💚 Pistachio Bread (Makes 😎
Make the Dough– Mix everything except the butter until a rough dough forms.
– Add butter and knead until smooth and elastic.
– Divide into 8 pieces (about 60g each).
– Cover and chill for 15 minutes.
Shape the Dough– Roll each piece flat, fold the sides toward the center, and press the edges to seal.
– Shape into a teardrop and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
– Roll it out into a long triangle shape.
– Flip it over, put a small piece of salted butter at the top edge (the wider end), brush sides with oil or butter, and roll it up from top to bottom, like a croissant.
Let It Rise & Make the Filling– Place the rolls on a baking sheet and let them rise at 32°C for 30 to 60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
– While rising, mix pistachio paste and milk.
– Add butter, sugar, and egg. Mix well.
– Stir in flour until smooth.
– Pipe or spoon filling on top of each roll. Garnish with chopped pistachios if you like.
– Preheat oven to 190°C.
Bake– Bake at 185°C for 16 minutes.
– After 6 minutes, cover loosely with foil to prevent over-browning.
