Heart-shaped buns with dried figs
How to make Heart-shaped buns with dried figs Recipe "cuoricini ai fichi secchi" - Preparation time: 30 minutes – Cooking time: 15 minutes – Rising time: 1 hour 10 minutes
10 Servings
Ingredients:
10 dried figs
8 cups (1 kg) all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. plus 2 tsp. (25 g) fresh yeast, crumbled
2 1/8 cups (500 ml) lukewarm water
1/2 stick (50 g) unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp. (18 g) salt
Method:
In a medium bowl, cover the figs with water and let soak. Once they are softened, drain them and chop them into fine strips.
Put the flour on a clean work surface and make a well in the center. Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add the yeast mixture to the well.
Gradually start incorporating the yeast mixture into the flour until a loose dough starts to form, and begin to knead. Add the chopped dates and softened butter, and continue kneading until the dough is smooth, dry and elastic.
Cover the dough with a sheet of lightly greased plastic wrap and leave it to rest for about 10 minutes. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a thickness of about 3/4 inch (2 cm). Cut out dough with a heart-shaped pastry cutter.
Arrange the hearts, floured and about 1 inch apart, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let rise, covered with lightly greased plastic wrap, until they have doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Bake in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
