Cinnamon nut scrolls are a delightful pastry that combines the warmth of cinnamon with the crunch of mixed nuts, making for a perfect treat for breakfast or dessert. With easy-to-find ingredients and simple preparation steps, you'll be able to whip up these tasty scrolls in no time.
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and sugar. Add the softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the milk, stirring until a soft dough forms.
In a separate bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, chopped almonds, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Evenly spread the nut and sugar mixture over the dough, pressing it gently to adhere.
Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the scrolls are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and immediately brush the warm scrolls with the maple syrup. Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Cinnamon Nut Scrolls warm or at room temperature with a cup of coffee or tea!
Tips:
- Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easy mixing.
- Chop the walnuts and almonds finely to ensure they are evenly distributed in the scrolls.
- Use a light hand while mixing the dough to keep it tender and flaky.
- Roll the dough tightly to prevent it from unrolling while baking.
- Brush the scrolls with an extra layer of maple syrup before baking for a glossy finish.
