Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 package (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • Filling of your choice (cinnamon-sugar, nuts, fruits, etc.)

Directions

  1. Activate the yeast by dissolving it in warm milk with a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and beaten egg. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic. Let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
  4. Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the filling evenly over the surface.
  5. Roll up the dough tightly from the long side to form a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
  6. Place the dough spirals on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each spiral.
  7. Cover and let the spirals rise again until puffy. Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown and fragrant.
  8. Enjoy the Hefeschnecke warm or at room temperature, savoring each flaky layer and aromatic filling.
