1

Warm 130 ml of milk and add 80 g of sugar, then add 8 g of dry yeast and leave to activate for 15 minutes.

2

In a bowl, mix 2 eggs with the activated yeast mixture and 40 g of melted butter.

3

Add 400 g of all-purpose flour gradually, kneading the dough for about 10 minutes until soft and slightly sticky.

4

Grease your hands with vegetable oil while kneading and add 20-30 g of flour as needed to keep the dough soft.

5

Grease the bowl and the dough with vegetable oil and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

6

After rising, release the gas from the dough, weigh it, and divide it into 10 equal parts, forming balls and covering them with a towel for 15 minutes.

7

Mash 250 g of thick apple jam with a fork.

8

Roll out each dough ball into an elongated oval shape without adding flour or oil to the surface.

9

Spread 1 teaspoon of apple jam on the left and right edges of the rolled-out dough, avoiding the top and bottom.

10

Roll the dough loosely, pressing the edges to seal, and place the roll seam side down.

11

Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 25-30 minutes.

12

Prepare streusel by mixing 10 g of sugar, a little vanilla sugar, 10 g of butter, and 20 g of flour until crumbly.

13

Grease the rolls with a mixture of 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of milk, then sprinkle with the streusel.

14

Bake at 180 °C (356 °F) for 20 minutes.
