Recipe: Bolus
Ingredients
(makes about 10 pieces):
- Dough
- 500 grams flour
- 15 grams granulated sugar
- 0.5 egg
- 10 grams salt
- 50 grams fresh yeast
- 215 ml water
- 50 ml milk
- 25 grams butter
- Sugar mix
- 250 grams dark brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
Preparation
Pre-heat the oven to 225 ºC. To make the dough, mix all ingredients – except the butter – together, by hand or in a machine. Knead them for 2 minutes. Then add the butter and knead well for 4 more minutes. Divide the dough into balls of 80 grams and let them stand for 20 minutes.
Roll out each ball of dough to a strand of 30 cm long. Mix the brown sugar and the cinnamon well together in a baking dish. Moisten the strand of dough with water, then roll it through the sugar mix. Remove the strand and roll it up into a tightly coiled round.
Cover a baking tray with a sheet of baking paper. On it, place the boluses. Let them rise 5 more minutes, then bake them in the oven for 7 minutes. Remove from the oven, immediately turn each bolus upside down and lay out on a big dish to cool.
