Ingredients

  • 500 gram flour
  • 200 ml milk full fat
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons yeast 14 grams
  • 2 eggs

For topping:

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • ¼ cup sprinkles

Instructions

  • Add yeast, milk, and sugar to a bowl and stir.
  • Let proof until a thick foam sets, about 5-8 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add flour and salt in a bowl, mix.
  • Make a well in the middle.
  • Add oil, eggs, and yeast mix to bowl.
  • Mix in stand mixer with paddle on medium until a smooth ball forms, about 5 minutes. Dough should not be sticky or dry, similar to a pizza dough.
  • If dough is too sticky, add flour, one tablespoon at a time. If too dry, add one teaspoon of water at a time.
  • Return to bowl and let rise until doubled in size, about one hour.
  • Punch down dough and lightly knead.
  • Separate into 6 portions.
  • Roll each of the 6 balls of dough out to a thin circle.
  • Take a pizza roller to cut winding corkscrew shape out of the dough.
  • Wrap dough around a paper towel rod, covered in foil, and well greased.
  • Place rod and dough on a deep baking dish - dough should have room to puff up about 1/4" in all directions.
  • Bake 8-15 minutes, until lightly browned.
  • In a small pan, melt butter and honey, adding in sugar, stirring often to help mix and prevent burning.
  • Brush honey butter mixture on dough.
  • Cover dough in sprinkles.
  • Let set about 3 minutes.
  • Serve immediately!
