exceptional side dish, especially good with game dishes

For the dough, mix all of the listed ingredients and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes. For the filling, finely dice the bacon and finely chop the trimmed and washed leek. Sauté both in butter, add the crème fraîche and season with parsley, salt (be careful, the bacon already has some salt!) and pepper. Take equal-sized pieces of dough, flatten them, add a little leek and bacon filling to the center and seal tightly all around. Place the filled pieces of dough close together in a greased baking dish, brush with melted butter and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (top/bottom heat) for about 1/2 hour until golden brown. To serve, carefully separate the Buchteln from each other.
