Lunch: Nut Swirl Bread Recipe

Ingredients

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110 ° to 115 °)
2 cups warm milk (110 ° to 115 °)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
2 teaspoons salt
7 to 7-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add milk, sugar, butter, eggs, salt and 3-1/2 cups of flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
For filling, beat egg whites in a bowl until foamy; gradually add sugar and beat well. Stir in nuts and butter; mix well.
Punch dough down; divided into eight balls. Roll each into an 8-in. circle; brush with melted butter. Spread about 2/3 cup filling on each circle. Roll up tightly into loaves; seal ends. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 50 minutes.
Brush with egg. Bake at 350 ° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks.
