Carnival Kreppel
The perfect carnival kreppel recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 150 ml Milk
- 40 g Butter
- 280 g Flour
- 4 g Dry yeast
- 50 g Sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tsp Organic lemon zest
- 1 Egg size M.
- 30 g Sour cream
- 0,5 tsp Cardamom
- 750 g Frying fat approx.
- 150 g Raw lard
- Cinnamon and sugar mixture for rolling
- Preheat the oven to 35 °. Warm the milk and dissolve the butter in it. Mix the flour, yeast, sugar, salt and lemon zest in a bowl and knead with the egg, sour cream and the butter / milk solution. Do this until the dough turns smoothly away from the bowl wall. Seal the bowl and put it in the warm oven for 1 hour. After that, the rather soft dough should have doubled.
- Slowly melt the frying fat together with the lard in a higher saucepan over medium heat and increase it a little just before frying. Before deep-frying, hold the handle of a wooden ladle or a wooden shashlik skewer in it. If bubbling bubbles form on it, it can be deep-fried. But keep an eye on the heat. It shouldn’t be too hot, otherwise they’ll brown too quickly and won’t rise so fluffy.
- Sprinkle the work surface very well with flour, put the dough on it and just roll it all around so that it no longer sticks. Then plate it with the flat of your hands (rolling wood is not required) as rectangular as possible about 8 mm thick and cut it into smaller rectangles of 8 x 5 cm. In each case, make a cut lengthways in the middle with a sharp knife, which must end 1 cm before the edges of the narrow sides. Then pull the tip of one narrow side through the opening created (pulling them apart a little and they become flatter). But only ever do this with 3 pieces, then slide them straight into the hot fat and let them fry until golden brown on both sides. During this time, cut, beat, deep-fry the next 3, etc.
- Lift the finished crepe out of the fat, drain and roll immediately in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. …………. finished.
- A handwritten cookbook fell into my grandmother’s hands today and I had to try these “things” right away ……………. you can eat … ;-)))
