Hello everyone! I hope everyone has been staying warm this winter! This recipe is for these delicious apple twists that I made. I was flipping through my Taste of Home cookbook, trying to find a good recipe, and when I came across these, I had to make them. I brought them to youth group for a snack, and there were no leftovers! The dough does have to be refrigerated overnight, but other than that, the recipe is not extremely complicated. I hope you guys enjoy it! Happy Eating! :)
Austrian Apple Twists
Dough:
1 Tablespoon active dry yeast
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, softened
3 egg yolks
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup melted butter
Filling:
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
2 medium apples
1 tsp. cinnamon
Icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
5-6 tsp. milk
1/4 tsp. vanilla
Preheat oven to 350*.
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the yeast and the flour. Add the butter and mix thoroughly. Add the egg yolks, buttermilk, and melted butter. Shape into four balls and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball into a circle. Cut each circle into about 14 wedges. Combine the sugar, pecans, apples, and cinnamon and sprinkle onto each slice. Roll up from the wide end and place point side down on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 17 minutes, or until browned lightly. Remove from the cookie sheet immediately and place on wire racks to cool. Meanwhile, make the icing.
In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Stir until well combined and smooth.
Drizzle the icing over the cooled twists and enjoy! :)
