Ingredients

  • 500 g flour
  • 1 cube yeast (42 g)
  • 50 g sugar
  • 200 ml lukewarm milk
  • 1 egg
  • 100 g Soft Butter
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • butter (for the baking tray)
  • flour (for the work surface)
  • organic rose petals
  • colored eggs

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Stir the yeast into the milk with 1 tsp sugar until smooth, then combine with the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and knead with hand mixer attachments until the dough lifts from the bowl edges and is smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes in a warm place (oven at 50°C).

  2. 2.

    Knead the dough well on a floured surface, shape into a log, cut into seven equal pieces, roll each into a 20 cm long rope and coil into a pretzel shape.

  3. 3.

    Grease a baking sheet. Brush a small metal ring (~10 cm) with oil, place it in the center of the tray, and arrange the dough coils around the ring.

  4. 4.

    Whisk egg yolk with milk and brush over the ring. Bake the Easter wreath in a preheated oven (center rack, 180°C) for about 30 minutes. Remove, let cool, take out the ring, place the wreath on a plate, add colored eggs to the center, and sprinkle rose petals.
