Directions

Prepare the Dough

  1. Knead together flour, yeast, sugar, salt, oil, eggs, and water until the dough separates from the sides of the bowl. Cover dough and let rise.

Shape and Bake

  1. Divide dough into five or six sections. Roll out each section into a rectangle. Spread with your choice of filling (see below) and roll up, jelly-roll style. Place each roll on a baking sheet lined with Gefen Parchment Paper. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).

  2. Bake for 30 minutes. Do not overbake or your pastry will dry out.

  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

*Sprinkle with ground nuts and a drizzle of honey or date honey.
