This delicious poppyseed filling swirled bread ring, prepared with a tangzhong starter via gelatinization of starch in flour, kneaded in a bread machine, makes a great accompaniment to an afternoon tea break or a holiday brunch.

- Place the dough ingredients in the bread pan in the order given above. Select the “Dough” cycle, and press “Start”.
- Cream butter and brown sugar together until well combined. Gradually beat in eggs until blended. Stir in ground poppy and milk until well mixed.
- When the “Dough” cycle is finished, transfer the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it briefly. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a 1cm thick rectangle. Evenly spread on the poppy filling. Roll dough up, starting lengthwise to form a Swiss roll. Seal edges well by pinching close and and join the two ends to form a ring.
- Place it on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Cut slits 1-inch apart with a scissor or knife. Turn each slice on its side. Cover and let rise in warm place until double in size, about an hour. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Brush the bread ring with some egg wash and sprinkle the chopped almonds over if using. Bake for about 35 minutes until nicely golden brown.

They look absloutely stunning and yummy.
Go the poppy seeds Ange. This looks light and fluffy and like something I want.......Merry Christmas miss bread queen
Just gorgeous! Love the filling and sprinkling of nuts! I made a similar bread to be shared on Sunday, but I drizzled with icing and lost the beautiful look that yours showcases so perfectly! Merry Christmas, my friend!!!
Such a good tea time treat Angie! I read your post about Tangzhong starter, very interesting I have to try it. I'm not very good with starter...this made with flour and water seems easy.
It's gorgeous Angie and the shape of the dough is amazing. Would also be good with espresso.

That makes a lovely presentation, and I'll bet it tastes great, too! Beautiful.
Such a perfect mix of winter ingredients for an afternoon coffee. This is my preferred cake.
Angie , that is one pretty yummy bread ! The tangzhong is certainly a great addition for making bread :D
Your knowledge of yeast breads blows me away....they all look so good, but most of all, they are unique. I love learning through your posts!
This is absolutely beautiful! It would be wonderful along side a big cup of tea - yum!
This is lovely! The bread must be very soft using Tangzhong starter!
It looks beautiful and delicious!
Merry Christmas ANgie hope you have the best new year to come ever!
What a festive bread to have for the holidays. I can almost smell it baking, XOXO
Never heard of that starter! A lovely bread ring indeed with tea, could have some now.
Wow,mindblowing and very beautiful bread ring.
Oh my! Another wonderful poppy seed recipe! I can't tell you how much I am enjoying these posts, Angie. Your bread is a stow stopper. Just beautiful and it sounds delicious. I can't wait to read more about that starter.
Heeeyy, I just posted something very similar to this! Happy Holidays Angie!

Poppyseed cake is one of the traditional things i used to have while while I was living in Lithuania. Grandma always used to make it on Christmas Eve :) I have abandoned that tradition myself, but maybe this year I will try making some cake, bread or something with poppyseed :)
It will be perfect for Christmas!
Angie, who would have thought something so beautiful could be made in a bread machine, wow! Your bread looks amazing, delicious and easy to put together, thanks!
Another beautiful post, Angie. This reminds me of a sweet bread I used to bake called a Swedish Tea Ring. Your bread ring would be perfect for Christmas morning.
I can't believe you made this yourself! I wouldn't even know where to begin. You really do need to open up a bakery. :)
What a beautiful bread! I am suffering from poppy seed envy because I keep seeing all these lovely bakes made from poppy seed but they are unfortunately banned locally so I can only admire yours online..
This totally is going to have to be Christmas breakfast. Nothing else will suffice!
LOVING the poppyseed theme! And I bet they were just delicious with the almonds! YUM! (and beautiful!). HUGS!
Beautiful ring and it sound so great. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Oh my you did an amazing job.
These bread is looking awesome. Very indicative of the holidays and great presentation.
Absolutely gorgeous loaf of bread, and the poppy seed filling sounds amazing!!!
Learned something new today, Tangzhong starter, thanks for the info. Your bread ring is gorgeous, too pretty to cut into.
Oh, how much I love this recipe using tangzhong starter! I can't find ground poppy seed, maybe I'll use ground black sesame instead! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Angie!
Love tangzhong bread very much. Your kneading is so beautiful.
Beautiful bread, with my favorite type of filling. I love the idea of pre-slicing the bread to display what's inside - makes it all the more tempting!
What an incredibly delicious looking wreath, and the dough looks wonderful too. I love the shape and how festive the ring turned out.
What a beautiful ring!It sounds delicious and perfect for the holidays!!!!
Happy holidays,Angie!
This is stunning! What a beautiful recipe and presentation.

This is gorgeous – what a visual treat to get me going this morning!
Lovely bread as always! Here's wishing you a very Happy and Blessed Christmas!
I need to try this tanzong starter method. Delicious bread Angie.
I need to move next door to you. You just tantalize me with your breads. This is indeed a beauty. Happy Holidays, Angie from my home to yours!
un régal pour les yeux et pour le palais la couronne est superbe bravo
bonne soirée
This looks wonderful for the holiday season. I can pick up the poppy seeds mixture at a local store all made up and ready to go for such a cheap price. I've made swirl cookies and we all loved them. I know we would love this, and I would make it except for the tanzong starter...I need to try this!
Lovely, lovely holiday recipe. I wish I had time to tackle it. Happy holidays!
Oh my goodness that looks so good! And so pretty, could really dress up a holiday table :)
Hi Angie, the bread ring looks really delicious! Reminds me of a wreath for Christmas ;) Merry Christmas to you and your family, happy holidays!
