Ingredients<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 \u00bd tsp dry yeast
1 tbsp sugar (for activating yeast) + extra for sprinkling layers
60 ml (\u00bc cup) lukewarm milk
2 eggs
150 g (5.3 oz) butter, melted
8 g (1 tbsp) vanilla sugar
Salt, to taste
~350 g (2\u2153 cups) all-purpose flour
White or cane sugar, for sprinkling layers
Directions
Activate the Yeast:
In a small bowl, mix dry yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, and lukewarm milk.
Stir well and let sit for 10 minutes, until frothy.
Prepare the Dough:
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Pour in the activated yeast mixture and mix well.
Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms.
Rest the Dough:
Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm place for 30 minutes, allowing it to rise.
Roll and Layer with Sugar:
Roll out the risen dough on a lightly floured surface into a large flat layer.
Sprinkle half of the dough with sugar.
Fold the dough in half and roll it out again.
Repeat this process two more times (sprinkle, fold, and roll).
Once the dough has been folded and rolled multiple times, sprinkle the entire surface with sugar.Cut the Dough:
Use a knife or pastry cutter to divide the dough into small pieces.
Bake:
Place dough pieces on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180\u00b0C (350\u00b0F) for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and lightly caramelized.
Cool and Serve:
