VOISILMÄPULLAT- Cardamom pulla with a sugar/butter mixture in the center

 

 

Pulla Ingredients:

- 1 ½ cup warm milk
- 11g dry yeast
- 1 egg
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 ½ tsp. cardamom
- 3 1/3 cup white flour
- 5 tbsp. butter (melted butter)

Butter Filling Ingredients:
- 5 tbsp. butter (soft)
- 2 tbsp. white sugar
- 2 tbsp. white flour
- 1 egg (beaten) for shine

Method:

- Add the dry yeast into the lukewarm milk. Mix with a whisk. Add the egg, sugar, cardamom, salt and some of the flour. Mix the dough until smooth.
- Gradually add the remaining flour until the dough comes off the edges of the bowl easily. Add the soft butter. Let the dough rise under a tea towel at room temperature until the dough has doubled in size.
- Gently knead the dough. On a floured surface divide the dough into 16 pieces and roll into balls. Place on a baking paper directly or into muffin papers on top of baking paper. Make sure that if you do not use muffin papers, that your pulla has enough space to spread out a bit as they bake.
- Let the formed pulla rise well under a tea towel.
- Poke your finger in the middle of each pulla a bit over half way down. Brush the top of each pulla with the beaten egg.
- Scoop a small spoonful of your filling and place into each hole you made in the pulla.
- Sprinkle some sugar on top of each pulla before putting them in the oven.
- Bake at 392°F for 12-15 min or until cooked through and golden in color.

Enjoy! ♡
