Steps

1

Mix all ingredients for 5 minutes in a standing mixer. Or mix using a spoon/hand until a soft non sticky dough is formed. Knead on a floured surface.
2

Mix the filling ingredients in a medium bowl and keep aside.
3

Roll dough into a disk & divide into 8.
4

Roll each one into a rectangle. Spread filling (Nutella, melted chocolate can be used instead of homemade filling)
5

Roll from the longer side as shown below
6

Using a kitchen scissors or a sharp knife, make an incision along the length of the rolled dough
7

Twist the dough, then make it into a round shape and tuck the ends under
8

Allow to rise. Break an egg, use a kitchen brush and brush it lightly over the dough (eggwash)
9

Bake for about 15 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. (Cover with foil paper to avoid burning of top when you see that the bottom isn't done yet)
10

Let them sit for about 20-30 minutes after taking them out of the oven before removing from baking sheets to prevent breaking.
