Day 04 - What you ate today

Let's share the bestest thing in the world when it comes to coffee-bread. Or whatever one would call fika-bröd in English. Also the reason as to why my kitchen is a mess. Thank God for the individual who invented the dishwasher! 






  • 150 grams butter
  • 5dl milk
  • 50 grams yeast
  • 1dl sugar
  • 1tsp salt
  • 1,4 L wheat flour
  • 2 tsp grounded cardamom

    Filling
     
  • 150 grams butter (room temperature)
  • ½ cup sugar
  • cinnamon
  • cardamom

    Topping
  • 1 egg
  • Pearl sugar

  1. Break the yeast in a bowl. 
  2. Melt the butter and add milk. 
  3. Warm it up until it’s warmish.(37°C  / 98°F)  
  4. Now pour the mixture over the yeast. 
  5. Finally add the other ingredients and work the dough. 
  6. Let the dough rise under a kitchen towel for about 30 min or until it has doubled the size.
  7. Prepare the filling by mixing the butter (room temperature) with the sugar.
  8. After the dough has rested, divide it into four pieces. 
  9. Roll the first piece out so that it is about 1/3 inch thick. 
  10. Butter it with the butter/sugar mixture and sprinkle it with cinnamon. 
  11. Now you roll it up. 
  12. Take a sharp knife and slice it into ten pieces. 
  13. Put the pieces on a baking tray with baking paper or in paper liners. 
  14. Do this with the other three pieces of dough too.
  15. Now the rolls have to rest another 40 minutes, under a kitchentowel. 
  16. Use the last 20 minutes to preheat the oven to 225°C /482°F
  17. Beat up an egg and brush egg on the rolls and sprinkle pearl sugar on them.
    Put them in the oven for 5-8 min.
