1 pk egg
step
Scented nutcake for coffee or hot tea.
1.
Dough: In a deciliter of warm milk, stir the yeast, a tablespoon of sugar, a tablespoon of flour and let it rise (15 minutes).
2.
Sieve both flours and salt into a larger bowl, make a well in the centre and add the remaining milk, sugar, egg yolk, honey, rum and sourdough starter.
3.
Knead the dough in the bowl for a while, add the softened butter and continue kneading. First in a bowl, then transfer to a floured board and process until smooth and elastic (10 minutes).
4.
Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about an hour.
5.
Filling: melt the butter in a saucepan, add the milk, rum, sugar, add the honey and finally stir in the ground nuts and cinnamon. We want to have a well spreadable filling of a firmer consistency. So add more milk as needed.
6.
Divide the risen dough into two parts and roll each into a rectangular strip about 5mm thick. Spread half of the filling on each sheet, fold in the edges and roll into a wrapper.
7.
Transfer the nutcakes to a baking tray lined with baking paper, cover and leave to proof well for an hour.
8.
Before baking, brush them with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 30 minutes.
9.
Good taste!
