Danish Cake

INGREDIENTS
  • 500g flour
  • 210g water
  • 25g eggs
  • 15g dry yeast
  • Salt, sugar
  • Honey, butter
  • Ohla Topfill
  • Pastry cream
INSTRUCTIONS
  • Combine the flour, water, eggs, dry yeast, salt, sugar, and honey, and mix until a smooth dough forms. Cover the dough with a warm cloth and let it rest at 24°C for 1 hour. Once the dough has risen, knead it gently to remove air bubbles.
  • Place the dough in the freezer for 5 minutes, then transfer it to the fridge for 15 minutes.
  • Put the butter in the middle of the dough, fold the dough over, and roll it out to a thickness of 7mm. Fold the top and bottom edges of the dough in, then fold the dough in half and chill for another 15 minutes.
  • After chilling, roll the dough out to a thickness of 3.5mm. Cut it into long strips about the width of a thumb.
  • For each pastry, use two strips. Twist one strip lightly and shape it into a circle. Then twist the second strip and wrap it around the outside of the first one.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C for 15 minutes. Whisk one egg with a tablespoon of water and brush it over the dough. Bake for 25-35 minutes at 200°C until golden brown.
Finally, top with Ohla Topfill for decoration and enjoy!
