Step by Step guide

Step 1

For the filling, chop the nuts. Set aside one tablespoon for decoration, and mix the rest with brown sugar and cinnamon.

Step 2

For the dough, grate the butter and freeze it. In a bowl, mix the sifted flour with baking powder and salt, add the frozen butter, and rub it into crumbs. Gradually pour in the cold milk and knead the dough.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 392°F. Grease a loaf pan measuring 18x9x7 cm with butter. Roll out the dough into a rectangle measuring 18x28 cm. Brush with lightly beaten egg. Spread the filling in a thin, even layer over the entire surface and, starting from the shorter side, roll it up into a log. Place it in the prepared loaf pan and bake in the oven for 35–40 minutes (check for doneness with a toothpick). Allow the roll to cool slightly for 5 minutes, then remove it from the pan.

Step 4

For the honey syrup, combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and heat over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and cook for another 5 minutes.
