Fiamminga is a quick and simple dessert that adds a touch of elegance to any meal. This recipe, inspired by Laura Adamache, combines a fluffy dough texture with the caramelized sweetness of sugar, resulting in an irresistible treat. Let's get started!
Ingredients:
- 500 g flour
- 100 g water
- 100 g milk
- 30 g fresh yeast or 9 g freeze-dried yeast
- 100 g butter (at room temperature)
- 50 g sugar
- A pinch of salt
- Zest of one orange (preferably organic for intense flavor)
- 2 packets of vanilla sugar
- 50 g cold butter (for filling)
- 100 g brown cane sugar (for caramelization)
Preparation:
1. Preparing the dough: Start by sifting the flour into a large bowl. Create a well in the center of the flour and add the yeast. If using fresh yeast, make sure it is well crumbled. Now gradually add the lukewarm water and milk, mixing with a spatula or your hands to form a dough. Add the room temperature butter, sugar, salt, orange zest, and vanilla sugar. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth.
2. Rising the dough: Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place, away from drafts, until it doubles in size (about 1 hour). Another option is to use a bread machine, which will make this step easier.
3. Shaping and second rise: After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. You can transfer it directly onto a sheet of parchment paper, so you won’t need to move it later. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin, shaping it to fit your baking tray. Let it rise again for 1 hour.
4. Preparing for baking: Once the dough has risen again, use your fingers to make small holes on its surface. Place small cubes of cold butter in these holes. This step will add a rich flavor and delicious texture. Then sprinkle the cane sugar over the entire surface of the dough.
5. Baking: Preheat the oven to 230 degrees Celsius. Place the tray in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the dough turns golden and fluffy. It's important to monitor the baking closely to avoid burning.
6. Cooling and serving: After baking, carefully remove the dessert from the oven along with the parchment paper, and let it cool on a rack. Once cooled, cut it into portions and serve with pleasure!
Useful tips:
- You can experiment with flavors by adding a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla essence to the dough.
- If you want a stronger taste, use salted butter instead of unsalted.
- Fiamminga can be served plain or with a vanilla sauce, cream, or ice cream.
This quick and simple dessert is perfect for enjoying with loved ones, and its enticing flavors will turn any meal into an unforgettable moment. Enjoy!
