  • Cooking: 25 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (121 g)
  • Difficulty: Hard
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten, nut

Ingredients

  • 50 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 20 g Milk, whole
  • 12 g Butter, unsalted
  • 20 g Sugar
  • 10 g Eggs, whole, raw
  • 1 g Yeast, active dry

Method

  1. Warm the milk and dissolve the yeast and a little of the sugar in it; let stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Mix in the egg, melted butter and salt, then work in the flour to a soft, elastic dough; knead well and let rise for 1 hour.
