Mohnstriezel (German Poppy Seed Roll) instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar and grated lemon peel. Add the warm water and 1/2 beaten egg and work into the flour until you form an elastic dough..
- Remove from bowl and knead for several minutes by hand on a floured surface until it no longer sticks to the surface..
- Cover and let rise for 1-2 hours until doubled in size..
- While the dough is rising, grind poppy seeds. In a small pot, heat milk and butter until it comes to a boil, then stop heat and stir in the poppy seeds and sugar. Add some semolina flour or zwieback crumbs to help thicken the paste..
- Stir in the almonds, raisin or currants, the other 1/2 of the egg and ground cinnamon into the paste..
- After the dough has risen, preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Roll out the dough into rectangular shape about 1 cm or so thick..
- Leaving some empty space along the edges, spread out the poppy seed paste in a thick layer across the dough..
- Roll the dough into a cylinder and place on the backing sheet, seam-side down. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until golden brown..
- Remove from oven and while still warm, brush with a good amount of melted butter, then dust with confectioner's sugar. Once cooled a bit, sprinkle a bit more confectioner's sugar for a nice dusted look :).
- Slice, serve and devour!.
