- 1 tsp. yeast
- 2 c. warm water
- 2 tbsp. grade B maple syrup
- 2 tbsp. light oil
- 2 tsp. salt
- 5 - 6 c. unbleached white flour or bread flour
- 1/2 c. nonfat dry milk
- 2 tbsp. wheat germ
Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and maple syrup. Leave alone for
a few minutes. When frothy, add oil, salt and 2 c. flour; beat well.
Add dry milk and wheat germ, and mix in. Then, add
2 - 3 c. more flour, a little at a time. Knead about 10 minutes. Let
rise until double. Punch down; roll dough to about 1/4 - 1/2" thick.
Spread some soft butter on the dough and sprinkle with
1/2 c. maple sugar or maple sprinkles. Roll up like a jelly roll. Slice
into slices about 1" thick. In an 8 or 9" pan, melt about
1 tbsp. butter; add 3/4 c. medium or dark maple syrup and 1 c. chopped
nuts. Arrange slices in the pan; rise again, then bake at 375 degrees.
