Comment préparer Baba Au Rhum
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of flour. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
- While the yeast mixture rises, cream together 7 tablespoons of softened butter, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 tablespoons of flour in an electric mixer or food processor until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gently fold the remaining flour into the risen yeast mixture. Gradually add the butter-egg mixture, beating until a thick batter forms.
- Grease an 8-inch bundt pan with 1 tablespoon of softened butter, ensuring all surfaces are coated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling it about halfway.
- Cover the pan with a clean cloth and let the batter rise until it reaches the top of the pan (about 1-1.5 hours).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is nicely browned.
- Meanwhile, prepare the rum syrup: In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the syrup thickens slightly to about 3 cups.
- Remove from heat and stir in the rum.
- Once the baba is baked, immediately remove it from the oven and carefully pour the warm rum syrup over the cake, allowing it to soak completely.
- Let the baba cool in the pan for 45 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
- Decorate with candied fruits and whipped cream, if desired, and serve.
