Filipe Martins' sticky, caramelized dough rolls are a must-bake treat.
Ingredients:
  • 30 g unsalted butter
  • 1 large free-range egg
  • 1 orange
  • 330 g self-raising flour
  • 60 g brown sugar
  • 5 g fine sea salt
  • 75 ml milk
  • 50 g brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground fennel seeds
  • 1 tablespoon runny honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
Instructions:
  • To make the dough, start by melting the butter and beating the egg. Juice the orange and mix all the dough ingredients (excluding milk) in a bowl. Gradually add up to 75ml of milk until you get a smooth and relatively stiff dough. Let it rest for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 185ºC/gas 4½. Roll out the dough into a long, thin rectangle about ½cm thick, 50 to 60cm long, and 10cm wide. For the filling, combine sugar and spices, then sprinkle over the dough. Melt and drizzle the butter on top. Roll up the dough from one short end to the other, then divide into 4 slices. Place them on a parchment-lined tray. In a small pan over medium heat, combine the glaze ingredients and bring to a boil. Spoon some glaze over the dough and bake for about 40 minutes, basting with more glaze a couple of times, until golden, risen, and sticky. The folar may spread slightly, but it will be delicious.
