Mannik glass

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a manna glass? Prepare your food. Take a glass with a volume of 200 ml. To avoid weighing the butter, you can also measure it in a glass - you will need a little less than half a glass of melted butter. You can use margarine instead of butter, and baking powder instead of baking soda. Kefir is suitable for any fat content.

2. STEP 2

   

   Take a deep bowl and beat the eggs into it. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush. Pour kefir into them, then add sugar and semolina. Mix everything with a whisk and leave to stand for 20-30 minutes to allow the semolina to swell.

3. STEP 3

   

   While the semolina is swelling, melt and then cool the butter. At the end of this recipe you will find an article on how to choose the right semolina to get excellent results.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour the butter and vegetable oil into the standing mixture, add sifted flour mixed with soda to it. It is important to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen. Then the baked goods will turn out airy and rise well during baking.

5. STEP 5

   

   Mix the products with a whisk until completely homogeneous. The result should be a thick but flowing dough. If it turns out too steep (this will be affected by the thickness of kefir, the size of the eggs, and the properties of the flour), then dilute it with kefir.

6. STEP 6

   

   Take a suitable baking dish. Grease it with a small amount of vegetable oil and sprinkle with semolina - by sticking to the oil, it will form a crispy crust and prevent sticking. I bake in silicone, there is no need to lubricate it. Pour the dough into the mold and smooth the top.

7. STEP 7

   

   Bake the manna in the oven, preheated to 180°C, for 40-50 minutes. The exact time will depend on your oven and the size of the cake. You can read more about the operating features of ovens in the article about ovens. The link is at the end of the recipe. Check doneness with a wooden skewer - it will come out dry from the center. The top of the manna will turn brown. Remove the finished manna from the oven, cool and remove from the mold.

8. STEP 8

   

   Serve a glass of manna with kefir to the table, sprinkled with powdered sugar. Bon appetit!

I baked a glass of semolina for tea. A simple and straightforward recipe, familiar from childhood. Only my mother used margarine instead of butter. I kneaded the dough using kefir with a fat content of 2.5%. My semolina is ordinary, not very small, so it swells well. The first part of the dough rested for 20 minutes; it didn’t last longer due to the heat in the kitchen. After adding flour and soda, the dough turned out to be quite thick. Yes, I also added a pinch of salt, our favorite site taught us to do this)). For some reason, in the same silicone mold, I get pale baked goods. Therefore, I took a metal form, very wide. To prevent the dough from looking lonely in it, I placed thin slices of apples on top. My manna was baked for 45 minutes until golden brown. Despite its wide shape, it turned out to be quite lush! The dough is so fluffy, crumbly, soft! The taste of manna is classic, pleasant, soda is not noticeable. Smells good, fresh baked goods. Thanks for the recipe! I recommend!
