Cute Ring Shaped Bread with Chocolate and Walnuts in a Bread Maker
- 1 *this is a buttery, tender dough I used the snack-bread dough from
- 1 few drops Vanilla oil (if you have some, optional)
- 1 Egg for glazing, granulated sugar, walnuts, chocolate chips, etc.
- Add a few drops of vanilla oil to the snack-bread dough recipe from, and make the dough in a bread machine.
- When the dough is finished, divide it into 6 portions and round off each one.
- Rest the dough for 15 minutes.
- Cover with a tightly wrung out moistened kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.
- *Chop up the chocolate and walnuts in the meantime.
- Roll each piece of dough out into about a 15 x 12 cm square.
- Cut in half using a pastry scraper, and cut off about 5 mm from each side.
- Make 8 cuts as shown.
- (You can make more or fewer cuts as you like.)
- Add the filling.
- I used white chocolate, chocolate chips and walnuts this time.
- Don't add too much or the dough will be difficult to roll.
- Roll it up from the bottom.
- Roll it up...and then form into a U shape.
- Flip it over and connect the ends as indicated in red.
- Cover the joined ends with a piece of the dough, looking down on it from the top.
- Pinch the dough closed (upper photos).
- The bottom photo shows how it looks when it's formed.
- Leave to rise at 35 to 40C until doubled in volume.
- Preheat your oven to 190C.
- Brush the the egg glaze, and sprinkle with a generous amount of granulated sugar.
- Lower the oven temperature from 190C to 170~180C, and bake for about 13 minutes until the rolls are as browned as you want them to be.
- I rolled up the cut off dough from Step 3 and baked it too.
- Attention: If you brush the dough with egg glaze it's liable to burn easily, so watch it with care.
- This is a dough for snack breads, so it has no sugar in it.
- You can fill it with tuna and mashed potato and form it as above too.
- To make the filling, mix canned tuna + potato + mayonnaise + salt and pepper + curry powder etc.
- Attention: Thesnack-bread dough is buttery and rather rich.
- Measure the ingredients out properly so that it doesn't get too wet...
- ...it has about 20 to 25 g of butter in the dough, but you can reduce it to 15 g. Whatever you prefer.
