Ingredients
Product | amount |
wheat flour | 500 g |
milk 3.2% | 190 ml |
sugar | 240 g + 1 tbsp |
dry yeast | 7 g |
sour cream 30% | 200 g |
egg | 3 pcs. |
butter | 125 g |
salt | 1/4 tsp |
candied fruit / dried fruit | 70 g |
Step cooking
- For starters, over medium heat, slightly heat 190 ml of milk. After that, add 1 tablespoon to it. sugar, 7 g of dry yeast and 100 g of flour. Mix all the ingredients and leave in a warm place for 15-20 minutes.
- Next, in a deep plate we combine 3 eggs and 240 g of sugar. Whip with a blender until lush foam is formed.
- Now we take 125 g of butter and melt it in a water bath or in the microwave. Then let it cool slightly. Mixing the dough with yeast in 15 minutes, mix with melted butter, 200 g of sour cream and 1/4 tsp. salt. Mix everything with a mixer until smooth.
- Then the resulting mixture of ingredients is introduced to the eggs and sugar, without ceasing to beat everything with a blender.
- After that, to the finished mass, sift 400 g of flour, continuously stirring the mixture with a spatula to avoid the formation of lumps.
- When you get the dough, which in consistency will resemble thick sour cream, add 70 g of candied fruit or other dried fruits to it.
- Now we cover the plate with the dough with cling film and put it in a warm place.
- After the dough rises about 2 times, slightly crush it and lay it in 2 forms, pre-lubricating them with butter. Each form should be filled no more than half so that the dough does not go beyond its limits during baking.
- Before sending the forms into the oven, let them stand for a while so that the dough rises another 1.5 times.
- Then we bake Easter cakes for about 30-40 minutes, setting the temperature to 180 degrees. Be guided by the rosy color of baking and the dry skewer.
- When the cakes are cooled, you can coat them with protein cream and decorate with sprinkles.
