Christmas Cinnamon Rolls by Nutella

INGREDIENTS FOR 12 SERVINGS

  • 21g yeast

  • 185 ml milk

  • 3 eggs

  • 300 g flour

  • 1 tbsp. sugar

  • 2 tbsp. brown sugar

  • a pinch of salt

  • 70 g butter

  • 1/2 tbsp. of cinnamon

  • 1 tbsp. of Nutella® per cinnamon roll

How to make Christmas Cinnamon Rolls

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, add the flour and create a well in the center. Pour the milk into the well, then add the sugar and yeast. Mix with a fork and let it sit for 10 minutes. Add the 2 eggs and combine with a mixer then knead by hand until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Let the dough rest for 2 hours, then refrigerate for 1 hour. Once the dough has finished proving, mix the remaining sugar, butter, and cinnamon in a separate, microwave-safe bowl, and then melt in the microwave. Roll out the dough and evenly spread the cinnamon mixture over it, to the edges.

  3. Step 3

    Roll up the dough and slice it into smaller rolls. Kitchen twine works great for this! Arrange them into a Christmas tree shape on a baking tray. Cover them with a towel and allow them to rest for 2 hours. Beat the remaining egg and brush it over the rolls.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Beat the remaining egg and brush it over the rolls. Place the rolls in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, until they turn golden brown. Allow them to cool down before adding a topping of Nutella® . Enjoy!
