Sunflower oil

Directions: 

Make the bread dough according to the directions on the product and let it proof covered with aluminum foil on a warm spot for 20 min. In the meanwhile, chop half of the nuts into small pieces and the other half into bigger pieces.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangular shape. Spread 2/3 of the pesto on the dough using a spoon or baking brush. Sprinkle 2/3 of the chopped nuts over the dough. Roll the wider side of the dough into a swirl. Afterwards, cut the dough into 3 cm’s wide pieces. Dip these breads in the remaining pesto and chopped nuts. Put the breads next to each other on a baking tray and let them proof for another 30 min.

Warm up the oven to 200 °C. Bake the little breads for 20-30 min. Keep an eye on the breads and take them out when they are light brown and done.
