So, how to make Christmas Star Twisted Bread?

Steps to make Christmas Star Twisted Bread

1

Prepare yeast

2

Dissolve yeast in warm water until foamy and bubbling.

2

Combine wet ingredients

2

In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, butter, sugar and salt together to combine.

3

Add yeast and flour

5

Add yeast and 3 cups flour and beat on medium speed for 1 minute, until smooth. Add remaining flour and stir through until just combined to a soft dough.

4

Knead

5

Roll out onto a floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes until smooth and elastic.

5

Rise

1h

Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm place for about an hour to rise and double in volume.

6

Portion

5

Once risen, punch down to release air. Roll out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 portions. Roll 1 of the portions out, into a 12-inch circle and place on a parchment paper.

7

Add jam

5

Spread with ⅓ jam over the entire dough, ½-inch from the edge. Repeat with remaining dough portions and jam, layering them on top of each other, ending with final portion of dough on top.

8

Prepare shape

10

Place a 2½-inch round cutter or bowl on top of the dough, in the center (do not press down). With a sharp knife, slice 16 evenly spaced cuts from round cutter to the edge of dough, forming a star-like shape. Remove cutter from the center and take 2 adjacent strips, rotating twice outward and pinch ends together. Repeat with remaining strips.

9

Second rise

30

Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for about 30 minutes until almost doubled in volume.

10

Preheat oven

Preheat oven to 375 °F.

11

Bake

25

Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven.

12

Brush with butter

1

Brush with melted butter, avoiding any areas where jam has dripped through.

13

Serve

30

Cool completely on a wire rack before dusting with confectioners’ sugar and serving.
