Grandma's Povitica (Croatian Nut Roll)

Ingredients You’ll Need:

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 2 cups milk, warmed to lukewarm
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder (optional)
  • ½ cup additional sugar for filling

Instructions:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it’s frothy.
  2. Add the melted butter, sugar, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
  3. Stir in the eggs, and then gradually add the flour until the dough forms. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour or until it doubles in size.
  5. While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a separate bowl, mix the chopped walnuts, sugar, cocoa powder (if using), and vanilla extract. Set aside.
  6. After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the walnut filling evenly over the dough.
  7. Carefully roll the dough into a log, pinch the edges to seal, and place it seam-side down in a greased loaf pan.
  8. Cover the pan and let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the povitica for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
