Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a small saucepan, heat the milk until warm. Remove from heat and sprinkle the yeast over the milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
-
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks. Add the yeast mixture and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
-
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the dough into a rectangle.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, nutmeg, chopped walnuts, and powdered sugar. Spread the mixture evenly over the dough.
-
Starting from one of the long sides, tightly roll up the dough. Place the roll on a greased baking sheet and shape it into a crescent or circle.
-
Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled nut roll.
-
Slice and serve.
