Serves 1
Directions
- 1In a bowl, add the warm milk, sugar, and yeast, then leave to bloom for 5 minutes.
- 2Add the egg and whisk well.
- 3Mix in the melted butter.
- 4Add the flour, ground cardamom, and salt.
- 5Mix until it forms a shaggy dough.
- 6Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it until it's still tacky but doesn't stick to your hands anymore.
- 7Place the dough into an oiled bowl, cover it, and leave it in a dark, warm place until it has risen.
- 8Place the risen dough into a deep oven dish lined with parchment paper.
- 9Create small indentations in the dough with your fingers.
- 10Cover the dough and leave it to rise for another hour.
- 11Meanwhile, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- 12Add the brown sugar and cinnamon to the melted butter and mix, leaving it to simmer.
- 13Remove the topping mixture from the heat.
- 14Once the dough has risen again, make deeper indentations with your fingers, similar to focaccia.
- 15Drizzle the melted sugar and cinnamon topping all over the dough, ensuring it seeps into the holes.
- 16Place the dish into a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius and bake for about 25 minutes until golden and crispy.
