Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup chopped pistachios
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Warm the milk and melted butter, then pour them into the dry ingredients along with the egg. Mix until a cohesive dough forms.
- Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour.
- Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough into a rectangle. Spread melted butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon, brown sugar, pistachios, and white chocolate.
- Roll and Slice: Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-2 inch pieces. Place them in a greased baking dish and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Bake the Rolls: Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Make the Glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar and milk, then drizzle over the warm rolls before serving.
Notes
Make-ahead tips: Refrigerate the dough overnight after the first rise. Use an air fryer for quicker cooking.
