This simple and quick recipe, combining the aroma of sugar with the sweetness of raisins, will surely delight your taste buds. Let's see how we can prepare these delicious dumplings step by step. Ingredients: - 500 g wheat flour - 25 g fresh yeast - 150 ml lukewarm milk - 100 g sugar - 100 g melted butter - 2 eggs - 1 teaspoon salt - 200 g raisins - 1 tablespoon vanilla extract - Grated zest of one lemon (optional) Preparing the starter: 1. Start by preparing the starter, which is essential for getting a fluffy dough. In a small bowl, mix 25 g of fresh yeast with 1 heaping tablespoon of flour and 1 teaspoon of sugar. 2. Add 50 ml of lukewarm milk (not hot, so you don’t kill the yeast) and mix well. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for 15 minutes until it forms a foam. Preparing the dough: 3. In a large bowl, put 500 g of flour, 100 g of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gently mix the dry ingredients. 4. Make a well in the center of the flour and add the risen starter, 2 beaten eggs, 100 g of melted butter, the remaining 100 ml of lukewarm milk, and the vanilla extract. If you want an extra flavor, you can also add the grated lemon zest. 5. Start mixing the ingredients with a spatula or with your hands until you get a homogeneous dough. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little flour, but be careful not to overdo it. Letting the dough rise: 6. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place, away from drafts, for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size. Adding the raisins and shaping the dumplings: 7. After the dough has risen, add 200 g of raisins and knead gently to incorporate them evenly. If you like, you can also use other dried fruits, such as cranberries or apricots, for a more exotic version. 8. Take a piece of dough and shape it into balls or dumplings the size of a golf ball. Place the dumplings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a little space between them to allow for rising. Baking: 9. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Let the dumplings rise for another 15-20 minutes on the tray, covered with a towel. 10. Bake the dumplings in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they turn golden and sound hollow when tapped. Serving and suggestions: Once the sweet dumplings with raisins are ready, let them cool slightly on a rack. They are delicious served warm, with butter or fruit jam. You can also dust them with powdered sugar for an elegant look. A personal note: Try adding some finely chopped nuts to the dough to give them a crunchy texture and an extra flavor. These dumplings are also great for breakfast, paired with a cup of coffee or tea. Now that you’ve discovered how to make these sweet dumplings with raisins, all that’s left is to get cooking. Enjoy the inviting aroma that will fill your home and the final result that you will savor with your loved ones!
