  • Preparation: 138 min
  • Cooking: 17 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (131 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 55 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 15 g Sugar
  • 18 g Butter, unsalted
  • 20 g Eggs, whole, raw
  • 20 g Milk, whole
  • 1 g Yeast, active dry
  • 0.5 g Salt
  • 1 g Vanilla extract

Method

  1. Warm the milk slightly and dissolve the yeast in it with a pinch of the sugar; let stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Set aside about a fifth of the flour, sugar and butter to make the crackled topping paste later.
  3. Mix the rest of the flour, sugar, salt, egg and vanilla with the yeast mixture, then knead in most of the remaining butter until smooth and soft, about 8 minutes; cover and let rise in a warm place for 1.5 hours until doubled. This is 1 portion (one roll); multiply everything by 10 for a full batch of conchas.
  4. Rub the reserved flour, sugar and butter together into a paste, then shape it into a thin disk and press it over the risen dough ball, scoring a shell pattern into it with a knife.
  5. Place on a tray, let rise again for 30 minutes, then bake at 180°C (355°F) for 15-18 minutes until golden.
