This is how you make soft and fluffy cinnamon walnut rolls.
1. Prepare the dough
-
In a large bowl, mix the warm milk, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let it stand for 5-8 minutes until frothy.

Add the melted butter, eggs, sugar, and salt. Mix until homogeneous.
-
Gradually add the flour and stir until a soft, rough dough forms.
-
Knead the dough for 7-10 minutes by hand or with a mixer until it is smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in volume.
2. Make the filling
-
Mix the brown sugar with the cinnamon in a small bowl.
-
Toast the walnuts in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes and then chop them finely.
-
Make sure everything is ready for assembly.
