Covid-19 Lockdown - Star Bread

 

Covid-19 has been detected in the community in Auckland.  We are all in lockdown until the Ministry of Health can determine if it has spread through New Zealand.

First day of lockdown, and I made half and half star bread.

Divide the dough into four. Roll out into a decent sized round. Spread half with nutella and half with cinnamon sugar. Put the next dough round on top and repeat until 4 high. Use fingers to press down and seal the edges.

Using a glass, press the rim into the centre, to create a cutting guide.  Make 8 cuts through all the dough layers to the circle.

Cut the wedge in half (going a little into the circle. Split and twist.  Press the ends together.

Continue all around the circle until all the wedges are twisted.

Leave in a warm place until doubled in size (about an hour)

Bake at 180 C for about 15- 20 minutes.

Drizzle with lemon glaze, and enjoy while warm.
