Homemade twisted banitsa with butter
Method of preparation
- eggs - 3 pcs. (separate one yolk)
- sol - 1 tbsp is equal to
- sugar - 1 tbsp.
- fresh milk - 300 ml
- yogurt - 1 tbsp.
- oil - 6 tbsp.
- dry yeast - 1 packet
- flour - about 700 g
- cheese - 300 g for sprinkling
- butter - 100 g melted for spreading
- butter - 50 g in cubes for top
- Knead a soft dough from the dough ingredients, the ingredients should be at room temperature and the milk slightly warmed.
- Leave the dough in a warm place to double in size. Divide the risen dough into 8 equal parts, shape them into balls, brush them with a little oil (so they don't get a skin) and let them rest for 15 minutes.
- Grease the work surface with a little oil, roll out each ball individually and sequentially with a rolling pin, brushing with melted butter and sprinkling evenly with crumbled cheese.
- Roll them up and arrange them in a circle in a pre-oiled pan, starting from the middle and working towards the sides (like a snail).
- Let the shaped twisted banitsa increase in volume for about 30 minutes, brush it with the previously beaten egg yolk with 1 tbsp. oil, distribute the butter cubes on top and bake in a preheated 150 degree oven for 10 minutes until puffed up, then increase the temperature to 180 degrees until done and nicely browned.
- Homemade twisted banitsa with butter is very delicious.
