Jan 19, 2019
Panini dolci con bevanda di mandorle

INGREDIENTS

  • 340 g 00 flour
  • 200 g of Manitoba flour
  • 180ml almond drink (or milk)
  • 80 g of butter at room temperature
  • 30 g of sugar (increase if you want them sweet, with these doses they are quite 'neutral')
  • 30 ml of honey
  • 15 g of fresh brewer's yeast
  • 1 egg + 1 yolk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • to brush 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tablespoons of milk
  • sugar granules

PROCEDURE

  • Use a mixer or a planetary mixer with the hook and start by working 300 g of flour with the sifted Manitoba flour, the brewer's yeast dissolved in warm almond milk and the sugar.
  • Add the honey and continue to knead, add the egg and, when well incorporated, the yolk.
  • Add the butter in flakes, then the salt and continue working.
  • When the dough is well worked and kneaded, cover with cling film and let it rise until it doubles in volume (about 2 hours). I put it in the oven with the 'rising' function.
  • Take your leavened dough and divide it into balls of about 40/50 g, helping yourself with the remaining flour.
  • Place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper and leave to rise for another hour (double in volume).
  • Brush with the egg yolk mixed with milk and cover with granulated sugar (I also used colored sugar on some).
  • Cook in a fan oven at 180° for approximately 12/15 minutes (until golden).
  • Take them out of the oven and let them cool. Eat them fresh out of the oven, they are super fragrant, otherwise keep them away from air.
  • You can fill them with jam or hazelnut spread.
