Ingrediënten
Ensure the milk is lukewarm (around 37 °C) before adding the yeast. If it’s too hot, it may kill the yeast; if it’s too cold, the rising may take longer.
Kneading for 10-12 minutes is essential to create an elastic dough that rises well.
Rising time may vary depending on your kitchen temperature. If the dough hasn’t doubled after an hour, give it more time or place it in a slightly warm oven to speed up the process.
Use room-temperature cream cheese to spread it evenly over the dough.
After cutting and placing on the baking sheet, let the swirls rise again for a light and airy texture.
Apply the honey while the swirls are warm, allowing it to absorb well and create a nice glossy layer. Add the pistachios or walnuts immediately to help them stick.
Substitute vanilla sugar with vanilla extract if desired.
Use your favorite cream cheese wedges.

Stappenplan
1 Melt the butter over low heat in a saucepan and let it cool. |
2 In a large bowl, add the lukewarm milk, granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, and yeast. Stir well with a whisk. |
3 Add the sunflower oil, beaten egg, and melted butter. Mix well. Then add the flour and salt. Mix and knead the dough for 10-12 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until it has doubled in size. |
4 Place the cream cheese wedges in a bowl and mix them until smooth. |
5 Divide the dough into two equal parts of about 350 grams each. |
6 Dust your work surface with flour and roll one part of the dough into a rectangle. Spread half of the cream cheese over the dough. Repeat with the other half. |
7 Roll the dough tightly. |
8 Cut into equal-sized pieces. |
9 Place the dough rolls (swirls) on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let them rise for 30 minutes or until they have doubled in size. |
10 Preheat the oven to 200 °C (390 °F). Bake the swirls for 12-18 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Check the baking time, as each oven is different. |
11 Brush the warm swirls with honey and garnish with chopped pistachios or walnuts. |
