Instructions

Dough
  • Place milk and yeast in mixing bowl then warm 2 min/37°C/speed 1. Meanwhile, grease a large bowl.
  • Add butter, sugar, flour, cardamom and salt then mix 15 sec/speed 4. Knead Dough /4 min. Transfer to prepared bowl, bring together into a ball, cover with cling film and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size (approx. 1-2 hours). Meanwhile, clean mixing bowl and make filling.
Filling
  • Place butter, sugar, cinnamon and cardamom in mixing bowl then blend 10 sec/speed 4. Scrape down sides of mixing bowl with spatula then blend again 10 sec/speed 4. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Assembly
  • Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
  • Once dough has doubled in size, tip out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into a rectangle (50 cm x 26 cm) then spread filling on top.
  • Fold bottom third of dough up to cover middle third and top third down over this. Give dough a quarter turn so that the fold is on the left and roll out again into the same size rectangle (50 cm x 26 cm).
  • Cut in half to produce 2 rectangles (approx. 25 cm x 26 cm) then trim 1 cm off top and bottom to neaten (25 cm x 24 cm). Cut each piece in half lengthways to produce 4 rectangles (25 cm x 12 cm). Cut each rectangle lengthways into 4 strips (3 cm wide).
  • Twist each dough strip then form into a knot, tucking both ends together underneath. Arrange on prepared baking trays, at least 4 cm apart and cover loosely with greased cling film. Leave to rise in a warm place for 45 minutes.
  • Towards the end of proving time, preheat oven to 220°C.
Glaze
  • Place egg and milk in a small bowl then beat to combine. Brush risen buns with egg wash then sprinkle with pearl sugar. Bake for 8-10 minutes (220°C) until cooked and golden. Transfer to wire racks and allow to cool.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
