I bake a new bread each year for my birthday and this year's was pistachio babka buns!! I used the recipe linked below as my base recipe, subbing Bettergoods pistachio butter for Nutella and pistachios for hazelnuts.

Not sure if my filling ratio is the same as his but I used the whole jar of pistachio butter! I also added a final step of brushing these with sugar syrup I made with almond extract added for some extra shine and sweetness. These were so yummy!

First time doing any kind of shaped bun like this I think they turned out pretty cute if a bit imperfect!

    When did you brush the sugar syrup? Before or after baking? They look amazing!
