Instructions
- In a large bowl combine milk with yeast and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
- Add the yogurt, sugar, salt, egg and melted butter, and mix well.
- Gradually add the flour and mix until the dough forms. Transfer on a lightly floured surface and knead for 3-5 minutes or until smooth and not sticky.
- Place back into the bowl, cover with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place to rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size. To speed up the process, preheat your oven to 140°F |60°C, turn it off and keep in the oven for 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a thin rectangle, using a rolling pin. Spread the poppy seed filling in an even layer.
- Starting at the long edge, roll the dough into a long log. Flour your knife and cut into 12 pieces, about 2 inches thick.
- Place the rolls into a greased ( or lined with parchment paper) 9-inch x 13-inch baking dish. Cover with a damp towel and allow to rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 175°F |350°C with the rack in the center.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow to cool down for 10 minutes before glazing them.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze. In a medium bowl whisk all the ingredients for the glaze until lump free.
- Spread over the rolls. Enjoy!
