Instructions
- Sieve the flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center.
- Crumble the yeast and mix with 100 ml of the lukewarm milk. Pour into the well, cover loosely, and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Add the remaining 150 ml of lukewarm milk, 70 g sugar, liquid butter, salt, lemon zest, and the egg to the dough.
- Knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Cover with a damp cloth and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Divide the risen dough into pieces of roughly 60 g each.
- Form each piece into a ball, then flatten and gently press from the center outward to create a shallow cup with a raised rim, about 12 cm in diameter.
- Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prick the flat bottom and sides with a fork multiple times, avoiding the rim.
- Bake for 15-25 minutes until the rims are golden brown and the bottoms are baked through.
