The Hirshon Hungarian Poppy Seed And Walnut Beigli 🇭🇺..

Oh, Ashley — now that’s a showstopper! 😍🇭🇺
Hungarian Beigli (bejgli) is a traditional Christmas and Easter pastry roll — rich, buttery yeast dough filled with either sweet walnut (diós) or poppy seed (mákos) filling.

It’s aromatic, soft inside, and beautifully glossy outside, with those classic crackled lines on top. Let’s make the Hirshon-style Hungarian Poppy Seed and Walnut Beigli, step by step! 🥮✨


🇭🇺 Hungarian Poppy Seed & Walnut Beigli

(Mákos és Diós Beigli)

🧺 Ingredients

🥖 For the dough:

  • 3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (170 g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ½ cup (120 ml) sour cream
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ⅓ cup (70 g) sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 packet (7 g) instant yeast
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

(Traditional Beigli dough is short and buttery — more pastry-like than bread-like!)
