Bejgli { Hungarian walnut / poppy seeds roll }

The real thing doesn't look anything like what I took out from the oven haha!!
My pastry was flaky unlike the traditional Christmas treat. Whatever it is, I am happy with the taste! Also, surpsingly, I enjoyed the poppy seeds filling this time ; which normally is not my first choice .

see step by step instructions here

My poppy seed fillings , mix together:-

100g poppy seeds, grounded
50g honey
50g water, heat and add to honey before combing with other ingredients
a bunch of dried cranberries or raisins - soaked in water
some grated lemon peel

mixture should not be too watery and should just be easily spread on dough easily.
