Receipe for brunsviger
Yeast bread topped with a sweet, gooey brown sugar topping.
Ingredients
- 1 x 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 1 package active yeast
- 3 x 1/4 cup flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 5 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Brown sugar topping
- 1 ½ cups butter
- 1 ½ cups dark brown sugar
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees (Danish oven)
- Warm milk. Pour into your stand mixer. Add yeast, stir until dissolved and let stand for 5 min.
- In a separate bowl measure out the dry ingredients and mix (flour, sugar and salt)
- Add dry ingredients to the yeast.
- Add softened butter cut into 1 tbsp pieces to the top of the dry ingredients
- With the dough hook mix on medium-low speed until the dough is smooth. The dough should be quite greasy.
- Let dough rest for 20 min in a warm place.
- Melt the sugar and the butter in a pan, heat while stirring.
- Press the dough into a rectangular cake and make some marks with your fingers or the back side of a spoon to form some dimples in the dough for the topping. Make sure to leave a higher edge so the filling will not fall off
- Add the topping onto the dough. Spread it out making sure not to let it go over the edges. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Bake for 20-25 min in a 200 degree oven (Danish oven).
- Let stand and allow the topping to cool before removing from the cake pans and cutting into pieces. If you don't wait at least a while you will lose most of your topping which would be no fun at all. We know it is hard to wait !
