Rich sweet yeast dough

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make rich sweet yeast dough? Prepare all the ingredients for this. When purchasing yeast, be sure to look at the expiration date. Vegetable oil can be used either sunflower or olive, if desired.

2. STEP 2

   

   Heat the milk to a temperature of 37-40°C. If you don’t have a cooking thermometer, then you can easily determine the desired temperature literally by hand: you need to drop a drop of milk on the inside of your wrist. If the feeling is pleasant, not cold or hot, then the temperature is correct. Already at 45°C the yeast becomes uncomfortable and they work slower, and at 50°C they begin to die. Therefore, the most important point when working with dough is not to kill the yeast at the very beginning.

3. STEP 3

   

   In a bowl or other container, combine 1 tsp. sugar, 1 tsp. flour and dry yeast. Mix everything.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour in 50 ml of warm milk and stir, breaking up any lumps. All unbroken lumps may then end up in the dough and will have to be picked out. Therefore, it is better to take care of this in advance. Leave the yeast for 15 minutes to activate. A fluffy foam cap should appear on the surface. This means that the yeast is active and can be cooked further. If the cap still does not appear, then either the yeast is spoiled or the milk is overheated.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour the remaining milk from the saucepan into a deep bowl, add the egg, remaining sugar, soft butter, vegetable oil and a pinch of salt. Mix everything with a whisk.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour in activated yeast.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add sifted flour. You can add it in parts, I sift it directly into the dough. Please note that you may need more or less flour than I did. Focus on the consistency of the dough.

8. STEP 8

   

   Knead into a soft pliable dough. Due to the abundance of oil, it quickly stops sticking to your hands and kneads very quickly.

9. STEP 9

   

   Cover the dough with a towel and leave to rise for 1.5 hours in a warm place. After 50 minutes, knead the dough and put it back to rise.

10. STEP 10

    

    After this, you can work with the dough. You can use the dough to make buns with or without filling, and also make large pies, open or closed. Bon appetit!

We love baked goods very much. It's strawberry season. I wanted to make buns with fresh strawberries. I was looking for just such a dough recipe and found it) A rich sweet yeast dough that is easy to prepare. Thank you very much for your good advice on heating milk! I prepared the dough and combined the liquid and dry ingredients separately. I used odorless vegetable oil in the dough, and used homemade eggs, which is why the dough has a yellowish tint. I kneaded a very soft and tender dough. I had the butter dough rise in a warm oven. I proofed the yeast dough twice as recommended by the author. The dough turned out great! This dough is very easy to work with, it does not stick to your hands and molds well. My buns turned out very airy, sweet and tender. From fairly simple ingredients came a very good and manageable rich sweet yeast dough! Thanks to the author!

Delicious dough! We baked pies with chocolate, and liked the baked goods so much that the next day we baked pies with apples. Thanks for the recipe!
