Ingredients
- 500 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 7 grams instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 250 milliliters lukewarm milk
- 80 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 1 piece large egg, beaten
- 10 milliliters vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Step 2
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the lukewarm milk, melted butter, and beaten egg.
Step 3
Mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon or your hands until the dough starts to come together in a shaggy mass.
Step 4
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth, elastic, and slightly tacky to the touch.
Step 5
Coat a large bowl with the vegetable oil. Place the dough into the bowl, turning it a few times to coat it with the oil.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and place it in a warm, draft-free area to rise for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Step 7
Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release trapped air. Transfer it to a lightly floured surface and roll or stretch it out as needed for your strudel recipe.
Step 8
Proceed with your preferred filling and rolling method, or as instructed in your strudel recipe.
