Sweet And Soft Russian Walnut Roll Pastry Orechovnik Recipes

WALNUT ROLL PASTRY

Steps:

• Dough Mixing and First Rise
• Scald the milk in a pan on the stove or in a glass bowl in the microwave, bringing it up to 180°F.
• Cut the butter in pieces and add it to the milk to melt the butter and cool the milk. Then add the sugar, half-egg, and salt.
• In a large bowl or stand mixer, whisk together the ground nutmeg, instant yeast, and flour (start with the smaller amount). You can add the reserved flour if needed, but only if your dough is very damp and sticky.
• Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until the dough comes together and is smooth.
• Cover the bowl and let the dough rise somewhere warm, in a lit oven or on a raisenne dough riser for 1½-2 hours. The dough should double in size.
• FIlling Prep
• While the dough is rising, grind the walnuts and sugar in a food processor. Add the cinnamon afterward, so it doesn't poof through the seams of your food processor. Do not add the butter. If you don't have a food processor, you can put in the nuts in a ziploc bag and smash them with a rolling pin.
• Melt the butter in a glass bowl on low power in the microwave.
• Pastry Shaping
• Prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• When the dough has doubled, scrape it out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll it into a square that's roughly 12" x 12" and 1/4" thick. Before topping the dough, make sure you can slide it around the countertop. Flour and flip the dough if you can't.
• Brush on the melted butter, leaving a 1/2" strip at the top side free of butter to later seal the roll. If it seems like you have too much butter, hold some back and drizzle it on after you've added the absorbent nuts-sugar-cinnamon.
• Spread all the nut mixture on the butter as evenly as possible.
• Roll the dough toward the bare strip and rest it briefly on the seam.
• Lift the roll of dough, gently stretch it a bit lengthwise, and place it on the baking sheet, seam down.
• Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour.
• Baking
• Preheat your oven to 350°F for about 15 minutes.
• Just before putting the pastry in the oven, brush the dough with the reserved beaten egg.
• Bake for 45 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet if needed for even browning.
• Let the walnut roll cool on a rack at least 20 minutes before serving.

BREAD MACHINE SWEET DOUGH/ROLLS

Steps:

• Place the water, milk, egg, butter, sugar, salt, flour and yeast into the bread machine pan in order stated (starting with water and ending with the yeast).
• Select dough cycle, then press start.
• Since all bread machines are different the water or flour amounts will need to be adjusted slightly to your bread machine to create a soft smooth semi-sticky dough, so make certain to check after about 5 minutes of kneading time and adjust water or flour amounts.
• When the dough cycle has finished (including the rising time) remove and place dough on a lightly floured work surface.
• Divide into sections; let the sections rest for 5 minutes (important, the dough MUST rest for 5 minutes) then shape as desired.
• Place the shaped dough onto a greased baking sheet; cover with a light clean towel.
• Let rise in a warm place for about 1-1/2 hours or until doubled in size (due to the addition of an egg rising time will be longer).
• Bake in a 375°F oven for about 20-25 minutes or until until browned.

BREAD MACHINE SWEET ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. Place ingredients for dough in machine in order given, covering liquid ingredients with flour and adding yeast last. Upon completion of dough cycle, remove dough, divide into 12-18 equal pieces (depending on how large you want your rolls). For the best way to shape your rolls watch the video.
• 2. Place on lightly greased baking sheet, cover and let rise until doubled. I have baked these on two different kinds of baking pans. A 8 inch round and a 9x13 sheet. The 8 inch round makes them more of a "Pull A Part roll" and you have to bake a bit longer. The 9x13 bakes them all the way around and they come out very nice. I prefer the 9 x 13.
• 3. Beat together egg and milk and brush rolls with wash just before baking.
• 4. Bake in preheated, 350-degree oven for 15 - 20 minutes or until golden brown.
