Mamite pitka
A layered, twisted round bread brushed with fat between layers.
Ingredients
| 200 мл. | fresh milk |
| 2 | eggs (one yolk for brushing) |
| 2 супени лъжици | yogurt |
| 2 супени лъжици | oil |
| 1 чаена лъжичка | sugar |
| 1 чаена лъжичка | salt |
| 7 грама | dry yeast |
| 550 грама | flour type 550 |
| — | butter, oil or lard, for brushing layers |
| — | sesame, for sprinkling |
Instructions
- In the mixer bowl I put the warm milk, sugar and yeast. I wait 2-3 minutes for the yeast to activate. I add the eggs, oil, yogurt and salt. Gradually I add the flour and knead until the dough separates from the walls of the bowl. I leave it to rest - 20 minutes.
- I divide the dough into 4 parts and shape balls. I roll each ball into a circle and brush with butter, oil or lard, placing the circles one on top of the other, with the last one not brushed. I place a cup in the center. The diameter is as desired. I cut the dough into 8 approximately equal parts. I twist each one twice.
- The shaped pitka rises until doubled in volume. I brush with the yolk stirred with 2-3 tbsp fresh milk. I sprinkle sesame. I bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees until golden.
