Delicious golden puff pastry buns filled with a rich, aromatic walnut filling. Made with ready-rolled puff pastry, ground walnuts, cinnamon and Gellwe Vanilla Sugar, these sweet pastries are wonderfully crisp on the outside and soft and nutty on the inside. Quick and easy to prepare, they're perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea or a sweet homemade treat.

Preparation instructions:

  • 1.

    Prepare the filling. Bring the milk and sugar to the boil. Pour the hot milk over the ground walnuts mixed with cinnamon. Stir thoroughly, then set the filling aside to cool.

  • 2.

    Cut the puff pastry into 10 rectangles. Spoon some walnut filling into the centre of each rectangle and spread it evenly. Make cuts along the sides of each rectangle.

  • 3.

    Starting from the top, fold the strips of pastry alternately over the filling to create a braided pattern. Tuck the end of the pastry underneath. Brush the prepared buns with egg white, then sprinkle with Gellwe Vanilla Sugar and chopped walnuts.

  • 4.

    Bake at 180°C for approximately 20 minutes. Leave the buns to cool on a wire rack.
