Ingredients You’ll Need
To make these tasty Pumpkin and Apple Lavash Rolls, gather the following ingredients:
- 500 g (about 1.1 lbs) pumpkin, peeled and grated
- 1 apple, peeled, cored, and grated
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- 3 lavash breads
- 5 tbsp sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
- 20 g (about 1.4 tbsp) butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla sugar
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1.5 tbsp sesame seeds
How to Make Pumpkin and Apple Lavash Rolls
Creating these delicious rolls is simple! Just follow these easy steps:
-
Prepare the Filling: Start by peeling and coring the pumpkin. Grate it using a coarse grater. Next, do the same for the apple – make sure to remove the seeds and peel it. Once both are grated, mix them together in a large bowl. You can add 1 tsp of vanilla sugar to enhance the sweet flavor.
-
Fill the Lavash: Lay out one piece of lavash bread. Spread a generous amount of the pumpkin and apple mixture on the bread, leaving about an inch at one edge clear of filling. If you prefer a sweeter taste, sprinkle some sugar over the filling.
-
Roll It Up: Start rolling the lavash from the filled end, being careful to keep the filling inside. Roll tightly but not too tight to avoid squeezing out the filling.
-
Prepare the Topping: In a small bowl, melt the butter and mix in the sour cream (or Greek yogurt), 1 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp vanilla sugar. Stir until smooth.
-
Bake the Rolls: Place the rolled lavash seam-side down on a baking sheet. Brush each roll with the butter and sour cream mixture. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 35 minutes, or until golden and slightly crispy.
How to Serve Pumpkin and Apple Lavash Rolls
Once baked to a delicious golden brown, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly. You can slice them into smaller pieces for a lovely presentation or serve them whole for a heartier treat. These rolls are delicious on their own but pair beautifully with a dollop of extra sour cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar on top. For a complete meal, consider serving them alongside a warm spiced tea or a cozy cup of coffee.
Recipe Tips & Variations
- Add Some Spice: If you want to spice things up, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the pumpkin and apple mixture. This will give the rolls a warm, inviting flavor.
- Different Fruits: Feel free to use different fruits like pears or even add dried fruits like raisins or cranberries for an extra texture.
- Storage: These rolls can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of days. They taste great reheated or even chilled!
