Instructions:

1
Preparation of the yeast dough:- In a bowl, mix the flour with the dry yeast (if using fresh yeast, dissolve it first in a little warm milk with a pinch of sugar).- Add the sugar, vanilla sugar and a pinch of salt.- Heat the milk until lukewarm and pour it into the flour mixture. Add the melted butter and the egg.- Knead into a smooth and elastic dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour if necessary. Cover with a clean kitchen cloth and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in volume.
2
Shaping the birds:- Once the dough has risen, knead it on a lightly floured surface and divide it into equal parts (about 50-70 g per bird).- Roll each part of the dough into an oval shape. Add a spoonful of BAM Pistachio Spread to the centre of each oval.- Fold the dough over to cover the filling and pinch the edges to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.- To shape the bird, squeeze one end (the head) a little to form a beak and make two notches for the tail at the other end with a knife.- Use a toothpick or knife to gently make the eye holes.
3
Baking:- Transfer the birds to a baking tray lined with baking paper. Leave to rise in a warm place for about 15-20 minutes.- Preheat the oven to 180°C.- Before baking, brush the birds with beaten egg for a nice golden shine.- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
4
Decoration:- Once the birds are baked and cooled, sprinkle them with icing sugar, if desired.
