Zubereitung von Baked Paczki For Mardi Gras
- In a large mixer bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 teaspoons undissolved active dry yeast, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup warm milk (105-115°F), 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons honey until the butter is melted and the mixture is very warm.
- Add the warm milk mixture, 2 tablespoons rum (optional), 2 large egg yolks, and 1 whole large egg to the flour mixture.
- Beat on low speed for 1 minute.
- Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
- Gradually add enough remaining flour (about 1/2 - 3/4 cup) to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3-4 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/2-inch thickness.
- Use a 3-inch cookie cutter or biscuit cutter to cut out as many rounds as possible.
- Place the paczki rounds about 2-3 inches apart on parchment-lined or lightly greased baking sheets.
- Re-roll and cut out any remaining dough.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- For the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter.
- Set aside.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Brush the paczki with the honey-butter glaze and continue baking for 2-4 minutes, or until light golden brown.
- If desired, brush again with any remaining glaze.
- Let cool slightly, then dust or roll in granulated sugar or powdered sugar.
- For fillings (Fruit, Custard, or Chocolate):
- Use a sharp knife to make a small slit in the side of each paczki.
- Use a small spoon or piping bag to gently insert your desired filling.
- For chocolate chips, gently poke a small hole and insert 1 teaspoon of chocolate chips while still warm.
