Ingredients:

1/2 cup walnuts
120g
1/3 cup brown sugar
72g
1 tsp spice mix
5g
2 cups self-raising flour
300g
2 tbsp sugar
30g
1/3 cup light sour cream
72g
1 tbsp butter
16g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Nut Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, brown sugar, and spice mix. Stir until the nuts are well coated with the sugar and spices. Set aside.
3. Make the Dough:
- In a larger mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and sugar.
- Add the light sour cream and melted butter to the flour mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little more sour cream.
4. Roll Out the Dough:
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle, approximately 25 x 35 cm (10 x 14 inches).
5. Add the Filling:
- Evenly spread the walnut mixture over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Roll and Shape the Dough:
- Starting from one of the longer sides, carefully roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam and ends to seal.
7. Slice and Arrange in Tin:
- Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 8-10 evenly sized scrolls.
- Arrange the scrolls in the prepared loaf tin, cut side up. Ensure they are snug but not too tightly packed as they will expand during baking.
8. Bake the Loaf:
- Place the loaf tin in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool and Serve:
- Remove the loaf tin from the oven and allow the scroll loaf to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the scroll loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Enjoy:
- Slice and serve the caramel and walnut scroll loaf with your favorite hot beverage.

Tips:

- Toast the walnuts lightly before adding them to enhance their flavor and crunch.

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.

- For a more decadent touch, drizzle some caramel sauce over the loaf before serving.

- Use a sharp knife to cut even scroll slices for a uniform bake.

- Adding a pinch of salt to the caramel mixture can help balance the sweetness.

- Make sure to let the loaf cool slightly before slicing to maintain its shape.

This Caramel and Walnut Scroll Loaf is an irresistible pastry that combines the rich sweetness of caramel with the satisfying texture of walnuts. It's an easy recipe that delivers a big impact in flavor and satisfaction. Serve it warm or at room temperature, and enjoy every bite of this delectable treat!
