Step 1

Combine your butter, milk, sour cream, egg, vanilla, sugar, and spices. Pop in the microwave for a minute to warm up the mixture so that the yeast activates.

Step 2

Add your flour, spices, instant yeast, and toasted milk powder if using (highly recommend). Knead using a stand mixer, or by hand, for 8-10min or until the dough is tacky to touch. Keep in mind that this is an enriched wet dough so only add flour if it’s really sticky, otherwise oil your hands to work it. Let the dough rest in a warm place until doubled in size (1-2 hours).

Step 3

In the meantime, make your simple syrup and filling. For the simple syrup, combine water, sugar, and orange zest. Let it come to a boil over medium heat, and then reduce and let it simmer for 10min. For the filling, combine crushed pistachios, brown sugar, and cardamom. Set both aside for later.

Step 4

Once the dough has proofed, roll it out in a rectangular shape. Spread melted or softened butter on top but leave the end strip without any butter so it can stick when rolling. Sprinkle your filling mixture evenly.

Step 5

Roll the dough from the short side, and use a knife to mark where you will cut depending on how many rolls you want. Use unflavored dental floss to cut perfect-looking rolls. Place the rolls in the pan (don’t crowd them) to proof for another 30 minutes.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 350f in the meantime. Bake the rolls for about 28-30min or until the top has browned nicely. Allow to cool before glazing the top with the cooled orange simple syrup and top with more pistachios/orange zest. Enjoy!
