ingredients :

For the clever dough:

Announcement

  • 300 ml of milk (lukewarm)
  • 50g seed oil
  • 1 sachet of instant yeast for savory preparations
  • 450 g of 00 flour
  • 10 g of salt
  • 1 egg

For garnish :

  • 3 slices of cooked ham
  • 3 slices of cheese (such as Emmental, Fontina, Provolone, etc.)

For the gilding:

  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons of milk

Tools :

  • A shaped cake mold 24 cm in diameter

Preparation:

  1. To prepare, start by making the milk batter.
  2. In a bowl, pour the lukewarm milk and add the extra virgin olive oil and the instant yeast for savory preparations.
  3. Mix everything using a hand whisk and add the 00 flour.
  4. Knead by hand and also add the salt.
  5. Continue to knead until you have a smooth, fluffy ball of dough.
  6. Transfer the ball of milk dough to a lightly floured work surface and divide it into 7 pieces of 130 g each.
  7. With floured hands, flatten each piece and place a slice of cooked ham and a small piece of cheese in the center.
  8. Close the piece of dough by pinching the ends with your fingers.
  9. With your hands, give a round shape, thus forming a small stuffed milk bun.
  10. Do the same with all the other pieces of dough and you will get 7 milk buns stuffed with ham and cheese.
  11. Oil a crown-shaped cake mold and place the resulting buns in it
  12. Brush the surface with a mixture of egg yolk and milk.
  13. Bake the rustic Easter wreath in a preheated oven in static mode at 180°C for approximately 30 minutes.
  14. If you notice that the surface is starting to brown quickly, cover it with a sheet of baking paper and continue cooking.
  15. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool slightly before unmolding it.
