These crescent rolls are ideal as a quick dessert or snack, easy to prepare and extremely tasty. Additionally, they can be filled with various jams or nuts, giving them a personalized touch. Preparation time: 30 minutes Rising time: 1 hour Baking time: 20-25 minutes Total: 1 hour and 30 minutes Servings: 20 crescent rolls Ingredients: - 500 g wheat flour - 25 g fresh yeast - 250 ml lukewarm milk - 100 g sugar (plus 1 tablespoon for activating the yeast) - 100 ml oil (or melted butter) - 1 egg (for brushing the crescent rolls) - A pinch of salt - Powdered sugar (for decoration, optional) - Apricot jam, plum jam, or ground nuts (for filling) Step by step: 1. Activating the yeast: In a small bowl, mix the fresh yeast with a few tablespoons of lukewarm milk and a tablespoon of sugar. Cover with a towel and let it sit for 10-15 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating that the yeast is active. 2. Preparing the dough: In a large bowl, sift the flour and add a pinch of salt. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the activated yeast mixture. Add the remaining lukewarm milk and oil (or melted butter). Mix the ingredients with a spatula or by hand until a smooth dough forms. 3. Kneading: On a well-floured work surface, knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, but be careful not to overdo it. 4. Rising: Place the dough in a bowl greased with a little oil, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size. 5. Shaping the crescent rolls: Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto the work surface and divide it into 4-5 pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle, then cut it into triangles. Place a teaspoon of jam or a filling of ground nuts at the base of each triangle and roll it up towards the tip, forming the crescent. 6. Baking: Arrange the crescent rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Beat the egg and brush each crescent with it for a beautiful golden crust. Let them rise for another 15-20 minutes, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes, or until golden. 7. Serving: Once cooled, you can sprinkle powdered sugar on top for an elegant finish. These fluffy crescent rolls are delicious both warm and cold and pair perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee. Helpful tips: - You can add flavors like vanilla essence or lemon zest to the dough for an extra touch of flavor. - If you want a gluten-free version, replace the wheat flour with a special gluten-free flour for baking. - Try various fillings, such as melted chocolate or candied fruits, to change the flavor of the crescent rolls. These fluffy crescent rolls are a perfect choice for any occasion, whether it's a family meal or a gathering with friends. Their delicious taste and fluffy texture will surely delight everyone!
