Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup shelled unsalted pistachios, chopped
- 1/2 cup sliced or chopped almonds
- 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast (1 packet)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup whole milk

- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Warm the milk until lukewarm and mix in sugar and yeast; mix until combined.
- Knead dough on a floured surface for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let rise in a greased bowl covered with a towel for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Gently punch down the dough and fold in pistachios, almonds, and vanilla extract.
- Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread butter over it, sprinkle with sugar if desired, then roll tightly to form a log and twist into a wreath shape.
