Puddingbrezeln
Ingredients:
– 1 packet active dry yeast
– 1 cup warm milk
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 large egg, beaten
– 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup vanilla pudding
– Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. Add sugar, melted butter, and beaten egg to the yeast mixture. Stir well to combine.
3. Gradually mix in the flour and salt until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into small portions. Roll each piece into a long rope and shape it into a pretzel form.
7. Place a dollop of vanilla pudding in the center of each pretzel, then gently fold and pinch the dough to seal the pudding inside.
8. Arrange the filled pretzels on the prepared baking sheet and let them rise again for 15-20 minutes.
9. Bake the Puddingbrezeln for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.
11. Serve the Puddingbrezeln warm and enjoy the delightful combination of soft, sweet dough with a creamy pudding filling.
