12pieces
  1. 400 gflour
  2. 260 mlwarm milk
  3. 4 tbspsugar
  4. 1 tspyeast
  5. 1/4 tspsalt
  6. 1 tspolive oil (optional)

Cooking Instructions

3hrs 10min
  1. 1

    In a bowl add milk, sugar and yeast, mix until it's creamy and frothy. Let it rest for 5min.

  2. 2

    Add flour to yeast mixture, combine and knead for 5min until well incorporated, let the dough be soft then rub olive oil and cover for 1 1/2hrs - 2hrs.

  3. 3

    Roll the dough and divide in pieces rolling them into a disk shape. Spread butter generously on top of each dough stacking them on top of each other. (For mine I roll a big circle then apply butter generously and fold)

  4. 4

    Wrap them with cling film and put in the fridge for 30min.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle some flour on rolling surface and roll the dough into a big circle/disk and cut into 12 triangles

  6. 6

    Make slits at the circumference and roll to the centre. Repeat the same process on all, you can make some decorations of choice.

  7. 7

    Line your baking tray then arrange them and let them rest for 30min or 1hr if you have time.

  8. 8

    Egg wash (you can sprinkle sesame, black, flax or chia seeds) and bake in a preheated oven for 30min. Bake at 200 degrees for the first 10min then 190 degrees for 20min. The layers are magical.

  9. 9

    Let them cool and enjoy with hot coffee
