Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1,5 c + 2 tbsp. flour
4 Tbsp sugar
1/2 pkg fresh yeast - equal to 25 grams
1 pinch salt
2/3 c lukewarm milk
1/5 stick butter, softened
1/2 c butter or 1 stick of butter
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
4 Tbsp dark syrup - not molasses

Steps:

  • 1. Set aside the last three ingredients - it's the sugar mass on the top.
  • 2. Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk.
  • 3. Add all the dry ingredients into the liquid. Mix it lightly with a hand mixer or your kitchen machine, then add the soft butter.
  • 4. Mix it well on medium speed. Form a dough ball. Cover and let it rise for 20 min.
  • 5. Add the last three ingredients to a small pot and let it all melt on low heat - don't boil! When it's all an even mass turn off the heat.
  • 6. Take a 10" x 15" pan. Grease it or use baking sheet. Spread out the dough in the pan just using your hands. Poke holes into the dough with your fingers. Then pour over the sugar mass from the pot. Let it rise an extra 20 min. Before putting it in the oven poke the dough once more ... Here I used the handle of a big wooden spoon.
  • 7. Bake for 13-15 min on 350 F

My mother taught me to make this recipe when I was a very young child. I was always interested in learning how to bake and cook from a very young age. This is in honour of my mother's passing in March 2000. Thank you Mor!
