Recipe for simit
Simit ?♥️!
These delicious Turkish simit are a must-have for breakfast!
Super tasty with cream cheese inside ?
Ingredients
- 25 gram Yeast 1/2 package
- 400 gram Flour 4-500 grams
- 250 gram Water lukewarm
- 25 gram Cane Sugar
- 28 gram Oil
- 6 gram Salt
- 42 gram Syrup
- 1 pcs. Egg for brushing
- Sesame Seeds I used both toasted and regular
Instructions
- First, crumble the yeast and add a bit of the lukewarm water.
- When the yeast is dissolved, add the rest of the water.
- Then add flour, sugar, oil, and salt.
- Knead the dough and let it rise for about half an hour ♥️.
- Once the dough has risen, take a handful and roll it thin and long.
- Then gather the ends so the dough forms a round circle.
- Next, take the ends, flip them around so they twist around each other - and form a circle again.
- Next, mix the syrup with some water and dip the simit into it.
- Finally, brush with an egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Give them about 20 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) (fan-forced), and they are done.
