Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make poppy seed rolls from yeast dough in the oven? Measure out the required ingredients for the test. Warm the milk slightly. Melt the butter in advance in the microwave or in a water bath. How to do this correctly, read at the end of the recipe. Cool the melted butter to room temperature.

Step 2

Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the yeast, 1 tsp. sugar and about half of warm milk. The milk should be just warm, but not scalding, otherwise the yeast in it will die. Stir and leave the yeast mixture to activate for 10-12 minutes. A foam “cap” should appear on the surface. How to properly replace dry yeast with fresh, read the link at the end of the recipe.

Step 3

Step 3
In a large bowl with high sides, beat the egg with the remaining sugar and salt until smooth.

Sift flour into the resulting mass. The flour must be sifted so that it is enriched with oxygen. Then the dough will be airy and the baked goods will turn out fluffy. Do not add all the flour at once; you may need less of it than indicated in the recipe. Add about 2/3 of the flour and mix the dough with a spoon.

Step 8
Add the rest of the flour in small portions, mixing the dough with your hands. When kneading, focus not on the amount of flour, but on the consistency of the dough. You can read more about flour and its properties in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.
